    Nothing for me really yet-I popped round to see me parents earlier and my dad even asked me a similar question about my comp wins for Christmas.

    Then to top it off my mum says "oh have you got anything for a 1 year old girl? Its my friends granddaughter's birthday and I cant be bothered to go out"! Do I have a shop in my house?!!

    I don't mind though :)

    Nothing really - my problem is I love treating my family so if I win something they get it straight away as I can't wait and put it away :(

    I'm exactly the same, said I wouldn't do it this year .... but I did. Now I regret it. Next year ...... :rotfl:

    I have been trying really hard to win things for Christmas but so far, nothing :(

    I did win a Rimmel goodie bag which came yesterday, I could have given that to someone as we have plenty of make-up wearing females in my family....but I want them all to myself lol. I could give bits out of it away. There is a silver eye shadow which I don't think I'd use as I already have something similar and a black nail varnish which I already have and hardly used. So I guess those little bits could go towards something?

    I have been entering loads of dvd comps ect which I don't usually do and still haven't won one lol.

    I hope to win a few nice bits for my daughter, its her first Christmas so I am going to spoil her rotton anyway :p but I'd like a few wins too!
