Thanks jambo for posting this

https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4367955

Just got an email informing me I am a runner up and have won £75 voucher, upgraded to £100 to spend on the website.

As noted by Madrabbitgirl on the OP, very expensive bags, cheapest I think £160 :eek:
Will be interested to know how many of us get these runner up emails :mad:

Editing to add, according to the OP there would be 10 runners up....we shall see!

    I got one as well. Technically if it's real and not sent to everyone, it would be my first ever win? Though I'm not counting it, as the cheapest thing is £160 like you say.

    I emailed them to check if it was legit as there were spelling mistakes, and no personal details, which they had since we had to give them on the entry form. Can't say I'll use it if it is legit, don't have that kind of money, that's why I'm entering things :p
  • I got one too, was just looking on the site :eek: Note was looking at the Duchess at £160 & it went into basket at £265! I don't have £60 spare but as it's my birthday next month I might have been able to convince my Dad to get me it as an early present lol That was the only one I 'kinda' liked, but not at that price!!!
    2025 - finally back comping after a stressful house move - send me fairy dust please!

    2026 winnings!!!

    January - £10 The Spin Off

    Aw Pechow that's a shame, getting that and thinking you had a decent first win :(. Hope you get a win soon :)

    I've also had one - at first I thought it was a spammy mail as it said I had won a "price". I do like some of their bags and will consider using my voucher if it's legit. If, however, every one that entered got one, I consider that slightly odd marketing tactics and will avoid them.
    Would LOVE to win:
    A hamper - any sort! A goody bag - any sort! A UK mini-break. A year's supply of something foodie. Anything Sci-Fi related
    2013 wins - Cutting Room book, Rock n Rose necklace, £50 M&S voucher, Greggs coffee, £70 voucher for a Onesie
  • Haha, me too. I was dead suspicious so came here first, and am unsurprised ;)

    Yeah, it's been so long, I even took a break for about two months. Started again for the new year and still nothing :( but thank you :)

    It's not even transferable so I can't give it to someone who would like it either!
