- don't let this happen to you

Found out tonight that I won a 3M water filter - but - I found this out by going through my emails FINALLY after they built up - so this email had come in November - and I had to reply back by 28th November with address and choice of filter for them to send it - they had even emailed me back on the 2nd Dec to give me another 24 hours to get my details in - damn me not being organised *cries*

So lesson to be learned...Always check your emails within a couple of days!!!! - I must remember this!!!!

haha - having said this though - I am glad it was a water filter, very cool and quite expensive, but not as cool and expensive as $5,000 worth of vouchers, a car, a BBQ, or something that I really would have kicked myself for :eeK:

aww that sucks Jo, you just checked your emails now from nov?! yikes! you must have so many emails!!!!
i can't go too long without checking my emails, when i don't check it for like a day there will be about 50 emails...
although i did let it get away from me for a while around christmas, i won a fresh ink pack from the weddings website, emailed them within the week, they didn't specifiy a timeframe...still haven't received the prize...i suppose i should email them and ask...

Thousands - they just get on top of me - all the newsletters and everything - I am going to start making sure I clear everything at least once a week fromnow on

ooh - you should - maybe they aren't back yet I suppose? Congrats on that win

Whoa... I cant go a day without checking my inbox. *Checks Email*

I seriously can't go more than 1 or 2 days without checking or else I will end up deleting something that is important.

Thats a bugger jo

For the trip I won ... they let me know by e-mail .... I don't even know if they had any other details ... I had to let them know my home address. Some comps only ask for your e-mail and/or phone ... I check my e-mail at least twice a day....

gosh I work from home, do trade me and get all the comp newsletters and get heaps and never would miss a email from months aho lol...benefits of having a computer on all day I think

i check my e-mail at least 10 times a day. even tho i never really get anything important.

- 10 times a day is alot

Yeah bummer when I used to work at an office I used to as well I guess - constantly (and I used to enter competitions (in my breaks of course (not )))
