    I HAVE 50 goody bags containing a selection of the winning products to give away – each with a value of more than £100.
    To win one, tell me in no more than 25 words which of the products is your favourite and why. (all products on the webpage :))


    Write your answer on a postcard or the back of an envelope, together with your name and address, and send to: Product Of The Year, The Sun, 3 Thomas More Square, London E98 1SN.
    I will pick the ones I consider best after the contest closes on February 14.

    searched url, good luck :)

    OMG, I cant believe I won something! Just received a big box, with a bag of all the goodies in the link. Something for everyone in the house!

    Brill, brill, brill. (As you can tell I'm very excited!)

    Just to say a special THANK YOU to jedisarah and to everyone else that posts comps on here. x

    Hi LivFran, this has come up before and the Express T&Cs state that postcards must be sent separately for each competition, I presume the same will apply for the Star.

    For comps that are commonly posted on the list it is likely that at some point one of the posters will have contacted the publication to see if the comps can go aoie and as a rule if they aren't listed on the first page then it is separate entries.

    The price rises on stamps will probably reduce the number of entries to postal comps and will no doubt lead to a reduction in postal comps, I have already reduced postal comp entries significantly as I could have paid for a holiday on what I spent last year!

    2025 Comps 7127: wins 5: value £1402
    2024 Comps 13526: wins 13: value £1475

    Text ELVIS followed by either A, B, C or D to 63103.

    Answer: C) Memphis

    Texts cost £1 plus your standard network rate.

    For every second text entry you make, an extra free entry will automatically be entered into the prize database.

    For example, 1st TEXT = 1 entry made (1 TEXT charged at £1 + std network rate). 2nd TEXT = 2 entries made (1 TEXT charged at £1 + std network rate and 1 TEXT not charged). 3rd TEXT = 1 entry made (1 TEXT charged at £1 + std network rate). 4th TEXT = 2 entries made (1 TEXT charged at £1 + std network rate and 1 TEXT not charged) etc.

    The total cost of every two TEXTS (3 entries) is therefore £2.

    This special offer must be claimed on the same day of original first text, so both your first and second texts must be made on the same day for you to make 3 entries in one day, and will not carry over to another competition.
    It is a scientific fact that your body will not absorb calories if you take it from another person's plate.

    Chocolate is the answer and I don't give a damn what
    the question is.;)

  • Really sorry to clutter the thread but I was so intrigued by oddies' £1500 Swarovski shower that I thought I'd get a photo of it because I really didn't know what to expect.

    I was a little disappointed to be honest :o
