Mine was an book about weddings. It was my first win and I was so excited until I realised it was an ebook, from Itunes. So I never managed to read it because don't like apple divices. My fault though, I didn't read the description properly.

I was informed I had won a branston pickle lunch box, there was no picture but I thought it would be like one of those marmite sandwich boxes and although they didn't say, I thought they would have added some branston products in. What arrived was a bright green padded bag that was flattened to fit into a flat envelope. I have no use for it.0

I won a Warburton's prize on Twitter and thought it was a hamper - no, it was a bit of plastic shaped like feet that you were supposed to put a piece of toast on top of! Utterly useless and said "not suitable for children" I can't imagine any adults being amused by it! It went straight in the bin.
Red spotted hanky at Christmas - the surprise prize was a red spotted hanky and a tiny mini balloon. Total tat.
I once won an "Art pack" - it turned up and it was just a piece of cloth that you could roll pencils or paint brushes up in...very disappointed as I thought it meant lots of art goodies...
& there have been other things that were just so good that I forgot them...0 -
