I can cope with the 'problem' of what to do with the £5000 when I win (😉), but what on Earth am I going to do with a life size chocolate sculpture of my head - full of peanut butter! That's a doozy!

    I actually won a year's supply of cat litter!  You would be amazed at the number of people who, on hearing this, asked if I had a cat.  Struggled to get my head round why I would enter a competition to win cat litter if I didn't have a cat.....
    Unfortunately, it wasn't up to fussy madam's standards, but our local Blue Cross were thrilled. 
  • When l was about 15 a long time ago, l entered  a competition  for a box of pork scratching. Didn't win the "top" prize but did get 4 jumbo packs of bacon.

    I hold the record for posting a comp with the most bizarre prize.
    It's 13 years ago, and I don't think anything has come close.

    I remember posting this one….. Mmmm- pickle juice! 😂
    Haha! I've not tried one yet but my boyfriend assures me they are delicious. 

    I still can't belive the price tag for what they are though.
