To win a BBQ. Not even a fancy BBQ, just a BBQ.

I am grateful of the chance to win this healthy bbq, if I am lucky enough to win, I will give it to my son, dil, and three children, as their house burnt down the last day of school term, and they lost everything, so they've had to start all over again, and they are great lovers of bbq's and healthy eating

I seen this one but didn't read it properly on facebook :eek: The irony...

This drives me mad, cannot stand it!! It makes no difference - the FB comp I won was full of sob stories, I just posted a comment like "Cute chair!"

There was one comp the other day, asking you to say who you would give it to if you won (it was a hamper of some sort). I put "I would give it to me!" Just being honest.

I doubt an outdoor bbq would be on the top of their list at this time of year - that is, of course, if they are not homeless and living in a tent whilst they rebuild their char-grilled home brick by brick using their very own hands.......come on everybody....together -lets all say 'Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhh'

If my house had burnt down and someone turned up with a chuffing BBQ I'd slam the tent door shut on them!

Saw this post today:

I would love to win for my little disabled adopted brother in law aged 7 who is back in hospital today for another operation. He would love this prize



Em - correct me if I am wrong but isn't your brother in law a man who is married to your sister or brother (if your brother is gay)??? This brother in law is aged 7?

A brother-in-law can also be the brother of your husband or wife, so it is possible.

Just seen a page called 'Just-Trending' that's giving a huge playhouse away on Facebook.


Some of the replies to the sob stories are quite comical.


Btw, what good is a BBQ to some poor soul who's house has burnt down? If someone is having to start again, then surely items like a bed is more important than a BBQ. Just saying

What I am saying is - if I was in that situation, ie living in a tent with a family and no cooking facilities then a bbq would help us to cook a decent meal. Yes a bed would be great too but a bbq would be helpful!

I know what you are saying Bella hehe
TBH, I think I'd rather have one of those little stoves our kid has for when he goes night fishing and a little frying pan. He can cook up a pretty mean fry up with one of those.
I didn't know BBQ's were healthy. Although, tbh I HATE that charcoal taste after a burger has been on one. But that's just me.
Be Lucky.
