  • I'm like that every weekday morning. The excitement of what the day might bring ... by 5pm I'm usually feeling deflated :rotfl:
  • I used to... but it never happens anymore lol

    Guilty! And my next door neighbours have three young people who get a lot of packages, most of them are delivered to us as they're all out most of the day, I get really excited when a courier or white van man knocks on the door, then have to sign for next door!

    Never gave it a thought, I usually enter and forget about it (I don't think of the ones I enter there are more that close at the end of the month than say there are on a normal Monday or Friday)

    I usually get sad on Sunday mornings when there's no post and no chance of a winner's email with the exception of a Goodreads book one!

    I always get a tad excited about the post coming on Thursdays, because I've found magazine wins come on that day (like a letter saying there's a cheque on the way because I have won!).
    I just enter and forget...hoping to win something! :)

    I don't really think about it - until I go to open my emails, I get a little excited feeling, usually followed by a deflated feeling or a little excitement to see a 'winner' email - to open it up to find out, that the winner is in fact [insert name here] and not in fact me! :rotfl:

    We had a delivery driver turn up this week, there was me thinking 'What have I ordered? What has he ordered?' turns out he had reversed into our car - two days later he was on our door step again :eek: But he was bringing me a prize I had been waiting for! :j with lots more apologises! (We are okay, car is being fixed, it was an accident, as long as he is okay!)

    So now I will stay away from the window for any delivery drivers! :rotfl: I'll keep cautiously scouring through the spam of my emails for those sneaky little winning emails. :p
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.
