  • I would just say "Thanks that's great!" with your forename and county and name of prize won. It's just to prove to people like me (who never win mag comps!!) that it's really possible. I don't think I would send a picture though :-s (unless I had a super amzing one of me!)
    WELL DONE! x

    Congrats MrsGreenwood on your prize!

    I've won with WOTV which I think are the same/simillar company and my email was identical to that. I just replied saying "Thank you for my prize etc...." I never submitted a photo or commented on the facebook page and recieved the prize a week or so after replying to the email.

    I also received an email today from Pick Me Up magazine, I was a winner of a potato kit, courtesy of Crisp N' Dry.

    I emailed [EMAIL="ipcprizes@dmri.co.uk"]ipcprizes@dmri.co.uk[/EMAIL] thanking them, and posted on their Facebook wall.
