Some comps to post on forum - if anyone wants to do them

Options
I know these used to be posted on the forum last year - not sure why they stopped (I presume they are still open to UK residents)

Don't have time to post them - so if anyone want to check and post them, feel free (there are currently 22 posted on the website)

    hi, I took over posting them from bossladysal after
    they asked for a new poster a while back & also www.femail.com.au,
    I posted them for a long time & tbh
    i stopped posting them as they took a lot of time up keeping up
    with each time they put a new one on/checking the website
    daily as they put new ones on random,
    & then linking to dailys each time,
    would be good to have a new poster post these that
    have a bit of spare time to do them.
    I noticed Find all threads started by bella165
    had started posted them last year
    but no-one linked them to daily thread
    ie: a few here..

    if a new poster helps by posting them they need also
    linking to the
    Daily competition thread
    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=65664533&postcount=4
    or someone would need to post/link to it.

    I don't know how they deal with it but prizes worth about $28 Aus dollars upwards potentially attract VAT and if royal mail deliver they add an £8 charge on top so just a DVD could cost £11 upwards.

    & just to add if that's ok,
    we very rarely had a UK winner when all the comps were
    posted that we know of.

    Thanks, I was just working out the potential costs on a couple of the dvd/bluray prizes and if the winner does have to pay it would cost them more than just buying from Amazon (other retailers are available).
