Wasn't sure where to put this, but to mumsnet - thank you. I won £300 of John Lewis vouchers in the autumn and it made such a huge difference to us. The children got Christmas presents they wanted, I am entering the NY without any christmas debt (just the new washing machine debt, darn thing) and I even managed a pair of fully lined full length curtains for the patio doors (spate of burglarlies round here so this is a huge thing) and a new hat out of it for me
£300 made a huge huge difference to our family, so thank you mumsnet for all your competitions and sponsored threads.
