Love this thread, it is making me chuckle.

For me, anything with a selfie, any alchohol or anything being given by an alchohol producer (I hate alchohol). Afternoon teas, in fact anything to do with tea (a part from that clipper tea carosel lol). Baby things! Usually anything that is aimed at disabled/elderly/kids as well. Family holidays, anything to do with a horse or a dog and honeymoons. Also health supplements and gym memberships and detox.

Oh and new kitchen and bathrooms or carpets, don't feel there is a lot of point when we live in a rented house and will probably move in a few years!

Also fishing paraphernalia although I do enter for the odd rod that might be worth over £200 same as cricket bats..

I don't enter for minimoons either, can someone explain to me what a minimoon is?

I am guessing it is half a holiday to see if you like your husband/wife to be before the official one :rotfl:

Personally, I don't feel comfortable entering competitions that are obviously aimed at someone older/not me! Therefore I don't enter:
Baby competitions (unless I happen to have a pregnant close relative at the time)
Over 50's (at least not for a few more years)
Gransnet
I don't enter competitions that winning would include me attending an event that I wouldn't choose to attend (if that makes sense!)
I don't enter competitions for tickets to events that I wouldn't personally attend - music festivals etc.
I don't enter competitions for hobbies that I have no interest in - such as fishing or football. (having said that, I just remembered that I did win a football for my daughter earlier in the year, when she was keen to start playing!!!)
I don't really have many ethics when it comes to the companies running the competitions - other than the fact that I wouldn't enter a competition to win something that included real fur, other than that, I tend to see most other competitions as fair game.

For vain prats with tiny arms and a small social circle that want to get random people in to make them look popular
