Free Nikwax stuff
« on: August 18, 2010 »
For those who don't know about it, or those who haven't been there in a while, Nikwax have a free competition running. You answer 10 questions about their products and if you get them all correct, they send you free samples of their stuff. The questions are pretty easy and they even provide you with clues to the answers if you are not sure.
http://www.nikwax.com/en-gb/index.php

At the top right of the web page, it says "Play free web quiz........." click on that and then answer the questions. There are no catches or anything with this. I haven't recieved one marketing email from them in the few years I've been entering this.

Yeap... Mine arrived yesterday too.  I got the Sponge on Fabric Proofing stuff.  Not a big bottle, but it's free so I'm not gonna complain.

I'll be able to waterproof my Camo Bush Hat  ;D

Think you can use that stuff on fabric walking boots?  I'm still waiting on my free stuff arriving in the post, but I only got round to entering recently.  Embarrassingly I got a question wrong and had to do the quiz twice... d'oh :-[

That makes me feel a bit better :D  There were some bizzare questions on there... like what countries border Paraguay?  The clue was a link to some website on Paraguay but I couldn't find the answer and had to employ Wikipedia!

Top idea... and if you get three other e-mail addresses to say that you recommended them to do the quiz then you can re-enter as well.  I wonder if its only one per household though?  Guess my grandparents could do with some Tech Wash ;)

did you notice that when you started typing the more obscure questions into google it started to predict the whole thing after a few words! There must be loads of people doing this!
