Title: I know this is going to sound ungrateful but... Post by: Indiana on Sunday 22 April 2012, 07:43:46 pm Ok, so we all know sometimes we win things and they're not what you expected.This is one of those moments. I also know that seeing as we are not paying for it, we don't really have a right to complain but having said that, I'm still going to! :)
Recently, I won a "Winter Wardrobe" for my daughter, which I was so, so excited about. The comp itself was fairly vague and didn't really say what was included and I can't remember what the prize value was or anything. Actually I can't even find the comp or terms and conditions anymore to check. However, I just received an email from the site that my prize was being shipped. Woohoo! I was super excited. Until I read what was included... A jacket, a dress and a skirt. To me this is for one, not especially "wintery" and two, hardly a wardrobe. Maybe I'm being greedy but I must say, I did expect a bit more than three items for a "wardrobe". Am I being silly or do you guys think that it would be fair to call it a "Winter Wardrobe"? Just want some perspective, please guys. Also, I must mention that the site have been very good to deal with as they took a long time to get it together as they were having trouble finding my daughter's size for the items, so they credited my account with $15 out of goodwill, so not all bad. :) Title: Re: I know this is going to sound ungrateful but...

Review stated terms and conditions, and if the prize value does not match with what is being provided, advise the promoter directly. Title: Re: I know this is going to sound ungrateful but... Post by: sylph on Sunday 22 April 2012, 08:00:31 pm I guess it's all in the perspective of it. I found a past comp to win a 'winter wardrobe' that consisted of "pair of boots, a pair of flats, a pair of heels and a bag", and another that was for a $400 'winter wardrobe' - for some people, that's a jumper. What constitutes a 'winter wardrobe' is defined by the individual, that's my reasoning. What was the total prize value?

Post by: Indiana on Sunday 22 April 2012, 08:21:43 pm Unfortunately, I can't find the comp anywhere and it doesn't come up in any searches on here so I guess I'll never know about the prize value. :( I guess a win is a win and I should be grateful, regardless. :)
