to wonder why out of the 11 MN competitions this month.....

[DameHermione]

about 8 of them (and the FB mark warner one) are only suitable for families with children under the age of about 12?

AIBU to be a little peeved? not that i sodding ever win or anything anway, but to not even be able to use the prize on the off chance i did win.

humph.

YABU to enter the competition if you couldn't use the prize

Unless you want to donate it to me, who has two very vile under-12's

didn't realise about the mark warner one until i'd been redirected 8 times, saw a nice beach, entered, then realised it was for a family with under 12s.

if when i win i will be donating it to a family in need of respite from their vile children.

Is it because a large proportion of MNers are mothers of small children, by any chance? Or at least, considered to be so by companies that donate things as prizes?

Personally on behalf of all of us who wish to be pregnant and are not, I am Unreasonably enraged that Pregnacare tablets are being given as a prize

Best donation would be if you went and took a couple of under-12s with you.

My vile pair are available!

when i win, can i take it on my own? and leave the dds behind? would i have to take under 12s with me to claim it?

oh and i don't normally enter the ones with unsuitable prizes. i was just unreasonably peeved with the temptation of a lovely beach and a holiday.

I checked the T&Cs and it didn't say anything about UK mumsnetters only, and I thought woohoo, that's the summer holiday sorted. Seeing as Mark Warner only fly from London/Manchester etc.. I'm doomed.
