This competition was so popular last year that Nestle and CBC are holding it again. The contest, only open to Canadian residents, could win you a trip for two to Manchester for six nights including a tour of Granada Studios' Coronation Street set. There will be three trips to be won and there are two ways to enter.Between October 31 and December 31, 2009, a "secret" word will be displayed on the screen during the Corrie broadcast. Go to the website and enter the word for a chance to win. You can see the full rules there as well, after October 31.
How else can you win? If you have a UPC bar code from a Quality Street product, you can enter that and you'll get 3 bonus entries and if you have both the UPC code *and* the secret word, you get 5 bonus entries. Remember, Canadian residents only and the contest starts tomorrow! Check the website above for full rules.
But *I* want to go on the set (I'm here in the UK). Hmmpfh.
ReplyDeleteLucky people who live in Canada! Why do we never have any competitions like this in the UK?!
ReplyDeleteI've been on the set three or four times myself when it used to be open to members of the public and there's not that much to see.
ReplyDeleteIt's just exactly as it looks on TV only a lot smaller.
To be honest, I'm not sure I could be bothered flying all the way from Canada just to walk down the cobbles!
I've been on the set twice and it's still pretty cool. With this tour, you actually get to go inside the studios to see the indoors sets as well which is really interesting. And it means you can actually stand behind the bar of the Rovers, or in the cafe or Kabin or corner shop for someone to take your piccie!
ReplyDeleteI think it's funny it starts on Oct 31 when Corrie isn't even on Saturdays! Having said that I'll be watching with pen and paper handy!
ReplyDeletewhy even enter the contest, just give it right to the one who stole the contest from CBC from every one else..
