Would you enter this competition (moral)

Yeah I would enter too. As long as your not lying to enter there is no problem. I enter all comps that either I or someone I know would be able to use/enjoy. I would also probably enter for pregnancy related wins too as now my little boy is growing up I'm starting to want another (don't tel OH lol he'd have a fit) so would like to think I could get a use out of it

I never have time to enter every competition I see, so I only do the ones for prizes I would use myself or for a close family member.
A couple of years ago i won a spa break, but between entering and finding out I'd won, we'd had new foster children placed with us. When the company rang to tell me I'd won I thanked them but said I couldn't accept the prize as I wouldn't be able to leave these children. They only went and changed the prize for bikes and helmets for the little ones which I thought was amazing of them! I now don't enter any competitions for holidays or tickets though, unless I know we can definitely go as I doubt we'd come across a competition organiser as nice again
(Morrisons, btw :A)
Oh Alikay, I love this post for two reasons. One, you are just such an amazing person to do what you do so selflessly for those children, and two Morrisons were so lovely to kindly substitute the prize. The world is a better place for people like you x:hello:Hello and thanks to all you gorgeous MSErs posting comps, answers and advice xx0 -
I've not entered any from Gay Times or Gransnet, as I am neither gay nor a gran and would feel a bit of a fraud.
However I am starting to get desperate for a win so I may consider entering their comps soon.
I have a six month old baby and a five year old, so enter all baby and toy related comps I can lay my hands on, but I don't resent those without children winning them. I'm thinking about entering one for a dog bowl...I don't have a dog!
Comping since March 2013
Wins: A Canvas Holiday worth £2000!

I'm not a mum to be but have 2 friends who have just had babies (One had twins :eek:) so I enter for baby stuff and I'm not a gran but enter those too.A strong man stands up for himself, a stronger man stands up for others.0

Hey! They came in very handy! (No pun intended there - the post-its were shaped like a "facebook like" - thumbs up)
There are a few comps I've entered and thought "Why?" afterwards - so easy to get carried away
Thanks to all posters :A0 -
