Great comp thanks eveready.
Here we go again for pass the parcel. It brings back memories.

the pdf doesnt open?

i wouldnt worry about it - it's only a fairly absurd print out finger puppet for you to make :wink:

Today it's a make-it yourself popcorn container on the PDF

yay i just won one of the the telstra prepaid wifi's!

Congrats!

So I'm guessing its one per day?

well i read that they are giving 55 away so yeh i guess its one per day.
how lucky am i!
the thing that sucks is i seriously just installed wireless internet through my home last week so i'm in no real need of one haha

good for when u are away though, wonder if it has an expiry date?? i could really use one today am off to a wedding, and have some free time at the motel to kill on my own as hubby is in the bridal party

It says you have 90 days to use it

I'm annoyed. I thought (didn't read it properly) they were giving away mobile phones. Lol.

Today, I got some popcorn recipes.

Congrats norriscath, It's good to know that someone really does win in competitions like this. I've only managed the daily recipes or print off puppets etcetra. Well done :)

omg thank you for posting this comp. i just scored a prepaid mobile wi.fi  at 4.44am. good luck to others.

4.44am!
you should get a prize just for being up that early..

i have a storm bird that persists on calling for a mate from 10pm to 6am so no sleep at this house.

start entering competitons for a gun hahah

Or a mate for your storm bird. It must be very frusturated.
I'd love a mate but I'm not keen enough to spend my nights calling out.

I just won! It said "you would be notified shortly", does anyone know how they do this?

Yay for you curiost....they would contact you by whatever details you gave, maybe phone or email as registered. Congrats  :D

I only pressed the "connect with facebook" button, I didn't actually enter any details so I hope they find a way to contact me

Got woken up by the cat wanting to go out at 3 am, tried to get back to sleep but decided to do some comping with a glass of milk, well I feel like the cat has got the cream as I just won a prepaid mobile wi.fi on this comp.  Seems you have to be an early riser to get a present from santa. :D

I recieved my wifi in the post this morning :)

do you just keep going back to pass the pressie to enter?

nah i haven't been back since, i figured there are only 55 to win, and i already won one.

btw, if anyone wants to buy it off me i'm selling it. I do no need one at all.

are you allowed to win more than one? I had a quick skin of the t&cs and couldn't find anything.

im sure you can, im just not greedy!
I don't need the one i already have!

I won a wireless wifi last night :)  Good timing too - was just looking at what my options were ...

Congrats DinkumAussie, as a matter of interest, what time did you win it? the other two ACC members who won them won at around 4 in the morning. Just wondering

I won mine around 8pm

Thanks curiost, forgot you had won as well, there goes the theory about winning only in the early morning :) congratulations on your win too

I won mine about 8.30 in the evening.  I'm usually in bed well and truly before 4.00am!  :)

Does anyone one know how to make the screen larger (to get rid of the toolbars etc) Im on a small laptop and when i open up the page to enter this comp i cant do anything because the bottom halfof the page is missing. I remember someone once said to push ctrl and F10 or something like that?? (that obviously doesnt work!!)
Your hlep would be great.
Lisa

I think brymad enlightened us all with the last ski (yoghurt) comp - but I can't remember which function key she said!

tools then full screen or f11

Thaks guys for your help. I tried the tools option but it didnt work. But F11 did. Thanks.....and here i was pushing ctr, altl f10 or f11

Is anyone else having technical problems with this competition? It keeps going to Day 15 everyday for me. I advance to say (like today) Day 21 and it immediately reverts to Day 15. I have emailed them about it but haven't heard back as yet. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same. I also tried deleting cookies etc to see if it made a difference and it didn't.
Would appreciate it if someone can help please. Thanks :)

Have you tried switching browsers?

Also - try doing a hrd refresh on the page. Have it open and hold down CTRL and press F5.

Thanks for the advice Doglet, will try those ideas when I try tommorrow :)

has anyone won lately on this one?

norriscath, how did they contact you?

I waited a few days, then wrote them an email through the telstra 'contact us' part of their website. And the next day i got an email from them. But i'm not sure if its because of the email i wrote, or they simply just take a while to get in contact with the competition winners??

thanks! will wait a few days. i didn't have to enter my details anywhere so i wasn't sure how they'd email me. unless it's through fb.

they'll email you through facebook with a couple of days

I won this last week

I've been doing this at 5am thinking it will improve my chances! No luck thus far..

I won about 2.15 pm, it's just sheer luck.  I nearly fell off the chair when Merry Christmas came up instead of the usual Sorry.

I just won about 15 minutes ago! So that's about 4:45pm Adelaide time WOO!
I didnt do it through Facebook, just used the normal entry form. :)

I won last week about 6 in the morning (7.30am AEST)

I can't get mine to work  :(  I've just been away for the weekend hoping to use it, I had it activated Saturday afternoon, I can connect to the correct wireless network on my laptop, but I don't have a "Network" light on the device, and can't connect to the Internet. Damn.

I called Telstra, fun, fun, fun. They keep saying they have activated it. I guess I'm off to the Telstra Shop tomorrow with my laptop and the device. Annoying.  :roll:

Well ....... problem solved.

The device comes with the SIM card installed, but when they install the SIM card the wrong way round, it won't damn well work. Not even the Help Desk can offer that advice. Grrrrrrrrrr.

I got hubby to take it apart this morning (something I was reluctant to do, cos I thought they would tell me I had broken it). The SIM looked to be in ok, but he turned it around 90 degrees, replaced it and bingo! It works. How annoying ........

Anybody having trouble entering this morning? Mine wont submit..

me neither

I just entered. No problems....

Problems here too  :?

Problems here as well :(

have we had many wins on this one?

I won on the 12 December and they still havent contacted me. I can't find the contact us bit on the website at all. Can anyone provide me with the email they used to contact them please? :)

This is it:

Diane.Chua@team.telstra.com

 :)

Thanks heaps for that deejay :)

 :D  My son scored the wi fi today.

they took 2 weeks to message me, so don't worry.

Message on Facebook:

Hi All,

We are currently in the process of contacting those who won prizes within the 55 days of Christmas. If you are one of these people and haven't heard from Telstra can you please send me a private message so we can arrange your prize!

Thanks,
...
Carly :)

I havent been able to enter this for couple days now, just keeps taking me to day 49

wundergurl at the bottom of the calendar scroll back to page 1 and you can then enter

Bry that doesn't work for me, ive been having the same problem and doing that still takes me to day 49. I gave up, didn't feel lucky with this one anyway.

I have also given up on this competition, it has been going to the wrong day for weeks. I tried using a different browser and it still kept going to the wrong day. I tried your suggestion brymad and it didn't work either.

LOL On my facebook where I liked the page I note that the Telstra folk have posted a message and asked people who won to contact THEM - so obv they have no idea who has won either !

Perhaps we should all reply that we won !
