Dates
The giveaway starts today, Friday 13th January 2011, and will finish in two weeks time on Friday 27th January at 11pm (GMT time). So get entering!
Choosing the Winner
Every entry will be given a number. At the end of the giveaway, two numbers will be randomly generated and the two entry numbers that match the two random numbers, will win the two Kindles.
A couple of rules …
Just a few things to mention:
- If the same name is randomly drawn twice, we’ll draw a third number and a different person will receive the second-place prize.
- The winners will be contacted through whatever means was used to enter the competition.
- If however there is no any response within 24 hours, I will redo the draw and somebody else will win, so pay attention and no exceptions!
- This giveaway is open to everyone with a valid postal address in the UK, US and any other country that can be reached by mail at reasonable cost.
- Any “gaming” of the entry system will immediately disqualify you and all your entries, don’t worry, we’ll know.
