Doing the Meerkat when a delivery van turns up?

Snizza

Yep I've been guilty of that too. Usually when I am expecting a prize to arrive but I did have an occasion where I had a big workbench and power tools turn up here from SkySports without them contacting me to say I had won. So you just never know when them vans pull up lol

I did that too!

But since I have stopped comping I don't bother anymore as they are never for me

I can't wait until we move, our new house has very large windows which means that you can see the road easily in both directions from the living room.

Ah ha ha ha ha ha. This is soooo me.

I used to hate the sound of the postman as it meant bills and general bad news. Now I go bounding up to the door if I'm in and I've got permanent neckache when I'm home from nosing at any vans which slow down near my house!!!

So glad I'm not alone.

Both my partner and i work long hours so miss all the potential meerkatness during the week but on Saturday i am primed and ready to leap. Plus whilst at work i have my hotmail account open all day and randomly check to see what emails are coming in.....:rotfl::rotfl:

Alas nowt to a WEM i can take advantage of or a parcel..

Perhaps they are all delivered to the neighbours who keep them !!!!!:eek::eek: LOL

We live in a flat so cant see the postman coming but when the post drops in the letterbox there is a huge rush to who will pick it up! A few years ago (pre-comping) no one wanted to go!

Guilty as charged. Hubby is just as bad, if he is in, although he doesn't do competitions.

My local delivery guys and postie all think I fancy them as they always catch me peeping at them from behind my curtains and if they come to my door I always open it with a huge smile!

OK, you all know by now that I have lost a marble or two, but seeing as how this thread is asking for us to confess our deepest darkest comping addiction secret, I will fess up that I resort to singing the Wells Fargo Wagon song. The words vary, but it usually goes something like this:

O-ho the Royal Mail Wagon is a-comin' down the street,
Oh please let it be for me!
O-ho the Royal Mail Wagon is a-comin' down the street,
I wish, I wish I knew what it could be!

I won a bar of bubbly chocolate for my birthday.
In March I won a Karaoke machine
And once I won an M&S Hamper
And a box of yummy scrummy jelly beans

O-ho the Royal Mail Wagon is a-comin' now
Is it a big win or just something from eBay?

It could be vouchers
Or make up
Or Glamour toiletries
Or it could be
(finger’s crossed, it really could be)
Somethin' special
(Somethin' very, very special now)
Just for me!

Yes, I know I need help! I'm trying to win some
