    well done to you all,

    unfortunately i just had my e mail saying i was not one of the lucky ones - allways next time.
    Thoughts:

    The surest sign that there is intelligent life in the universe is that they haven't contacted us yet:D

    there are a couple of threads on the freebies forum about this, it wasnt actually a competition to win one, everyone was entering a competition for a holiday and if you also supllied 5 email address you would be sent out a free pitcher but there has been a c**k up and they didnt shut down applications so could not fulfil all that were promised. It appears now that they are randomly choosing people from those that applied even though everyone got a conformation message stating " thanks your pitcher is on its way"

    Bit naughty really
  • well done :j

    my email said to look out for a future email offering something else due to high demand

    I've won one too :T
  • Message to all thread users.

    I'm writing from RPM, the UK marketing agency for Grand Marnier in response to the free pitcher promotion.

    We understand that many of you have been unhappy that due to the excess demand for pitchers, you were unsuccessful in receiving one. The application form did state that pitchers were available while stocks last and these have now been exhausted.

    The offer was made in good faith and as per the message those of you who have contacted us since have received, we will be developing an offer exclusively for those of you who were unsuccessful. We will send details of this offer out by 30th September to those who have opted into future communications from Grand Marnier (in line with data protection requirements).

    We are sorry for any disappointment, and trust that you will understand that all efforts are being made to satisfy your interest in Grand Marnier as quickly and as fully as possible.

    Yours sincerely,
    Jemma Daltrey
    RPM

    Congratulations :j

    :hello: Good Luck everyone !:hello:
  • Please DO NOT THANK a rep from this wretched company who have reneged on their promises and contract to deliver pitchers to so many other MSE'ers. Please see the thread on the Freebies section where "Jemma" (if she is real) has also posted.
