2 Red Cards on the Doormat...

... typical given that today was the only day this week that I needed to be somewhere!

Anyway, a little curious as to what they may be, because the majority of the prizes I'm expecting are small enough to fit through the letter box.

Also one of the cards says there are 2 parcels, and has a Royal Mail Signed For sticker too. Just to ease my mind though, what delivery method to Goodreads use? Because I've been waiting on a book since June.

Still to receive are- 1x Goodreads, Terry Pratchett Novel, 3 History Books (although only gave them my address yesterday, so unlikely), a tablecloth, a chocolate bar, and a poster.

Fingers crossed for a nice suprise! :D

    Most of my Goodreads wins have come through Royal Mail.

    Here's hoping for a nice win :)

    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png




  • The books I've had from GoodReads have all been sent via Royal Mail, but they all come from individual authors or publishers (had a couple from the US sent via Amazon) so could come via another courier.

    Having said that, congrats on the wins and enjoy the surprises!

    Lets hope they're too fab prizes :)
    Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling? :o
  • No such luck!

    All that fuss for a poster and a chocolate bar :mad: Which if they had been packaged in a more eco-friendly manner, would have fit through the letterbox with ease...

    Oh well, a win is a win :o

    Well done!

    It is annoying though when items get sent in packaging that's way over-sized and you end up going to collect it. :mad:
