Last chance to vote for your top sniffle-quashing tip and win £500 Center Parcs vouchers

176 replies

A while ago we asked you for your top tips on surviving/avoiding colds. You may have read the tips here or in a MN email.

If you post the name of the Mumsnetter you reckon has come up with the best tip on this thread, then, thanks to Kleenex Anti-Viral Tissues, you'll be in with the chance of winning £500 of Center Parcs vouchers.

If you've already voted on this thread, don't worry, your name is in the hat.

Some Mumsnetters have more than one tip on the list, so if you're voting for one of them, please specify which tip you're voting for.

Hope you're all clear (and we're not talking nasal passages).

The absolutely final (honest) closing date is midnight Wed 4 March.

Plantsitter - I need that kind of help for DH who suffers dreadfully from man flu...

My vote goes to Rosa for lots of sensible advice.

The one about slamming the door behind you and ignoring all hammerings. I have no bedside manner at all and I like this one!

Plantsitter gets my vote. Love that idea of freaking them out. Brilliant.

Mumfie68 · 27/02/2009 11:37

Plantsitter for me too - utterly hilarious, must try it!

my vote goes to Habbibu - Stay at home. I'd rather one person was off work briefly than seven people sneezing and groaning all round me because of the extra infection. Work at home, I say!
