This weekend I received £350 worth of holiday vouchers for Cumbria Cottages through the post. These were among the latest in a number of wins I have had since I began entering competitions again, in mid-December. The wins have ranged in size from a box of After Eight mints to two large boxes of Fisher Price toys.
Because many competitions and giveaways have more than one prize, it sometimes happens that I have won a prize that is of no use to me. It is my intention to sell those prizes because, like most of us at the moment, I need the money. In addition to the wide variety of auction sites and more traditional selling methods such as newspapers, there are also a number of comper forums that offer swaps or sales of unwanted prizes. So far, I haven't investigated too much, but plan to in the next few weeks.

Spode cups and saucers |
Anyone who knows me will take just one look at the beautiful Spode cup and saucer set below, with placemats and coasters and snigger to themselves. I have an appreciation for the design, the skill and beauty of the objects, but I would say that they are very feminine objects. Although, yes, I am female, I am not sure you could call me particularly feminine. I also don't have the room to begin collecting anything else - my husband tells me I already have far too many books in the place. I don't believe that there can be such a thing as too many books, personally.
