I don’t know why but I still think this competition has been a con all along.

Any particular reason, or just cos nobody from here has won?

I don't think Glastonbury would risk the reputation damage for a few tickets that would cost them almost nothing.

That seems exceptionally unlikely for multiple reasons.

There's all manner of legal protections and obligations on these kind of promotions, and both the Co-op and GFL would suffer plenty of reputational damage if they were caught fiddling it. The actual competition is being administered on their behalf by specialist company that works with plenty of major brands.

The unfortunate truth is that even someone buying 50 or so entries is still likely to be in a tiny minority when the Co-op has ~4,000 branches nationwide many (most?) of which will be selling this and presumably those that do stock it will be selling more than 1 block of cheese in an average month.

Yeah the odds of someone off here winning are infinitesimal, and the chances that Glastonbury would fix the competition even smaller.

yeah ... I kind of agree .... Although the competition isnt run by Glastonbury is it although its association with the festival is quite clear ?  the chances might be small of someone on here winning ... but on Glasto chat ( 44.5k members ) too ? or twitter ? we haven't had any individual accounts claim to have won tickets on any of them ? and we have now had around 15 pairs of tickets given away ? which means 30 people have won and kept it quiet on social media which is unusual but I guess just the way it gone ,,, it just seems odd .... 

that said im still entering so its not suspicious enough for me to stop .... its just weird
