    i am in the 'would struggle to keep it for xmas' group of people...

    i am so bad at hiding things.

    I share this issue!! :rotfl: I get a bit too excited and want to tell the person who I have it in mind for what I have won! I managed to keep one present a secret once and then someone else told the OH what I had got. Gutted!

    Toys for the kids and maybe neices/nephews (though I think their parents probably wouldn't be happy with me giving a gift I won for Christmas, even if it's worth hundreds of pounds when I normally spend a tenner).

    If you did win, you wouldn't have to tell them it was a prize ;)

    You never know, their opinions may change... It's about the thought that you're trying to win it for them! :T
  • Anything at all! Only succeeded so far in winning one out of the 14 things I put on my 2014 wish list so clearly can't afford to be picky!
    2018 wins: Aspinal of London jewellery box, Boudavida gym outfit, HP Pavilion laptop, The List party tickets, All Points East festival tickets, Kiehls moisturiser, By Terry cc serum, Nars Liquid Bronzer, Benefit highlighter, Nars illuminator, Fresh advanced lip trio set, Cetaphil sample set, signed copy of My Absolute Darling by Gabriel Tallent

    Well if they dislike an awesome present like that, no matter how the means of getting it, then more fool them!:p

    Good luck with your wishlist!!:T
  • My only think on my xmas wishlist is something good for hubby and baby stuff. My sister in law, my sister and my best friend are having babies next year so I would like to get them started with some gifts
    Won a holiday every year since 2014......come on 2021!!
    2020 Winnings Value £3750
  • I'd like to win perfume for my sister. Maybe some little bath sets for friends. Any animal products for my local rescue centre.

    Any gardening or b&q type vouchers would be good for my grandparents.
    I just enter and forget...hoping to win something! :)
