I won an empty envelope

Hi all

I received a padded envelope yesterday through the post got excited to look inside and find it empty. There wasn't any correspondance at all .I got all excited to find nothing:confused: .
I checked out the return address to find it could be Wessex online southampton union paper or dairylee. I can't seem to contact either of them.
Anyone got any ideas? Ill probably spend all day trying to track a sample of washing powder or something LOL my luck.

    I've had enough now. I have spent all morning so far trying to work out who this padded envelope is from. I've rang Kraft and got an unhelpful assistant telling me if there isn't a Kraft Logo on it it's not from then I've also found out that the Guardian has competitions linked to this postal address with no sucess there.

    If anyone receives an envelope with this return address on it

    PO Box 415 St ALbans Herts AL4 0YW.

    Please Please help me and tell me who it is from. It will probably be a Key ring I've won or something like that , but I am driving my DH mad with looking for it.

    Thanks

    That address handles a lot of comps for a lot of companies, sorry.

    I had a go at some paper entries for a recent huge Cadbury's comp and received a notification to use an entry code at the web site. This was clearly a generic code that might have been used a zillion times and got me nothing at all - already used. I tried guessing some more but got nowhere. Odd. You might point me to the right thread if this has been discussed before... it seemed to me that I was a prize-winner but couldn't get at the (probably very small) prize at all.

    Try sniffing it for a clue - must've been terribly disappointing for you.
