    Most of the time when I have won from a call it is a Dublin number, so hopefully you didn't miss anything. Im sure they will ring back if it was.

    Was yours delivered by An Post or by courier? Haven't heard anything back since and hoping I didn't miss the delivery!

    Just as you posted that got a call to say they were outside! Didn't get any emails or tracking info after the initial email so was hoping they hadn't forgotten.

    Nice wee pack, wasn't expecting the voucher or t-shirt!

    Ya I was suprised with the extras and it's a nice setup indeed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,957 ✭✭✭thesandeman


    Looks like there are different extras in the parcels.
    I got a cap, somebody else a hoodie, and now a t-shirt.

    Wins (and comps in general) are pretty sparse this year it seems.

    The tickets to events and the like was a great little success I got serious miles out of the last few years. Covid has really killed that one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 714 ✭✭✭ZombieMed


    Yeah I miss the preview screenings - I'd say they'll be few and far between until social distancing is retired.

    I received my Skechers this week too - very nice. Fair play Katie:)

    This happened to me about a year and half ago (but wasn't an unknown number) around 6pm, when I rang back it was Hot Press reception and I went through the I've just had a missed call from this number etc etc and they couldn't help me ... but if you look at the small print for the hot press competitions if you're not able to answer the call, prize goes to the next person.

    You could argue that it's unfair as perhaps your driving or maybe a shift worker who cannot always answer their phone or simply just busy at home.

    Maybe you've lost out on a limited edition guitar or maybe it was just a sales person trying to sell you insurance.

    I've tried to google for the T&C's of this one but to no avail.
    Anyone got any a website for it?
    I was going to ping them a email to see if my mobile number blocked.....apparently that is a thing if you enter regularly!

    Will post if I get a response of course!

    I've rejoined Facebook after a few years - just for competitions. I need to add a few friends so my profile doesn't look fake. Anyone want to friend me please do - Crochúir Ó Máille is the profile name. Thanks

    Nice - thought I was being stupid


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,957 ✭✭✭thesandeman


    Got my Skechers today. Apparently the courier left them into one of my local pubs two weeks ago assuming I'd be in every day. Must remind him I don't eat.

    It’s not Easter Eggs as such. Easter eggs in film etc are references / things hidden in movies that might refer to other films / people etc

    Example Yoda from Star Trek in ET is an obvious one. Others are more hidden (carpet in Toy Story one is the same carpet in The Shining)

    Anyone win the centra/ SuperValu Weber prize 🀔? I had myself and my partner enter every day on that one - really wanted one of those 🀣

    I think I know what to look for e.g. IDDQD is from Doom
    Not enough of a gamer tho for this competition, some there with just symbols

    Sometimes it can be a few weeks after the comp closes before they contact , so you might still get lucky
