Cath, I recently entered a Nivea competition and won a prize.

After much drama, it was delivered. It was a pair of sunglasses - I ended up giving it away, because it is not my style :)

Was it a designer pair or one of those pharmacy revolving display specials?

0861 isn't a premium line is it? I thought that was for "word" numbers. Not premium rate, but not free.

I think it's maxicall (i.e. a national call), but I'm not sure.

Anyway, I got my mom to enter too, and she also "won". so I'm guessing that everyone who enters wins the default prize, which implies that it's probably not much of a prize.

Or I just belong to a very lucky family ;)

Has anyone entered a Sunsilk competition recently? I sms'd my barcode and immediately received a reply saying I won a prize, and to phone an 0861 number to claim it... this makes me a bit sceptical about the whole thing.

Has anyone else 'won' anything, and is it a real prize?

How can you say it cost me nothing? The internet is not for free, at least not in my part of the world :)

Well did it cost money to enter? money that you had not laid out already? The sms system that costs R1.50 or higher? Not that 1.50 is alot but when 400000 people enter they make a boat load of cash :p. These remind of that brainbox BS on etv.

Cath i will bet everyone wins who enters wins but there must be some catch, phone the number and see maybe your family is lucky, i am very skeptical but phone it and see :). I keep getting messages from homemark that i have won this or that and i must phone some number and i never do because i know there is a catch.
