I've had a few wins over the last few months.
I won:
A DVD of the film 'Across The Bridge' starring Rod Steiger which frankly, looks awful. I don't even know how I won this because it came in an unmarked evelope with no letter??!!
A Manchester United Wilkinson Sword Goody Bag with razor, shower gel, shave foam, washbag (all with Man Utd logo, however - I'm a Preston fan so didn't enjoy that much
)
I also won a copy of Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. Now normally I would be happy with this, but I already bought it by the time I won it. Again, not even sure who I won it with??!!

Yeah, I gave the LOTR DVD to a friend. I ended up using the wilkinson sword stuff, just not the washbag.

You could try eBay and sell it or if you can't be bothered with that gift it to someone via your local Freecycle group (see http://www.freecycle.org) and spread the happiness!0

I would be happy with those wins. I beat you on useless wins i won a wash bag with a flannel, nail clippers, soap and nail brush they had a worm on them. it was to advertise washing your hands properly - still my son was happy with it

Well done on the wins! Annoys me a little though as you're saying they are usless when others would have been happy to win them... kinda why I don't enter comps I don't want to win.
Hope you win something you want soon.
