Competition – Win Trunki goodies worth over £85!

I’ve always been a fan of Trunki.

I saw them first on Dragons’ Den of course, but then worked for a few years in the nursery industry and got to know the team pretty well. I’ve whizzed down the slide in their offices, and enjoyed the odd glass of wine, (*coughs*), with them at international trade shows. They’re good guys.

I’m really pleased then to have a lovely giveaway from them today, to celebrate their new project with Gatwick Parking. It’s the perfect partnership because let’s be honest, have you been to an airport in the last few years and not seen a Trunki? I haven’t.

In collaboration with Gatwick Parking, Trunki have put together a promotion to try and get over that horrible back to school feeling – you know the one where you’re made to spend £45 on school shoes that your ungrateful child will have grown out of in three months? The idea is to share you holiday snaps for a chance to win Trunki goodies, thus reliving those happy times and generally feeling less sulky as a result.

You can find out more about that competition here.

I have my very own competition though, so if all of your summer holiday photos are of you sobbing into a glass of gin then you still have the chance to win a rather fabulous bundle of Trunki goodies, (in blue or pink), plus a pair of funky JVC kids’ headphones, worth over £85 altogether.

Hoorah!

Trunki competition

 

If you’d like the chance to win this glorious bundle of Trunki funtimes, just do your thang in the Rafflecopter widget below. The competition will close at 5pm on September 10th. Good luck!

    I have gone to the park greeting and meeting many on my way,
    I saw the flowers that have bloomed from the flower bud
    And have sprung into life,
    I saw the once covered icy streams that have come back to life
    And I saw many birds that caught my eye
    As they spread their wings and flyed by
    And I saw owners pulled by dogs in a line,
    Their barking midst the passing of time.
