    thank you everyone - im still waiting for the hamper but i had email saying it was due to be delivered in the first week of december. I have since had a good win (hopefully as im starting to think i was dreaming), i got a call from itv friday saying id won a cash prize of £5,000,00 - it came from a 020 number and they said the cheque would be in the post within 21 days...... im so excited but scared that its a con - the money would come in really useful at this time of year for me, my son (cars on last legs) and to pay for my daughters uni fees..... fingers crossed.....

    What makes you think it's a con? Did they tell you which competition it was you'd entered (I think normally they say for example, the Real Deal Competition for such and such a date) so if you entered it then there's no reason to think you haven't really won! Congratulations!! :j:j
