There is one prize of £1000 Argos Vouchers which will be drawn in July, but you can enter once every month so could potentially have multiple entries into the draw!!

On the front cover of the latest Argos catalogue is a picture that you can 'read' with a smartphone/itouch/ipad etc using an app called Blippar (free to download from the App store or Google store).

It opens up an easy and simple 'match the cards' game which, upon completion, opens an entry form into the Argos monthly prize draw.

The entry form leads to here: https://competitions.argos.co.uk/blippar_201401/

**it looks like you could therefore bypass the blippar download/play game bit and just fill in the form online, but please note I am unsure if the entry will be valid this way or not - I just don't know, so it's up to you to either enter direct or follow the Blippar process **

You can 'blip' from the image in post #2 below (thanks to tweakyuk for the original idea :T)

Upon completion of my submission, I got this:
Thank you for entering. The closing date for this draw is 24/04/2014 23:59. Don't forget to enter again next month for another chance to win £1,000 Argos vouchers!

**PLEASE NOTE: I will post these month by month until the end date in July so you can track your submissions via the 'green ticks' facility**

TERMS One entry per person, per month

GL all :D

    Open the app and point it at the above image like you are taking a picture of it - it will take over and tell you what to do from there :)

    Use it like a camera, focus on the photo, and it will scan it, you can then enter the competition
