got mine today too

Me too. I'm always grateful for a freebie - especially when it's got chocolate in it! Games look ok. I think they will look much better after a few drinks at Xmas when all the good programmes have finished though!

Thanks to the original OP.

to those of you who got it: did you all get emails saying they're sending it?
i haven't got an email saying either way. just wandering if i did something wrong and didn't register properly (misspelled email address, etc.). it's just that i like it when i get feedback even if it is "you didn't get it this time".

Got my box this morning too. The chocolate bar was very yummy The games were pretty pants but hey, they were free and we get the opportunity to try something new out - the egg-a-thon game looks 10000000% better than the track one in my opinion!! But yeah, should be aimed at kids!

Got mine this morning too,

The games were... er... unusual for lack of a better word.

I found it a bit strange that one required drawing a circuit with chalk... no way any child above 5, (if i remember rightly it's recommended for anyone above 5), could possibly be given chalk and not put it on the walls instead of the pavement outside.

The other game was also too easy to win; my girlfriend won in 3 rolls of the dice... a few 6's and the games over.

Chocolate was lovely though, highlight of the box.

Overall not a bad idea though, especially for free, no complaints here, just my personal opinions :-)

what did everyone else think to the games themselves?

I got an email a few weeks ago to say they were considering me. Didn't hear anything else till last week when they sent an email saying they were sending my box the next week. It arrived today :j

Not tried anything yet, saving it till Friday as i'm on weightwatchers, so will have it as my end-of-week treat

The one with the chalk smells like halfords lol. The egg game I know is really simple, you could also modify the rules abit.
