    My cousin posted this to win an Xbox One X.

    "I would love this as Ive just lost my disability benefits and gaming really helps my memory and handeye coordination hope you find it in your heart to pick me"

    I had to resist the urge to walk around to his house and slap him :rotfl: especially as it clearly stated "Winner will be selected at random". Mainly because 1. he's not disabled and 2. he has an xbox one anyway!!

    :mad: Please call him out on the comp thread, or report his post via pm to the competition holders & try to get him disqualified.

    Lying about a disability & losing benefits (esp to try and rig a competition to win something they don't need) is sick.

    Spotted some confused tweeters thinking c&ping the original tweet in a reply counts as retweeting.

    + over on fb someones got a bit confused.

    "#DaniloDisneyComp Wow - what a brilliant prize <smileyw/hearteyes> There is something for everyone in the family in this bundle - simply perfect! Im happily liking & sharing with my friends to see and enter too.<heart> We would love a real bed (as we are currently on single camp beds!), so Im keeping my fingers tightly crossed & thanking you for the chance as its very much appreciated. <lucky clover><smiley face>"

    - prize for a bundle of Disney calendars & merch, doesn't include a bed!

    I’d post a photo of him with his Xbox and say ‘Yeah, you are right, you have memory problems. Maybe this pic will help you find it’.

    The 'Married in Michigan' mum will probably say she needs to stock up on loo roll for when her son and his wife come to stay.

    Lordy, lordy me, here's a beauty:

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=5741868

    To be in with a chance of winning this beautiful Crafter's Companion UK Cute Christmas card making hamper, all you need to do is: If you could only receive one gift this Christmas, what would it be? (I suppose they were asking for it....)

    "Our three little foster children to have their first proper Christmas would be a gift to us, seeing their faces on Xmas morning..."

    "...I've survived sepsis 4 times so there is nothing I need but my one gift would be for all the homeless people to have a family to go too on Xmas day to spend laughing an having a jolly nice time..."

    "My dad has just been diagnosed with stage 4 throat cancer, and his treatment will be very painful..."

    "...we have all had a horrible year with two cancers two suspected cancers and a heart problem..."

    "I'd love for my aunt to fight her tumour long enough to see the birth of her grandchild due in December..."

    And that's just in the first dozen posts that I can see. Don't have the stomach to carry on reading.
    Mine beats the lot, BTW...
