Something For The Weekend - Win Real Gold with Gold from Flora

Hello again compers!  How was your week, any nice wins to report?  Still nothing new to report here, but we have been on half term here with the children at home, so always throws the comping routine out of kilter somewhat.  The weather has been pretty good too, so when I haven’t been working I have been spending some good quality, family time with my husband and children enjoying the delights of the Isle of Wight.  The weather has been far too nice to spend it indoors for more time than is necessary.

Our favourite kind of meal when the weather gets warmer has to be a good, old-fashioned picnic.  I love nothing better than making up a flask of coffee, another of hot chocolate and filling the picnic rucksack (we aren’t that traditional to have a basket I am afraid) with all manner of sandwiches, fruit, crisps, cakes and salads.  We have had quite a few picnics this week so I will need to restock the fridge this weekend when I go shopping.  I need to try and keep my eyes peeled for promotional packs of Flora Gold while I am out, so I can join in with their amazing new on-pack promotion. 

Pick up a promotional 400g pack of Gold from Flora and you could be winning real gold!  They are giving away 6 x 400g in 24 carat gold, or the cash equivalent worth around £10,000!  There are also 2,000 runners up prizes of 1g of 24 carat gold nuggets to be won, worth £27 each.  To enter this instant win competition you need to purchase a promotional tub and when you are roughly half way through you will see a prize notification if you are a winner!  To claim a 1g gold nugget you need to clean the tub and send the winning message portion in an envelope to the address detailed on the website (make sure to take a photo first, just in case it goes missing).  If you are a lucky winner of 400g of 24 carat gold you need to follow the instructions that will be on the packaging.  When you claim either prize you need to let them know if you would prefer the gold itself, or the cash equivalent as s cheque – what a dilemma!  I have been told that the promotional packs of Gold by Flora are often hidden amongst non-promotional packs at the moment, so do have a good root through if you don’t see any this weekend – good luck!

If you are a bit of a magpie and fancy trying to win some other glittery prizes, then why not try these competitions this weekend as well:

• Do you love Trollbeads jewellery?  Their pieces are on trend and funky, and yet hold a classic, contemporary quality.  Equestrian Vogue is giving away a gorgeous “Free Spirit” Trollbeads bracelet at the moment, featuring a leather strap, deep blue Milky Way bead and a gorgeous solid silver horse head bead.  The piece is worth £145 and to enter you need to Follow the Trollbeads Facebook page and answer the question (Our advice – Horse) by the closing date of 23:59 on 31^st May 2015.
• Do you like to spruce up your accessories when summer comes?  Visit LVBT and you could be bagging yourself £150 of summer accessories including necklaces, earrings, bracelets, bags and rings!  What fun you will have choosing what to wear with what, and you will never be short of an accent piece to go with your favourite summer outfits!  Enter your details at the website by the closing date of midnight on 31^st May 2015 for a chance to win.
• I think all jewellery pieces should have a story behind them, and the prize being given away by The Diary of a Jewellery Lover blog is a great example of this.  Enter their current competition and you could be winning a beautiful poppy necklace from The Poppy Shop, commemorating 75 years since the Battle of Britain and 70 years since VE Day.  The necklaces are made from metal taken from Spitfire P7350 during its recent restoration, and each necklace is slightly different due to the age and character of the metal.  Each necklace is also beautifully engraved and comes with a pretty chain.  To enter use the Rafflecopter widget before the closing date of 31^st May 2015 and you can enter daily until that time as well.
• Do you like to buy jewellery as an investment?  Well the bracelet being given away by Conde Nast Traveller at the moment is definitely that!  The stunning, bespoke Les Pitons Vertes bracelet took the London designer Stephen Einhorn 350 hours to craft and sparkles with emeralds, 18 carat Fairtrade gold and 312 diamonds!  This precious bracelet is worth a staggering £75,000 and to enter for a chance to win all you need to do is to answer the question at the website (Our advice – St Lucia) by the closing date of midnight on 7^th June 2015.
• Are you a lover of pearls – I know I am.  There is something timeless, elegant and classic about a piece of jewellery containing pearls, and they never seem to go out of fashion.  OK! Magazine is giving away a beautiful Thomas Sabo pearl charm bracelet at the moment, which is perfect to wear on its own or as a carrier for other Thomas Sabo charms.  To enter simply supply your details at the website before the closing date of 18:00 on 21^st June 2015.

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