@Mouse400 Thank you for posting, the competition that you closed for being a purchase competition looks okay 😊 
So feel free to edit your post, as long as it is under £2.10 purchase price and you state it is a purchase only competition, then it is okay to post on the forum, if it follows all of the other forum rules. Unless things have changed or I have read the competition entry details incorrectly.

I know I could have private messaged, but I didn't want other people thinking purchase competitions weren't allowed (Unless it has changed since I was informed) I hope you don't mind!

You can get the BEAR Fruit Yoyos Strawberry Multipack x5 20g in Asda at the moment for £1.80

Purchase competition:
Many paid-to-enter competitions now cost more to enter. We've asked Competitions Board users the limit they feel is appropriate in this poll and have increased the maximum cost to £2.10. Please remember we don't encourage forum users to spend money on competitions but if you still feel you absolutely must enter these competitions then that's fine.
Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.

    Thanks so much @Ms_Dee! This is really useful. I don't see purchase comps posted here very often, so I'm sure sharing your advice here will be useful for others too. Will edit the post now. x

    Ah brilliant! :grin:

    I haven't entered but Comp-limented the post.
    Thanks for all you do on the forum, I think I've won from your posts before (I certainly did last month)
    I'm glad you reinstated it and updated, I hope that some people get some wins from it, even yourself if you enter it :heart: x
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.
