    Small - Vouchers for freebies (like a free drink), Make up, dvd, Book... everyday things under £10 I would say.

    Medium - Vouchers, Clothes, Hampers - things that you could buy but are a nice treat.

    Big /Ipad/computer/holiday. (although home-ware would also come into this like a Bed/sofa) - something you couldn't afford and money can't buy type prizes too. I'd class prizes which mean a lot to people, even if they are small under this category too. :)

    :D

    pretty much these three things
  • Small are those everyday things that are affordable to most people like small pieces of food, cinema tickets, itunes song credits, wipes (thats my examples that Ive won)

    Medium are things that are nice, but you wouldnt spend money yourself on buying such as expensive skin treats, hampers, years supply of hair dye

    Large are those that you really really really want or need, but can no way afford it such as ipad, smartphone, merlin pass, TV, washing machine

    Stupidly big to me is like a lottery win and something I just dont dare dream of like large ITV win, VIP holiday, car. Yes I no longer dream of those 6 balls on coming out on a sat night I dream of answering the phone to someone telling me they're calling from ITV
    Current Aims: Laptop/PC, decent money, holiday
    Best Wins: Ipad, Nintendo 3DS, £400 Shopping Spree at LK Bennett, £100 Boots vouchers
    Total Wins (Since April 2012) £3442.56
    Big thanks to all who post comps :T:beer:
  • Same as most have said:

    small - one item like a dvd, choc bar, toiletries item etc

    medium - set of something, hamper, vouchers up to £100 etc

    large - a large win to me is anything over £100

    May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx

    I think I set it just a tad lower than most, because that way I get to celebrate more.

    Small
    Freebie/samples. I have soooo many little sample bottles of posh perfume now, combined they're defo a medium prize. Plus small voucher prizes, up to around £2.00. Anything edible that is too small a prize to share with anyone.

    Medium
    For me this is something that is a proper win, even if it's not a lot in monetary terms. So a book, DVD, anything from £5 - £20 ish

    Big
    Anything over £20 probably feels like a big win - defo anything over £30 would. A hamper win absolutely feels like a massive win to me. So far wins in this category include: my one hamper win, guitar, Kindle Touch and bottle of Remy Martin

    Huge
    Like many, I'm still waiting for that ITV win, car, iPad, and so on.
    I am brave, I am bruised
    I am who I'm meant to be
    I'm not scared to be seen
    I make no apology
    THIS IS ME!
