Something For The Weekend - Win a Nintendo 2DS with Frubes

Hello again compers!  So here we are in 2015, woohoo!  How was New Years for you?  We had family staying with us this year so we all stayed up past midnight to watch the fireworks on TV and toasted the coming year.  It is also my birthday on New Year’s Day, so we got to have a nice celebration that day too.  It has been a really lovely festive season, but things are definitely winding down now and the prospect of things getting back to normality is actually quite a tempting prospect.  Have you managed to secure any wins for 2015 yet?  It is a hard task isn’t it, as we have all been comping less the last week or so probably, spending more time doing other fun things with family and friends.  Still, 2015 sis a new year full of exciting comping opportunities!

I am planning to get back into some comping this weekend, as well as starting to think about the children going back to school next Tuesday.  Plans need to be made for ironing, making sure all the bags are ready and loading the house full of lunchbox essentials.  Will you be picking up some lunchbox goodies this weekend too?  If so do keep your eyes peeled for promotional packs of Frubes while you are shopping, and you could be bagging yourself some lovely prizes.  Frubes are giving away one main prize of a Nintendo 2DS console, plus a number of games.  They are also offering 10 second place prize packs containing a Nintendo 2DS, gym bag and a game.  200 runners up will also win prize packs containing a gym bag, mini figure, stickers and other little extras.  To win you need to pick up a promotional pack of Frubes and enter the code online at http://www.supermariofrubes.com.  You will be notified instantly if you are a winner, each code can only be used once and make sure you keep your packaging and receipt in case you win.  Entries close at midnight on 30^th April 2015, so plenty of time to pick up some promotional packs.     

If you are hoping to win some games and toys for the children, grandchildren or the whole family this January, here are some other fab comps to be entering this weekend:

• Did you enjoy some family board games over Christmas?  We did, it is one of our favourite things to do on winter evenings.  Babyworld are giving away a great bundle of traditional games for the whole family in their comp, including snakes & ladders, happy families, snap and 3D noughts & crosses.  To enter all you need to do is register or log into the website before midnight on 4^th January 2015.
• Do you have a Barbie fan to think of?  Both my girls are mad on the fashion doll, and for the first year this Christmas my youngest asked for a Barbie of her own, rather than one she has to share with her sister!  I know she would love to win the Barbie Malibu Avenue shops that Made For Mums are giving away in their comp.  To win one of nine sets simply register or log into the website and answer the question (Our advice – Dog) by 23:59 on 5^th January 2015.
• We don’t have very many boys to buy presents for in our family – just one nephew.  I sometimes feel like my husband misses out on playing with boys’ toys, because we only have daughters!  I know that winning one of the two Propel RC Air Combat Helicopters that FQ Magazine are giving away would transport him back to his youth!  To try your luck at winning simply enter your details at the website by 18:00 on 6^th January 2015.
• Even though we only have girls, we do have a fair few tractor toys in our house!  My husband and his family are from South Gloucestershire, and both our girls were born in the West Country.  The John Deere toys by Tomy that Little Bird are giving away are fantastic examples of farming machinery in toy form, and are a great prize.  To win a Big Scoop Excavator and a Monster Treads Shake & Sounds Tractor enter your details online by midnight on 12^th January 2015.
• We love collecting games here – card games, classic games, modern games – you name it!  One of our favourites is Connect 4 and National Geographic Kids are giving away 50 copies of the classic game in their current comp.  Entrants must be 16 or under and need to answer the question at the website (Our advice – c. quadruple it) by midnight on 14^th January 2015.

Happy weekend comping, and lots of Lucky Dust to you all!
