Is this a win?

Just received a copy of Battlefield 4 for Xbox this morning. Although wife has bought lots of games for the kids over the past few weeks says this is still on the list to buy. So is this a win?
And no there is no way I can keep track of everything she buys, I gave up with that years ago as too much work!
There is no congratulations slip, or any I.D of whom it is from apart from a PO box return address, which is P.O.Box 4207, Bracknell, RG429NW.
This has happened a few times where I have received a win with no mention of where I won it from such a box of bars of choc and an umbrella and have been able to find it by searching the comp forum. But with Battlefield 4 mentioned so often and all the advents I can't guess which one it is.
Why do these competition runners not enclose some sort of note with info?

Well if you haven't paid for it and you've entered a comp for it, then it's a win
Congrats!0 -
comp wins do seem to turn up sometimes without a wem or an identification slip/letter part the fun well donepma positive mental attitude counts for everything:D

If it was an actual order then it should have an invoice inside.
A lot of our postal wins don't have any sort of documentation, which is perverse in terms of marketing.0 -
Assume it's a win unless your wife tells you otherwise...:)0

Guess I will just a chalk it up in my list of wins then. Makes it even better as a win when it is something we were just about to buy. Might stop her complaining about how long I spend on the laptop (well for a few days anyway).0
