  • I give up.. Spent two days looking for the Kindle, I'd be really surprised if someone wins this. Also, One of the clue says its a blue link. DO NOT click on blue advertisement links (Since the Kindle has to be on one of their OWN sites). Plus with the amount of traffic this site is getting now; if people click the ads while searching, then the money generated for the site through google ads would be many times the worth of the prize.

  • I have been searching on and off since Monday morning and I think I have finally found the Kindle Touch. I am still waiting for confirmation, but I am quietly confident :)
  • Put us out of our misery if you do win, I was certain I'd found it last night but they said no. I mean, it looked like one and everything :/

  • Yes, I'll let you know if I got it right. Though its been well over an hour since I emailed and still have no reply. I guess they have a lot of responses to check.

    Hi guys, sorry not been on here been replying to emails! :)

    I can confirm it's there it was put on the website at around 10pm Sunday night before the competition began. We test on Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer etc (and mobile devices). We even email screen grab and link to IPM before and they check it during.

    It's right there - staring you in the face! To be honest, this is our toughest yet. We had suggestions from some of you to make it so EVERYONE who finds it goes into a random draw to win it - instead of the first. Because of the advantage people have who can search from home all day etc. We are seriously looking at that option.

    Until then, those of you who have been looking hard take a break :) thank you very much for those taking part and thank you for your kind emails and useful comments. New clue at 5pm guys.

    Sorry - we have hundreds of emails to go through. We don't officially check emails until the end but we try reply to some who are stuck or need help.

    You'll know when you find it. We'll check for winners Friday :D

    It definitely is there - I'm pretty certain I found it, though I doubt I am the first.
    I found that clue 2 was most helpful!

    p.s. I'm one of those lurkers who hits the thanks button a lot but hasn't had anything to post until now. Hope you all don't mind & thanks for all the effort you guys put in here! =)
    Thanks to all who post comps! :A
  • I have looked everywhere so i will be interested when they reveal where it is but i can't be bothered to look anymore now i know that they don't announce when it is found.
    If I cared what everyone else thought, I'd be just like everyone else, and there's already too many of them. :A

    Do you email back to say 'yes, that's it' or something then?

    My first guess had a 'nope' reply within 5 minutes. The second guess was sent about an hour and a half ago but heard nothing hmmm
    A MASSIVE thank you to everyone who posts comps :beer:
