    Oh tell me about it. I have just announced the winner of mine (canvas). But all the bloggers who have given one away, got one themselves. I'm surprised they're making any money!!!

    I'm not complaining though, mine made a lovely Birthday present for the MIL :O)

    Hee hee I saw that too in my feed (great raffled baffled minds think alike! :T ) My mum said to me yesterday - 'wooo it looks a bit cloudy out there?' And then she looked at me blankly when I replied - 'Yes, with a chance of meatballs!' I think she thought I had lost my marbles! bouncing-smiley-emoticon.gif

    Well at least when Ive been PPr'd someone will be able to carry on posting the RC's as you have the same blogs/sites as me on your feed. I post them on Loquax now too so people will also be able to find them there.

    I have to say the quality of the canvas prints I've seen on the blogs look lovely. My family aren't pretty enough to be on a canvas print :eek:

    They really are pushing the boat out!

    I have always wondered as most blogs have the same prize posted at the same time, is there a website that the bloggers go to, to pick what prizes they want to have on their blogs?

    They are lovely. I really liked mine, but we needed a birthday gift and had no money...so perfect really :p

    Errrm, no and yes. Its hard to explain but like compers, bloggers have their own little community and when a PR or private company contact a blogger and ask them to host a competition, giving them the prize as compensation. That blogger then shares his or hers blogger friends and it goes on and on... Canvas designs have actually joined Facebook blogger groups though asking for people. I've never come across that before.

    There are websites out there where a blogger can make an enquiry. Then we can be cheeky and contact companies direct... Hit and miss whether anyone will be back in touch though.

    But as you know, a competition is a great way to advertise so people usually jump at the chance for (nearly) free advertising :O) x

    Thank You for explaining it all, sounds like a win win situation plus if we are lucky we get to win :)
