Title: hidden competitions
Post by: Zak the Rabbit on March 28, 2007, 01:42

ive just been filling in all the giveaways/competitions online on gardeners world website and grow your owns website

my father in law has a subscription to GW, and passes his read mags on to me (fair enough, i bought the sub for him!) and it has 'subscriber only' competitions in it,

well, if you go to www.gardenersworld.com/extra you can fill in the entry forms and it doesnt ask if you have a subscription, and reading the T's & C's doesnt specify entrants must be subscribers either. As best i can see there is no link on the website to this page, so apparently they dont want you to know about it unless you have a sub.

so unless the beeb vet the entrants (which would breach their own T's & C's) anyone should have a chance of winning


just thought i'd mention that... :D
