Confusion over Wellie Wanging!

in I won! I won! I won!
I just had a go on the Ribena Welly Wang competition which I have been entering now and then, not really thinking I'd have a chance to win. Anyway, my welly landed on the grass and I got so excited thinking that meant I had won a pair (I actually jumped out of my chair!)...but instead of saying I've won it says 'CONGRATULATIONS you have been entered into a prize draw to win a pair of designer wellies' and that I can enter 3 more times before March 1st 2013 and then I'll find out if I have won! :(

Huge disappointment. I really thought I'd won! They must have changed the rules for September.

    It says on the front page that you're entering a prize draw, so I don't see how you got confused

    Terms....Wanging wellies is great fun! Just follow these 3 easy steps.

    Look for your special wanging code on all 500ml promotional bottles of yummy Ribena
    Choose your trusty welly at our Welly Picker
    Enter your code and details to be entered into our free prize draw
    Then watch the berries wang away! There are 10 pairs of designer wellies up for grabs. You can enter up to three times before midnight on 1st March 2013 and we’ll let you know after that if you’re a winner. Good luck!

    Must have changed then... :/ x

    I notice that a few other people have had the same experience so it's not just me getting confused!
