Survey with chance to win a week in Costa Rica or a hamper and six months supply of coffee

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

Done. Costa Rica here I come.

Spidermama · 11/09/2008 13:41

Is 'I've' considered to be two words or one?

Carnival · 11/09/2008 13:20

I've done it, but it would be a nightmare to organise - maybe it would make them appreciate us a little more!

I bow to the power of the mighty fish.
As I thought the impossible will never happen.
Never mind I can dream.

CostaRicanCod · 11/09/2008 11:30

nice ry flossie
that WONT work when there is fish power to contend wiht

flossie64 · 11/09/2008 11:29

I have entered ,though God knows I never win anything, so if anyone sees a pig flying past their window . You will know the impossible has happened.
The sad thing is I already use Kenco coffee all the time,so they won't even have to persuade me to change to their product.

FabioBigBangBlackHole · 10/09/2008 23:21

Lemme get this straight.

Three strangers, miles away from home and enough caffeine to kill a small horse?
It's hardly fking Pimms o'clock, is it?

I predict one or all of these events:
a) they will kill each other over a sausage roll/P&T parking/bf vs ff/SAHM vs WOHM/pedantry incident
b) they will come home and each kill someone who has Pissed Off one of the other two
c) someone will do a Gareth Hunt shakey wanky hand thing and a deathly silence at th horror of Nestle confusion will be followed by someone being jettisoned from the plane
d) it will be monsoon season in Costa Rica in November and you will need hot coffee to warm you up after your drownings
e) it will be won by three professional compo take parters
f) Costa Rica - been there, done that. For a travelling kitten like me, it is very 2007.
g) I have entered and I really want coffee more than the holiday
h) do NOT tell cod
i) if it's dreadful when you get there, fake the runs then spend the day lounging around the pool whilst the film crew have to recruit 3 burly chambermaids to extoll the virtue of Kenco, which they can only pronounce Kengcow and none of them likes coffee, they prefer tequila.

EisAHandbagaHolic · 10/09/2008 22:55

Monkeytrousers · 10/09/2008 22:40

Lomond · 10/09/2008 16:25
