Am I just being an old cynic, or does it looks like a bunch of techie people have found a way to find the codes quickly? Seems a bit odd that loads of posters in that thread have joined Feb 2016 and these are their first posts.

Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!

I AGREE ! The prizes should go to people with more than 10 posts.
This would stop people just registering for this comp and ensure the prizes went to people who actually use the site for other things.0 -
I was thinking exactly the same thing. I found one within about 5 minutes and was amazed to see how many had already posted it as well as several others. Seems it was the first post for many of them too.
When there was a similar comp last year it took a couple of hours for all the codes to be found and they had to give clues for the last couple, something does not seem right this time.0 -
pointless!! It looked like most of the codes were found by 12.01 so I didn't bother - and by newbies!Debbie0

Glad it's not just me - I refreshed the thread at a couple of mins after 12 and there was several pages already.TOP MONEYSAVING TIP

Or maybe it should have been open to those that had registered on the site on or before 22nd which is when the birthday of the site was!
Really think this should have been for those that use the site and have helped it grow to be 13 years old!Debbie0
