Hi all

Well the latest survey prize is a bit different - but you can't say we don't offer variety

Kenco are giving three mumsnetters the chance to win a trip to Costa Rica staying for a week in luxury Eco-lodges. The new coffees they are launching (Rich Roast, Smooth Roast and Decaffeinated) are now made with beans sourced from Rainforest Alliance Certified? farms and the winners will visit these coffee growing communities and learn more about how the programme benefits people and the environment. They'd also be asked to report back on the experience.

It's strictly for mums only (ie no partners or children allowed ) and there's a set week for travel - w/c Nov 9th - but they are offering financial help with childcare and you would be travelling with two other mumsnetters.

If this doesn't appeal there are also 10 luxury coffee hampers and six months supply of Kenco coffee so do please still fill in the survey.

For a chance to win the trip or the coffee hamper you have to be a UK mum, over 21 and a coffee drinker.

here's the survey

Good luck

onlyjoking9329 · 12/09/2008 00:01

i think all we have established is that the hamper is mine

BoysAreLikeDogs · 11/09/2008 22:33

Have we established yet whether you have to enter the comp AND post 'done' or 'entered' or summat on the relevant thread in order to enter the relevant comp ?

Done, btw.

onlyjoking9329 · 11/09/2008 22:26

you can have the holiday but the hamper belongs to me

Will the trio of mumsnetters be able to log onto mumsnet in their eco lodge, so everyone else can see how well they are bonding together (or not).

I fear I may have blown my chances by being selected for a different MN jolly

DisasterAreaIsOffToCostaRica · 11/09/2008 18:20

yes but being fat and ugly and very unphotogenic they won't want to use any film of me anyway.

singingtree · 11/09/2008 18:09

I was quite up for this until I saw that it involves filming - you must be joking mister

pococonejo · 11/09/2008 18:05

I have already gone spanish for it

DisasterAreaIsOffToCostaRica · 11/09/2008 17:46

BecauseImWorthIt · 11/09/2008 17:39

Take me - it's a lot easier - I don't need childcare!

OK Ann, I've changed it in my diary.

filthymindedvixen · 11/09/2008 16:14

AnnMumsnet · 11/09/2008 16:13

NickiSue · 11/09/2008 15:12

Im more exciting by the coffee price! "Pick me, pick me!" - If I win Costa Rica I'll swap for the coffee lol!

Blu · 11/09/2008 15:02

WaaaaaaaaaaHHHHHH!

I would LOVE to go on that trip, and I would be the Perfect Candidate, slurping the coffee, tramping through the plantations, wearing comedy safari shorts, taking the aid and education bit Very Seriously, Running my fingers sensuously thorugh the sacks of beans like the woman in the old ad, shagging the....oops, no, no, not on camera, anyway.

But I have a feeling that were I to start a thread 'AIBU to think that I can swan off to Costa Rica while DS is in the middle of gruelling bone surgery?' I would end up as high roasted as an espresso bean.

So - you are all spared the competition - and it's stay put at CostaCoffee for me! Grrrrrr!
