Party time!

Rob and Hua are still here and they may even be staying here until moday now. I've even emailed Steve Wright twice but he's ignoring me and it doesn't look like he's going to say farwell and best wishes from win4now.co.uk.

Uh oh Rob and Hua are moving now... I have to go and reluctantly help :-(

Bad news in the Win4now office

It's the end of an era in the Win4now offices. Competitions, emails, question blocks just don't seem to matter anymore...

Rob and Hua are moving offices.

Yep, they're both ditching us all and going to the office next door. It's all the more poignant as the quiz is on now and as of Friday it just won't be the same again. Although it might mean someone else can answer the questions.

So, I ask anyone who has a farewell message for Rob and Hua to leave their goodluck and goodbye comments below.

Rob's bottom lip is now trembling...

New Competitions

I've eaten my lunch already and I'm still hungry.

I'm not here to tell you about my delicious cheese salad sandwich with no egg or mayo that I've just eaten, as it's new competition time.

If you like drinking beer and watching football whilst spending argos vouchers with a monkey in your back pocket then it's good times for you at Win4now.

New competitions this month include...

A monkey (stop looking for the RSPCA's number - it's 500 in cash!)
A beer making machine (why go out to the pub when you can create your own - minus the sticky floors.)
A trip to Barcelona to watch Barcelona play Real Madrid (apparently that's a bee's knees of a football match.)
And 300 of Argos vouchers (there's nothing to say about Argos other than their strange Christmas Wish advert on the TV - why doesn't the Dad just go straight to Argos instead of climbing up to nick a star?)

So if you fancy some of these prizes or some of our current Christmas prizes featured in the festive Xmas4now category you know what to do!

Free cash from Win4now

If you visit Win4now regularly you will know that we give 250 pounds everyday in our Daily Cash Prize. No one has claimed this prize for a while, even though all our members have to do is log-in and see if their name appears on the front page of the site.
We have many people claiming that they've won but unless their name is under one of the beautiful David Bailey worthy portraits of staff members on the site then they're not a winner.
I decided to update the images for the prize as we were beginning to look a little weary. Martyn in design created a lovely cheque but as you can see it just doesn't have the impact of a big wad of notes.
So this is an exclusive picture just for you readers of the blog.
This is my shot where I look more like a teenage boy with bad hair than a 25 year old woman.
Hey-ho, I guess that modelling contract is as likely as someone claiming the Daily Cash Prize.

Spelling Shmelling

Joel Comm, internet marketing machine says that to improve content on your site, you need to improve spelling. Well maybe this is where I'm going wrong.

I met Joel (.) Comm at an internet marketing conference in Las Vegas earlier this year. Yes me and my colleague Helen were sent to Las Vegas for 10 days to learn all we could from the Americans. Joel was a very nice man who I insulted in the lunch queue when he asked if we were from London. There is more than one city in the whole of the UK we said, Joel laughed and wandered off to a table far, far away from us.

Anyway, I think Joel's right spelling is important and if I read something that's spelt wrong it drives me mad - people are paid good money to make sure things are spelled correctly right?
So why can't I spell then?
Why do I have to get everything spelled checked by my computer and then by lovely Joy on reception. Even then every so often I get one of our members pointing out that they would like to 'Refer a friend' and not 'Refer a fiend'.

My argument is that I have a degree in English not spelling.

Pizza and undies

Win4now, the home of life saving prizes... imagine you are housebound this spring due to the mountains of crisp, sparkling snow on the street outside.
Fear not though, all you need is Win4now to save you from starvation and dirty underwear. We're giving away a whole season worth of pizza which equals about 2 large sized pizzas every week for three months and there's no need to wash your smalls as you could also win £250 to spend at Agent Provocateur's online boutique. Although if you're a man you might just use them to mop up all those pizza stains...

Amazing undies
Pizza paradise

The Oldies

No I'm not talking about Rob and Kerry, I'm talking about Radio 2.
Regular readers of the blog will know that in our office we listen to Radio 2 and the best bit of the day is when Steve Wright shuts up and plays the oldies in an afternoon. To maybe get some sneaky advertising for Win4now we've decided to submit our own list of oldies for Steve Wright to play. So far on my list I have 'Here I go Again on My Own' from Whitesnake and that's it, Rob is busily writing a list but the sooner we submit it the sooner Win4now could be broadcasted across the whole of the UK.
If you have any suggestions for our selection of Oldies please add them!
