    I went on a competition entering spree and have just been notified that I'd won one of the competitions I'd entered. Yeah, great, I've never won anything in my life.

    The competition was to win 100 chair covers and sashes and fresh floral table centres. Fantastic, would have saved me a few bob. BUT, when I entered I didn't read where the company are located. They cover the north east, I'm in kent, derrrrrr!

    I'm going to have to email back and tell them that I'm an idiot LOL x

    Hahaa, I'm gutted but can't help but laugh at my own stupidity. I've found a lady who'll do them at a £1 a chair anyway and fresh flowers are included in our package too but we could have taken them off. Oh well, I'll enter some more tonight (local ones though) :) x

    I nearly did that with a wedding cake competition. Fortunately the lady took pity on me, and pointed out where she was and that delivery would cost nearly as much as the amount I'd save on the cake. She said she'd put the entry in for me if I wanted, but I said no.
