    A PS3 3 days before Christmas, the kids went mental :D

    As with others, I'd had no email, letter or call and it was a complete surprise

    An iPad for me, my Daughter's was a letter telling her that she had won flights to New York, a 5 night stay and a cruise back on the Queen Mary 2.

    I've had two lovely surprise wins that I didn't get prior notification of. The first was £250 worth of H&M vouchers, that came from a GQ competition. Then just last week I had a courier delivery of a huge box, mystified as to what could be inside but opened it to find a beach bag, about 15 different bottles and tubes of toiletries, and £200 of Red Letter Day vouchers!!
    I love the unexpected ones - I mean, don't get me wrong, ALL wins are fab - but when something just arrives out of the blue, it makes it all the more exciting! :D
