Something For The Weekend - Win an Xbox One with Skittles

Hello again compers!  How is your week going, any nice wins to report?  A few early wins for December for me including some choccies on the M&S Pass the Parcel game and some body building protein shakes from an advent comp.  My favourite recent win has to be the Kindle Fire HD I won on a Facebook Like & Share comp - there were over 20,000 entries so am chuffed with this win!  Is it beginning to look a lot like Christmas at your house?  It is very festive indeed here with all the trees up, the girls’ bedroom decorated like a Winter Wonderland, and cards starting to go up.  I love the festive season, but find it very difficult juggling work, advent comping and doing fun things as a family.  Takes a lot of juggling this time of year, but if we get the balance right then it is all worth it.

Have the festive treats and snacks started arriving at your house?  We have a special table that gets moved into position this time of year to hold all the crisps, nuts, chocolates and biscuits that are bought just for the season.  We have already started on some of the snacks, so it does need topping up a little.  When I go shopping this weekend I will be looking out for the last few packs of Skittles that might be in my local supermarkets.  Their on-pack promotion to instantly win an Xbox One and other goodies ends on 31st December 2014, so it might be worth snapping up any promotional packs that are still around.  To enter you need to buy a promotional pack of the yummy little sweets, and enter it online at http://www.skittlesup.com.  You will then be notified instantly if you have won one of the fantastic prizes.  They are giving away 110 x Xbox One consoles, 200 x Kinect Sports Rituals games for Xbox One, 500,000 x Zoo Tycoon Avatar Hats (as a digital download), 1,000,000 3 day Xbox Live Gold Passes and 35,000,0000 Skittles digital wallpaper downloads.  The competition closes at 12:00 on 31st December 2014, so you need to get your skates on to find any remaining packs that are still in circulation.  You can enter once per email address per day – do let us know how you get on with this one!

On a gadgets and gaming theme, here are some other fab competitions for this coming weekend:

  • The Xbox UK Facebook page are having their own Advent Competition this year.  To win consoles, games and accessories Like their Facebook page and look out for the simple instructions in their daily posts.  This competition runs every day until 12th December 2014, so plenty of opportunities to win something nice!

  • Has someone in your family been after a brand new Sony PlayStation 4 for Christmas?  If so then you need to get entering the amazing competition from Warner Brothers.  They are giving away not just a PlayStation 4, but also a copy of Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham to play on it!  To enter simply register with or log into the website and answer the question (Our advice – Bruce Wayne) by 12:00 on 8th December 2014.
  • How about bagging a brand new iPad Air 2 – wouldn’t that make someone a great Christmas present?  The Stuff website are giving one away in their current competition, and all you need to do to enter is answer the question online (Our advice – Paddington) by 23:45 on 10th December 2014.
