One of my biggest competition wins thus far :) A pair of shoes from Fred Perry. Probably the most expensive pair of shoes I now own (I'm such a cheapskate usually!) so a nice treat for me!

1000 Boots Advantage Card Points
First I received an email saying I had won a trip to Barcelona. Then two hours later I got an email saying no you haven't!
Boots had managed to email all 9000 entrants to their competition and needless to say people weren't happy! As a way to say sorry they've given everybody 1000 points for their advantage cards - the equivalent of £10 to spend in store.
Better than nothing I suppose, and if they hadn't made the error then I wouldn't have a holiday or a free £10!

Thorntons Continental Viennese Bar
Had a voucher for a free Continental Viennese Bar from Thorntons :) I love these, they are one of my favourite chocolates in the box so to have it in bar form is yummy :) So fluffy and light and the sugared coating gives it a lovely crispyness on top!

Harrod's Chocolate Cupcake Giftset
This was a twitter win from nearly a month ago which has arrived at last :) A mini cupcake gifset from Harrods. They look very cute and are a nice treat as I would never justify the cost to buy them myself!

The first 1000 entries to a bigger competition automatically won this little cosmetic mirror from Pebble Grey, and I have to say it's lovely! It comes in such a nice presentation box, and the LED lights on the mirror are so cute!

Bimuno Immunaid
Not the most exciting freebie, but quite useful for my health I suppose! A free pack of Bimuno Immunaid, supposed to boost your immune system as well as encourage good bacteria in your gut. Sounds lovely!
Anyway, I was thinking how good it was I received them just as my last pack of vitamins ran out. Until I tried one. And they are pretty disgusting. I was expecting a nice orange flavour like most chewy vitamins but I don't even know what I could describe these as! I will probably try and finish the pack and see if I am suddenly healthier, but I don't think Bassetts have much competition for now.
Value: According to their website....£9.99!! This seems absolutely ridiculous when their main competitors sell for around £2.99. Blimey! They must have some pretty good ingredients in.
