Winning competitions
Has anyone ever won a radio or an internet competition? I wondered whether it's worth filling in all my details on the competition sites. I know they are just wanting all my details but if I can win something big, maybe it's worthwhile. Do you know anyone who has actually won a cruise, a car or maybe just a jar of coffee?

I have won a copy of The Scorpion King film. More recently I was a winner on a butter site where you enter codes from your purchases onto the website and your details go into a draw. I won some very nice kitchen electricals.
I won a 2 week holiday for 2 people in marrakech with �500. spending money in a competition that was run by the Daily Star a few years ago. the competition was easy so i did'nt expect to win anything, the ironic thing about it was i do not usually buy the daily Star it just happend that it was delivered by mistake that morning . I have entered several competitions since but so far no luck on any !!
Thanks to both. So there ARE real winners then! Classic fm only charge 4p a call for their competitions. I tried for the 23 day cruise yesterday but wasn't first time lucky! It made me start looking at internet competitions, just to see what's there. It seems the ones I delved into just want all your details, inc DOB, address, where you shop etc. Wonder if there really is a prize there at all or are they simply collecting data ...
