    It's my Dads 50th in March so if I could win him some seriously aged whiskey between now and then that would be great ;)

    Also aiming for a getaway for my boyfriend and I - a weekend will do but no luck this year!

    Good luck all :)

    anything useful

    a holiday, anywhere, for me would be ideal
  • My aims for 2015 are: Anything technical (ipad preferably as i really want one and santa must have lost my letter again ;) ) Ive already won a beautiful photo frame for my dads 71st bday in Jan. I'd also like a money win. TBH i'm having fun doing these comps and anything i win is a benefit to me and my family :)

    Happy winning for 2015
    New start.... positive vibes

    I'm not going to jinx myself by saying I'm aiming for x amount of prizes or £x value of prizes next year, tried that last year and had a rubbish year! So my aim is just to win "something" decent!!

    Sunday Times does travel prizes.


    You can get the Sunday Times (£2.50) for free if you spend £10 in Waitrose.
    I find that I only have to spend £7.50, as the cash till seems to count the £2.50 from the Sunday Times.


    You need to swipe the myWaitrose card, so I usually grab the free coffee at the same time.


    I did win the Lunch at Simpson's in the Strand for a Chess Puzzle many years ago. Must have sent in 100s of entries over the years though. Who says there's no such thing as a free lunch?
