Surprise win.

I only tend to enter competitions in the winter and usually close to the end date. So at this time of the year I don't usually spend time checking my competition email account too closely. I was amazed to find an email congratulating me on winning 6 bottles of Blue Nun and some Angela Malik spices. I had obviously already missed a couple of previous emails so am rather pleased they persevered in trying to contact me. The email seems to have come from some 'brand' promotion' agency with no clue to the original competition. I've tried to find the competition and the only link is in the magazine dailies and the click to win. A bit odd as I only entered a few, sometime last year, but quickly got fed up of them and gave them up. So thank you to the unknown person who took the time to list it.
