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

NappiesGalore · 09/09/2008 17:17

omg - i SO want to go to costa rica...

Fennel · 09/09/2008 17:03

I would love a trip to costa rica with strangers, it's the sort of thing I spent my life doing before children, but I don't think they'd love having me on it. I'd be all cynical about big corporations interest in fair trade and whether it was all just a gimmick.

bythepowerofgreyskull · 09/09/2008 17:01

done - wish I had had the courage to say yes to the trip.. I just know that I wouldn't have the balls

psychomum5 · 09/09/2008 17:01

does it help that DH and the kiddies think I am???

oh, and cod once said I looked 'very european'

and cocolepew is french is he not, so therefore I can pass for that maybe.

cocolepew · 09/09/2008 16:59

NO! Not if you aren't beautiful. Dim is ok.

psychomum5 · 09/09/2008 16:56

nope, sorry, you are not pretending to be me unless I can also go and pretend to be you.

cocolepew · 09/09/2008 16:50

I'd be on my best behaviour
