Free Competitions: Win £100 To Spend At Daisy Street Shoes

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 22 April, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win £100 To Spend At Daisy Street ShoesI love shoes! I will never have enough pairs of shoes and I'm always on the lookout for new shoes to add to my shoe collection - I will definitely be entering this competition to win £100 to spend at Daisy Street Shoes, I've seen a few pairs I like already.

There's no answer to give, you just need to register and log-in (or use your Facebook account) and hand over your details before 11 May.

With the day I've had today, a quick three-day trip to Vienna sounds rather appealing!

If you'd like to get away from it all for a few days then enter this competition to win yourself three nights, on a B&B basis, at The Ring, a luxurious boutique hotel on Vienna’s famous Ringstrasse, opposite the Opera House.

The answers to the questions are:

  • Calum MacLeod 
  • Holoman Island 

You need to submit them, along with your details, before 25 April.

I know that a new set of pots and pans might not do it for everyone, but I rather like new cookware.  I have no clue why as, often, the last place on earth I want to spend a lot of time is in the kitchen - give me a shiny new set of pans though and I'm rather a happy girl; weird!

The answer is 'Fire' and you need to get your entry in before 9 May.

If you fancy a new TV, then you might want to take a peek at this Sony Smart TV- it does all sorts of internet things and streams movies...if that sort of thing does it for you.

The answer is Tom Hanks and the closing date for entries is 2 May.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win Cash, £1000 To Spend On Duvets And Pillows And Other Prizes

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 13 April, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win Cash, £1000 To Spend On Duvets And Pillows And Other PrizesI love prizes, but I love cash even more and there's a cool 5,000 of our Great British Pounds up for grabs at the end of this one.

I go through phases with competitions like this - I mean, someone has to win them...right?  SO it might as well be either you or me.

The answer is 'C' (hair) and closing date for online entries is 19 April.

If you're a regular PPs reader, it might not have escaped your attention that I LOVE all things bedding - imagine my delight, then, when I came across this competition to win £1000 to spend at the Duvet and Pillow Warehouse!

You don't just have to buy duvets and pillows with it though, you can also spend it on mattresses, mattress toppers, towels, bed linen AND the odd pillow and duvet if you really want to.

There's no question to answer, just fill in your details before 19 May.

If I had to choose between entering the duvets and pillow competition or this one - to win a limited edition Kinect Star Wars on Kinect for Xbox 360 - it would be a very tough call.

You see, I love Star Wars almost as much as pillows and duvets and, having seen the advert for this Kinect Star Wars on Kinect for Xbox 360 on TV last night, I think I might enjoy playing it as much as I enjoy mooching around for bedding!

It looks properly awesome and I WANT TO PLAY IT (I've actually entered this one, I entered it before telling you about it - THAT'S how much I want to play it!)

Just answer the question - the answer is Padmé Amidala, in case you didn't know - and sumbit your entry before 20 May. 

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win A Luxury Chocolate Banquet Cooked For You In Your Home

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 6 April, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win A Luxury Chocolate Banquet Cooked For You In Your HomeIt's F1 season again, I know this because my dad is looking extra harassed - he works over in Italy for Ferrari F1 and, well...if you watch F1 you'll know that's 'enough said'.

I don't get excited about it anymore so you're more than welcome to these tickets to the Grand Prix at Silverstone; living just down the road, in relative terms, from the circuit the whole event is just a menace and causes local chaos.  I have friends who live on Monaco and it's the same for them every year too, anyway - enough of that, here's the rest of everything you need to know.

There's no question to answer, just a form to fill in before 12 June - the race is on 8 July, by the way, so you'd better make sure you're available.

If you landed here from another planet and took a look at popular tech', you would be forgiven for wondering why earthlings seem to have a penchant for gadgets named after fruit!

If you're not a fan of Apple iPads then you could always look to the Blackberry Playbook instead - playbook, what a daft name and it makes it sound like it's something for kids rather than grown ups.

If you'd like one then just fill in this form and keep your fingers crossed that you're the lucky winner pulled from the virtual hat on 10 May.

Hedgetrimmers: they're not sexy, they're not particularly fun but they're damn useful if you've got hedges!

Decent ones are rather expensive too and these Bosch hedge trimmer sets (there are two up for grabs) are worth £199 each - I'm going to enter this one, I've got miles of 'lovely' hedging that will be in need of trimming before long.

The answer is 'Taxus baccata' and you need to get your entries in before 17 May.

