semmtexx Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I’m not a huge fan of cider so (if I get tickets) I’ll bring the spare tinnies to the meet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Music Girl Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Didn't realise it was a draw! But no I'll be entering the codes instantly I'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semmtexx Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) Imagine how gutted you’d be if you missed out on the April round and forgot to enter the codes. Bit like if you’d barred premium texts on your phone and then forgotten all about it. Gah! Edited January 22, 2020 by semmtexx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a lovely idea to keep the codes in case you get lucky in the resale but if you're anything like me who's trying to get the festival via as many avenues as I can find, it might be good to just enter the codes out of the way and then try and forget about the draw!

Crazyfool01 Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 I’m confused as to reasons why but each to their own ... I’m writing the codes down on a peice of paper and will save them for someone else (hopefully) that’s in desperate need after the resale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Music Girl Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 It really makes no difference as if you are lucky in the resale and lucky in the competition, you can let Malletts know and they will redraw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Music Girl Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 As I say, I can't find the cider anyway so don't think it will be an issue for me! Pretty depressed to hear that the draw isn't until 7 June. If I didn't know I was going by then I'd have pretty much written it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep an earlier one would have been far better ... but not so good for the sales of that product ... it’s one of those last hopes things ... potentially like some work that might well crop up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyfool01 Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 found one ... this is harder than the treasure hunt ... 12 pack last one on the shelf ... and the 4 packs that were filled last night already out of stock ... mallets need to up their production Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1986 Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 I saw loads of those 12 packs in Swindon's big Tesco. Anyone who has one in their town might want to try there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zico martin Posted January 25, 2020 Report Share Posted January 25, 2020 I saw that tesco online had mallets so I went up to our local extra store in Swansea to pick some up but they were all without the glastonbury comp I'll keep looking though and hope that they get rid of their current stock asap!

The way things are ordered it might mean that until it sells it won't be reordered ..... unless you hide it somewhere in the shop that they can find ... and someone manually zeros a count on it thinking there is none ...

Yeah that's my worry, guess my best bet is just to make sure whenever I go out for day trips or weekends away with the family I may a point of checking all the off licences and supermarkets instead of the gift shops!

My personal thoughts on it are that its ok but not quite as nice as Thatchers .... but I prefer my ciders slightly sweeter ..... but putting it slightly differently im not exactly forcing it down my neck and the competition potential prize is a great sweetener Edited January 30, 2020 by crazyfool1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably be easier to find from March onwards when Mallets start promoting the competition - I reckon it's just production reasons why we've got a few crates with codes slipping through this early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
