My email from the crowd finder just came through 😞

 

Are there promotional stickers on the cheese? They don’t have them in my Coop. I’ve bought two packs of cheese without them. 

No stickers, swiping your Coop card when you buy gives you an entry, so purchase your packs as separate transactions.  Also it's only Coop Group shops (with the blue cards) who are participating.

Thanks for the clarification. I'm 'put out' that I haven't won a couple of tickets for some efesters. I may have to resort to buying some of this cheese Now I know what to do, if that becomes a thing.

Oh, just remembered - I would have upvoted, but have ran out of them. That's mighty fine information.

I'm a bit obsessed with winning tickets, but I'm going anyway. Is that weird?

No, although I might not be the best person to comment.  My family think I'm nuts, possibly reached a new low last night on way home from gym when I insisted we stop at an almost on the way home co-op for a fruitless search for Clipper Tea.  "We need milk" I said.  I was fooling no one.

I drove to three different coops to find that damn tea…

I might have a look on my way home from work for some. Trying to map out all the coop shops I can feasibly visit haha

They hadn’t put the promotional packs out yet at all mine so I’m going to have to go for another hunt. Did pick up some more cheese and beer

I reckon that competitions closing prior to the cancellation deadline are certainly fair game - get your ticket for free (minus the cancellation fees), and can bring in a friend who doesn't have a ticket yet.

 

Not bothering with anything after that.

Most you have to give your registration number to Glastonbury so they’ll void the win if you’ve already got tickets (it’s in a lot of the terms and conditions for the comps)

Any dinner ideas that will use cheese? 🤪 Had spag bol last night with a criminal amount of cheese on top. Thinking nachos tonight maybe? With beer? Followed with Tony's and Tea for dessert?

That’s a good point - if I see any that stock it I may be a pest and ask if they’ve got any of the promotional packs out the back lol. Don’t know about anyone else but the Coops near me vary HUGELY in terms of what they stock? Some have amazing ranges of food and others are awful. So hard to anticipate what would be where as there’s no consistency?

The dark Tony's makes good brownies 🟫🤤.

Possible that only the winners and people who ticked the box to be kept informed of the progress of the fundraiser will be contacted.

Seems I was talking bollocks as I got an email this morning 🙄

I'd assume most people have more than one registration number though. I'd certainly give them a different one.

Yes, there's no limit. Can use the same details and photo on each without issue.

I feel like they’ve been quite quiet this year about where the bars have been found? Do we reckon this is so that people don’t stop buying in one particular area? I.e if one was found in Bristol, people in the west of England don’t just abandon all hope of finding one? (What I’m saying is that I want to know if one has been found in the north west!!)

I have 2 registrations, figured that it'd be useful to have a back-up available just in case anything went wrong on Ticket Day and my registration got locked...

My family think I'm nuts

Its the same here. They are still asking me how much I spend on cider, chocolate and cheese on last years competitions never mind this years collection of cans and wrappers. We went to family over the weekend and drove past a random Oxfam shop. I simultaneously needed to go to the toilet, felt car sick, needed to check the tyres etc in an attempt to find a legitimate reason to stop nearby. I was fooling nobody. I do genuinely wonder if its moving beyond just thinking I'm nuts and into something more corrosive relationship wise.