Okay, as a token nod to the chocolate madness that is gripping the country this weekend (I went to Tesco earlier on and it was insane, people were pushing and shoving each other out of the way to get to the last remaining Easter eggs on the shelves; mad!) here's a chance to win a luxury chocolate banquet, cooked for you in your home by Gu's head chef, for you and five of your friends.

There will be chocolate in every course and whilst I can't say this appeals to me in the slightest, it might to you.

Just fill in the form before 30 April to be in with a chance of winning.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win Loads Of Stuff!

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 3 April, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win Loads Of Stuff!Okay, so maybe 'loads of stuff'  might be a bit of an exaggeration - but you can win some stuff.

How about a rather lovely garden or conservatory furniture set, to tempt the sun back?  There's snow forecast for my little bit of the country tomorrow and after temperatures of 25C last week, that's just plain RUDE!

Simply hand over your details before 30 April for your chance to win.

My son left home last week to take up his post in the British Army and due to a massive conspiring of events I won't be in the country for his first parade.  My mum, who's going in my place, has been given strict instructions to take as many photographs and videos as possible - she could do with the HD Hero cameras that are up for grabs at the end of this competition!

There's one to be won every day between now and the end of the month; simply fill in your details to be in with a chance of winning.

 

Would you like the chance to win the new iPad? There are 10 64GB Wi-Fi iPads waiting to be given to 10 lucky winners! 

All you have to do is vote for your favourite Gocompare.com advert (Really?  Does anyone have a favourite?  I despise ALL of them!) and you'll automatically be entered into the competition!

The closing date for just chosing one voting for your favourite is 20 April.

I love hair products - I'm a total sucker for trying new things and rather fancy this Bumble and Bumble hair care and styling set.  If you do too, then why not enter? You never know, you could be the lucky winner.

The answer to the question is 'Six' and you need to submit your entry before 16 April.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win A Win Green Playhouse Worth £200

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 1 April, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win A Win Green Playhouse Worth £200I love the idea of winning a holiday of a lifetime to a far-flung exotic island, or a car, or something else equally fabulous but I like the idea of winning a stack of cold hard cash even more!

There is £2,200 up for grabs for the lucky winner of this cash competition.

The answer is 'B' (Ostrich) and the closing date for online entries is 5 April at 5pm

If you enter this competition you could win yourself some Fireman Sam prizes - well, win them for your child at least (unless you're a grown-up Fireman Sam fan...).

All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is enter your details before 5pm on 13 April

When my youngest son was around two and three years old, he had a real 'thing' for playing in playhouses - he LOVED them and getting him out was harder than getting replies to my text messages from my eldest son who's just completed his first week in the Army!

If you have a young one who loves playhouses then enter this competition to win a Win Green playhouse worth £200 - you can choose either a Gingerbread Cottage or a Fire Station.

The answer is Chislehurst  and the closing date for entries is 30 April.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win A Holiday To Northern Spain

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 30 March, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win A Holiday To Northern SpainI'm sure there are parts of Ibiza that are lovely, I'm just not so sure it will ever be able to shake off the image I have of it - party capital, lots of hideously drunk teenagers with anything but a relaxing holiday on their mind.

However, just because I think that doesn't mean this holiday to Ibiza that's just waiting to be won, will be anything like the above scenario from hell (unless you are one of the teenagers of course!) and it's a free holiday, so you might as well chance your arm.

The answer is Playa Den Bossa and closing date for entries is 31 July.

Now, if you go on that holiday, or any other where there's sunshine, then you're going to need a pair of sunglasses - there's a pair of Retrosun sunnies just waiting to be won by someone at the end of this competition and they're worth £600, if expensive shades do it for you!

Personally, I'm happy with £10 jobbies from Tesco. That way I don't have to sob every time I drop them, lose them or sit on them!

The answer is 2006 and you'll need to get your entries in before 12 April

I feel I should include the, almost, obligatory iPad competition today - there's yet another one up for grabs and you just need to answer a few survey questions and hand over your details to be in with a chance of winning it.

You need to get that done by 16 April.

My cousin lives in Southern Spain and one day I'll get myself out there to see her; I can't offer you the chance to win a holiday in the south but you can win a holiday to Northern Spain.

The winner will enjoy return overnight sailings from Plymouth or Portsmouth to Santander with Brittany Ferries with car and a cabin, combined with up to 3 nights bed and breakfast at a choice of Parador hotels in Cantabria and £200 spending money.

