Daytime TV competitions

[AhDad]

How do they pick a winner? Does every winner have to go on TV to tell the world how much they won like you see all the time 😞?

I enter them (because I’m bloody desperate at this point 😅) but obviously haven’t won a sausage and I dont know a single soul that has either (not even a friend of a friend of a friend..)

They show the phone cals of telling people they’ve won and all I can say is; if I won, it wouldn’t be allowed to be tellivised with my response 😅 how do people keep it together?!

How do they pick one winner when you can enter by text, email or post ?

All the entires get entered into 1 database and picked from there from random

I only ever enter them when they do the free on-line entries (used to be the normal but they don't eem to do it any more!) Ithink they mucst be terrible odds.

Like on Absolure radio it's £2 per entry and they give away about £80,000 so they must expect well over 40000 entrants to make it profitable. you'd probably get better odds doing stupid long shot bets at the bookies!

Yes I think you’d have better odds buying a lottery ticket and you’d have the chance of a huge prize.

Doesn’t seem worth it does it? I wonder what the odds actually are.

Then again, I don’t know a lottery winner either!

Its that Josie Gibson and Gok Wan.. they’re too bloody persuasive! 😅
