  • For those who think surveys are too long and skip them, this one is a nice easy one, very short :)
  • Mayhem! is widely available to pick up FREE at the beginning of each month from the restaurants, pubs, shops, salons, boutiques, libraries and entertainment venues across Portsmouth and surrounding towns.
    We feature branded magazine stands in prime locations including Cascades Shopping Centre, Waterstones in Commercial Road, Blackwells bookshop, Asda in Fratton, Portsmouth Guildhall and Fratton train station!
    It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt :)

    Eh?????????????
    So that must also mean if we havent watched all the itv comps or read all the magazine and puzzle comps then we are acting fraudulently.............
    So technically that means that websites that post competitions are also acting fraudulently by posting them knowing that not everyone watches/reads or has access to some of the surveys - (when based in a certain city etc.. but says 'comp open to uk & ireland')etc whatever the post is for.

    Correct me if im wrong but its EXACTLY the same thing surely...
    And as far as i see it if i enter a comp or survey such as this one, then even though i may/may not have read/watched the particular items in question, then by the end of it i will have found a few things out about a company that i didnt before - hence NEW CUSTOMERS!
    (like with this one for those who may never seen a copy or just not picked one up before then when you see one you now may pick it up)
    ADVERTISING THROUGH COMPS TO ''GAIN'' CUSTOMERS??
    Its the way of getting new customers isnt it?
    Still comping, after 2 heart attacks 4th feb & 6th feb, and a stent put in.. 45 years old only:eek:

    Totally agree vanpopple, and in the past Mayhem have posted replies thanking me for posting their competitions on here (later removed by MSE because they also posted links to their homepage :p)