The answer to the question is 'Yellow' and you must submit your entries by 22 April

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win A New iPad

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 27 March, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win A New iPadWell it was bound to happen - there are more iPad 3s being given away than hot dinners at a soup kitchen!  Still, winning one is preferable to buying one so you might as well enter this competition if you think you might like one.

All you have to do is share your 'thought of the day' and if it's read out on the radio, you win; simple.

Closing date for entries is 14 May.

My son has just joined the Army and my daughter is currently going through selection and racing against the clock to start her Basic Training in September - I tell you, it's edge of your seat stuff and enough to drive any parent to drink, which is why I'm very tempted to enter this competition to win a rather nice case of Burgundy!

The answer is 1750 and entries must be submitted before 8 May.

To be honest, I fancy getting away from it all for a weekend too  - I don't care where, even a weekend in Paris will do! If you fancy a weekend break to the city of love then enter this competition and you might be the lucky one - take me with you if you win, I'll buy you lunch...

All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is enter your email address before 7 April.

What with an Army kit list to buy for, a teenage daughter who's going through karate gradings rather quickly and a younger son who does more after school activities than there are evenings available in a week, money is slipping through my fingers at an alarming rate!

So I'll 'fight' you for the £3,210 that's up for grabs at the end of this competition.

The answer is 'B' (I promise that's the right one - if nothing else, I fight fair) and the closing date for online entries is 2 April (that's this coming Monday).

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win £1000 To Spend At The Apple Store, A Blackberry Curve 8250 Or A Trip Of A Lifetime To India

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 25 March, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win £1000 To Spend At The Apple Store, A Blackberry Curve 8250 Or A Trip Of A Lifetime To IndiaIf you're an Apple devotee (and I am, apart from the iPad - I don't 'need' on of those!) then you'll definitely want to enter this competition to win £1000 to spend at the Apple store.

I'd go for another iPhone 4S (my old 3GS is currently my unlocked overseas phone) a whole STACK of iTunes vouchers and perhaps a new iPod - my second gen' nano is looking at little beaten up these days.

You just need to fill in your details before 31 March to be in with a chance of winning.

If you prefer Blackberries to 'apples' then enter this competition instead - you could bag yourself a Blackberry Curve 8520 along with £10 credit to put on it and some Bassetts vitamins (random!).

The answer is 430 Cals and you need to get your entries in before 24 April.

I must confess, India is NOT on my list of 'countries I'd really love visit' list - it just doesn't appeal to me at all.  If it appeals to you, however, then you should enter this competition to win what's being described as the 'trip of a lifetime to India'.

Here's what you'll win:

OVERVIEW OF TOUR 
Tour the imperial architecture of Lutyen's New Delhi
Explore Delhi's bustling streets and vibrant bazaars
Visit the Taj Mahal and sandstone Agra Fort
See the Mughal City of Fatehpur Sikri
Stay in 'Pink City' Jaipur and visit Amber Fort

GUIDE 
In each destination you'll be accompanied by your own English-speaking guide for all sightseeing.

FLIGHTS 
Standard class flights to and from Heathrow to Delhi

MEAL PLAN 
Price includes breakfast throughout.

ACCOMMODATION 
Five star accommodation throughout.

The answer is 'Saffron, cardamom and coriander' and you need to submit your entries before 30 April.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win Trips To Vegas OR Vienna, A Nintendo Wii And Jaffa Cakes Or Tickets To The Goodwood Festival Of Speed

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 18 March, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win Trips To Vegas OR Vienna, A Nintendo Wii And Jaffa Cakes Or Tickets To The Goodwood Festival Of SpeedIf you're a Rod Stewart fan then you'll DEFINITELY want to enter this competition - the lucky winner will get to fly to Vegas, with a friend, for three nights to see Rod Stewart AND get to go backstage to meet the man himself!

Great, if you're a 'Rod the Plod' groupee and if you're not...well, you get three nights in Vegas.

Here are the specific prize details: return travel from Glasgow to Las Vegas on April 6-9, three nights' accommodation at the Planet Hollywood Hotel & Resort, transfers from Las Vegas airport, tickets to see Rod Stewart: The Hits at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace and the chance to meet Rod backstage after the gig.

The answer to the question is 'Springfield Quay' and you need to submit your entries before 23 March.

If Vegas isn't your thing but you have this strange desire to visit a place beginning with V, then how about this three-night trip to Vienna (I can never say, or write, the word Vienna and not hear the Ultravox song in my head)?

