    Watch you don't dupe yourself, check your thanks in post #16 here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4573067 which has been posted part of a weekly running competition ;)

    I think it may be wise to ask for a merge cp to save people disqualifying themselves, it is the same comp after all.

    I'll do the honours

    Edit: Request sent to Dalkirst, thanks Dalkirst :)

    The other competitions have been posted separately so I did the same for this one.

    The thinking being some people would enter for an e-reader but not for the holiday and would miss it as part of the on going thread.

    edit : Why was it ok for the other separate weekly comps to be posted separately but not this one?

    probably going to give up posting competitions and go back to just entering them as it makes no sense to me at all.
    Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.

    Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.

    Generally weekly comps are completely different entities but this one has weekly comps that add up to one big prize of a trip to New York, hence them all being added to the thread.

    No offence was intended but if it was taken that way then I apologise. Please carry on posting, without posters this forum is nothing and everyone appreciates each and every comp that's posted :beer:

    I'm sorry moneybot but I was just warning so people didn't dupe themselves, I hadn't seen the other dupe posts you mention (or perhaps I skipped them like I do ;)).

    The original was posted as a weekly so should be updated there, perhaps you could have still posted as you did but put a link in the weekly thread?

    It's not easy sometimes to know what's going on and where but please don't take offence, we're all just trying to help each other out here :beer:

    No VG, You don't have to enter the Grazia competition, but there is a link on the page that will take you to the New York entry... if that makes sense?!

    and this holds true for all the rest I hope because by now I've lost track of what I' m entering to be honest BUT having said that I 'm grateful to ALL OF YOU.
    Thanks to those who help us to win !