The answers are:

  • The Princess Beatrice (also known as Beatrice Mary Victoria Feodorelater and Princess Henry of Battenberg) and
  • Julia Margaret Cameron

The closing date for entries is 22 March.

STILL not have a Nintendo Wii and love Jaffa Cakes?  Then this is the competition for YOU - up for grabs is a Nintendo Wii and a Jaffa Cakes hamper; I'm not sure which I'd enjoy most to be honest!

The answer is 'fruit scones' and the closing date is 17 April.

I've been going to the Goodwood Festival of Speed for years; my mum's a track marshal and my dad works in F1, which makes it nice and easy for us to get tickets.

For everyone else, unless you book early, it can be a little tougher - especially VIP tickets, they're a bit like gold dust these days.

If you fancy a pair of VIP tickets for the Goodwood Festival of Speed then enter this competition, because that's the prize going to the lucky winner.

Just fill in your details before 30 April for your chance to win.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win £5000 Worth of Gadgets

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 6 March, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win £5000 Worth of GadgetsI wonder if there'll be a rush of iPad 2 competitions in the run up to the release of the iPad 3?  OR whether they'll drop off the face of the earth and it will be as if the 2 never existed.  We'll find out soon enough, in the meantime here's an iPad 2 for you to try and win.

Just answer questions about breakfast and submit your details before 31 March.

If a single gadget just isn't enough, how would you like to win £5000 worth of gadgets? Sounds pretty awesome to me and that's what's up for grabs at the end of this competition - there's bound to be an iPad 2 in there somewhere too.

Just fill in the form and submit your details before 20 March to be in with a chance. 

If you've never been to Paris and fancy flying there for free, then enter this competition to win a couple of flights to the city of love - it's better than a poke in the eye with a sharp baguette and you won't get stuck on a Eurostar train for seven hours either!

The answer is 'Paris' and you need to submit your entries before 23 March.

If you're a hair care butterfly, like I am, and haven't tried Joico products before then you should enter this competition; you could win a year's supply of Joico Smooth Cure worth over £400, it's lovely stuff too!

The answer is '72' and the closing date for entries is 31 March.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win Mum, Baby And Toddler Goodies Worth Over £1,300Wow, Practical Parenting and Pregnancy is 25 years old and to celebrate they're giving away a TON of mum, baby and toddler bits and pieces, worth over £1,300, to one lucky winner!

To be in with a chance of winning you just need to submit your details before 18 April.

Christmas is nothing but a distant memory already but pressies still need to be bought for birthdays and they have a nasty habit of being spread out throughout the year (unless you did what I did and have two children on the same day in different years; I don't recommend that, it makes for a very expensive day!).

To ease the toy buying financial burden, enter this competition to win £300 worth of Smyths Toys vouchers.

The answer to the question is 'Over £40' and you need to submit your entries before 8 March (that's this coming Thursday).

One of the most used, best value for money presents (when you worked out the cost against hours of use) I ever bought for my kids was a big garden trampoline.  They loved it, it got them outside and it got their heart rate up and some decent exercise in.

Garden trampolines aren't cheap, but you could win an Atlantic 8ft Trampoline set complete with enclosure, ladder and cover if you enter this competition.

There's no question to answer, just hand over your details before 31 March to be in with a chance of winning.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Prizes Worth Over £940 For One Yummy Mummy It had to happen eventually, I'm becoming completely assimilated by Apple and seduced by their, always, stunning and sexy gadgets.

I've fallen in love with iMacs and this MacBook Air that's up for grabs looks rather tempting too - the only thing I'm really not fussed about is the iPad (brace yourselves for a rash of iPad 3 competitions as soon as it's released!).

If you fancy getting your hands on this MacBook Air, plus Netflix free for a year, then enter this competiton.

The answer is 'MoneyBall' and closing date for entries is 11 March

If taking a jaunt off to somewhere hot and combining it with a passion for walking sounds like your sort of thing, then you might just want to take a look at this competition!  The prize is a walking holiday around Cyprus, for two, worth £2,000.

There's nothing to do other than submit your details before 20 May and keeping your fingers crossed.

It's Mother's Day soon (I must remember to by myself some presents, the teenagers won't) and there are, and I quote, "10 gifts worth over £940 for one yummy mummy to be won!"

I don't know if I qualify as a yummy mummy but I rather fancy some of the gifts that are up for grabs.

Simply enter your details before 12 March to be in with a chance of winning the yummy mummy stash.

Free Competitions: Win £2000, A Luxury Spa Break, Style Makeover Plus £400 ASOS Vouchers

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 14 February, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win £2000, A Luxury Spa Break, Style Makeover Plus £400 ASOS VouchersMy eldest son is just 38 days away from leaving home and starting his life in the British Army.  They get paid within seven days of reporting for duty and then he'll have more disposable cash than me and my husband put together!

He's not overly happy that I won't put any credit on his phone unless he earns the amount he's asking for (the Bank of Mum is now CLOSED!) - perhaps I should suggest he enters this competition to win £2000.

Just enter your details before 16 March.

I've been working absolutely FLAT OUT since the beginning of the year (I've been up since 3am this morning, this is now usual, 5am is 'late') so this morning I booked myself a three-hour pamper session at my local spa.

Instead of booking and paying for a short pamper sesh, why don't you enter this competition to win a luxury spa break for two at Champneys Springs Health Farm PLUS £150 to spend. 

You just need to fill in the form - you've got plenty of time as the closing date isn't until 6 May.

I'm in the process of growing my hair and I'm right at that stage where it's long, but long enough, and I could quite easily give up and go back to a shorter bob - I'm languishing in hair no-man's land!

If your hairdo could do with a bit of an overhaul then enter this competition because that's exactly what's up for grabs - a hair style overhaul plus £400 of ASOS vouchers.

The answer to the question is 'cat ears' and you need to enter before 12 March.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win A Holiday To Malta

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 12 February, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win A Holiday To MaltaI've never been to Malta, but we had friends who used to go there ALL the time - they said it was great!  Well you'd expect them to really, otherwise they'd have been mad to keep going there if they thought otherwise!

If you'd like to win a five star holiday to Malta then enter this competition.

The closing date for entries is 31 March and you just need to fill in your details.

My Wii is old and is beginning to sound a bit tired, so I might just enter this competition to win a Wii console with a Phineas and Ferb game - I have NO idea who Phineas and Ferb are but it's just the Wii I'm after.

If need a new Wii, or don't have one at all, then answer the question, hand over your details and you could be the lucky winner.

The answer is Candace and you need to enter before 1 March.

Competition prizes are great but sometimes you can't beat a large amount of cold hard cash in the bank.  If swelling your coffers by £3,200 appeals to you then enter this competition and keep your fingers crossed!

The answer is B (Birds) and you need to enter before 16 February.

Once you've watched a BIG TV it's never very nice going back to a small one; if you have a small TV but not the budget to buy a HUGE one then enter this competition and see if you can't win one instead.

Up for grabs is a Samsung 40” 1080 LCD TV and I'm sure it would look rather lovely mounted on your wall.

The answer is Little Red Riding Hood and you need to make sure you enter before 18 February.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win A Mediterranean Cruise, A Holiday To Iceland, A Monica Vinader Bracelet And £500 Of John Lewis VouchersI've just come back from walking my dogs in the snow; they love it, I don't - put me on a seven-night Mediterranean cruise NOW, PLEASE!  That's what is up for grabs at the end of this competition.

Just guess what you think is the answer to the question (you don't need to be right) and fill in your details before 29 February.

IF, on the other hand, you're a fan of snow, ice and cold then you might prefer to enter this competition to win a holiday to Iceland instead of the Med'.

The answer to the question is 'Vatnajokull' (try and pronounce it, go on - I dare you *grin*) and you need to make sure you submit your entries before 16 March.

If you're looking for a bit of bling that's understated, elegant and comes from Harrods then enter this competition to win a Monica Vinader bracelet - it's made from sterling silver and can be engraved with a message of your choice.

Simply fill in your details before 15 February to be in with a chance of winning.

I'm rather fond of shopping in John Lewis now and again; I'm even more fond of it when I'm not footing the bill, so £500 of John Lewis vouchers would be rather nice!

If you'd like to have them to spend, just tell John Lewis when your car and house insurance renewal dates are, before 29 February, and they'll enter you into the draw.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win An Intelligent Printer, Luxury Bedding, An Ingenious Washing Line (seriously), £1000 Of Farrell Men's Clothing Vouchers

by Sarah Macdonald in Comps on 7 February, 2012 at 5:00 pm

Free Competitions: Win An Intelligent Printer, Luxury Bedding, An Ingenious Washing Line (seriously), £1000 Of Farrell Men's Clothing VouchersI've got two printers on my desk at home - one is an HP laser printer and the other is a Canon ink-jet one that has something daft like 10 different colour cartridges. It's also a scanner, photocopier bla bla and can do most things other than cook the dinner.

It didn't cost much BUT, and here's the catch, the cartridges cost me a fortune on a regular basis - I tell you, it would probably be cheaper for me to just buy a new printer each time!

If you'd like an amazing printer for free (I can't comment on the running costs thereafter, mind you - although the blurb claims it's cost effective to run) then enter this competition to win a Kodak Hero printer worth £200.

The missing word from the sentence is 'INK' and you need to get your entries in before 2 April.

I find few things harder to resist than towels and bedding - I have that many towels and bedding sets I could change my sheets once a week and not have to wash any bedding for at least two months!

Even though I know this, I'm still drawn to 'shiny' new sheets, pillow cases and duvet covers like you wouldn't believe - hence this competition to win a luxury set of Sheridan bedding *drool*

Free Competitions: Win A Case Of 12 Unique Whiskies, iPad 2, George Foreman Health Grill, Set of Sabatier Knives

Free Competitions: Win A Case Of 12 Unique Whiskies, iPad 2, George Foreman Health Grill, Set of Sabatier KnivesI've lost count as to how many iPad2 competitions I've entered now, but I'm still too tight-fisted to buy one - not only that the iPad3 is supposed to be hitting the market soon, so perhaps I should just wait for that instead!

If you're still hankering after an iPad 2, and haven't had any luck with out previous 'pad competitions, then enter this one and keep your fingers crossed.

Click 'CLICK HERE TO ENTER' on the page at the end of THIS LINK, then log in/register to MAILONLINE.  Answer 'Would you like to receive further information from the Mail and Canda's West?' with YES or NO and click CONTINUE - simple!

The closing date is the 2 March.

I'm rather partial to the odd shot of whiskey now and then; years ago I went to Scotland and stayed at a very lovely hotel on Royal Terrace and spent a very happy evening sampling lots of different whiskey from their very well stocked whiskey bar!

Win this competition and you'll be the proud owner of a case of 12 unique whiskeys - just remember to invite me round when you crack them open.

There's no question to answer, just fill in your details before 1 March to enter.

Sharp knives are a must in the kitchen as far as I'm concerned, even if you don't like cooking.  They just make food prep' so much easier, faster and more efficient - although you might want to stock up on some plasters.

Sabatier knives are considered to be some of the best knives on the market and you can win a set of five Sabatier blades, worth £80,  if you enter this competition.

Another competition where they don't want answers, just your details - make sure you submit them before 2 March.

A HUGE part of my non-PlayPennies life (yes, I do have one!) is devoted to Health and Fitness and I'm absolutely smitten with George Foreman grills - they are, quite simply, AWESOME.

Enter this competition and you could bag yourself a George Foreman Health Grill and reduce the fat content of your meals by 42%!

The answer to the question is '42%' and you need to get your entries in before 10 February - that's this coming Friday.

GOOD LUCK!

Free Competitions: Win £500 Of Morrisons Vouchers

Free Competitions: Win £500 Of Morrisons VouchersI fly often and not the last time but the time before that I sat next to this really nice old chap who had a couple of glasses of wine with dinner; after dinner he took a couple of pills and within 20 minutes he was away with the proverbial fairies!  An hour later we had to put a call out for any medics on board - it was 'interesting'.

For my 'trouble' the cabin crew gave me a bottle of Lanson champagne (there were no spaces in first class, otherwise I would have been moved upstairs - gutted!) and I can highly recommend it!

The winner of this competition will win a case of Lanson champagne; feel free to share it with us here at PlayPennies *grin*

Closing date for entries is 29 February and you just need to hand over your details.

I don't know about you, but my grocery bill is always massive regardless of how hard I try to keep it under £100 a week!  I can tell you that a £500 Morrisons voucher wouldn't go amiss - if you feel the same then enter this competition and you could just win that very thing!

The answer is 27p and you need to enter before 26 February.

My youngest son got a Nintendo 3DS for Christmas and he's on the prowl for more games for it - if he was old enough he could enter this competition to win a 3D game collection for the Nintendo 3DS.

The answer is 'bingo' and you need to get your entries in before 29 February.

My office wall is usually awash with Post-Its (other sticky notes are available!) but apparently this is old fashioned and the good ol' Post-It is destined to become a thing of the past - at least that's what the makers of this Video Memo Pad are hoping (I will RESIST!).

The answer is 'magnetic back' and the closing date for entries is 17 February.

GOOD LUCK!
