Mine came today too, must send them out in batches.
Shame my gore tex is still newish....
guess i have to wait longer than, just "won" it yesterday night. Mine 2 parka's are ancient and definatly can use some.
I got mine on Thursday, in a "Mondo" box through a company called "Merz AG"...strange :-D. They said it should be here in 28 days, it took less than a week :-)
The bottles are small ones though, about half the size of the usual ones. It's 150ml.
Thanks for the link SquirrelBoy!
Now let's just wait patiently for the Cotton Proof offer :-D
P.S: it's nice to find a competition open to other countries for once!
maybe it is send by the distrubiter from the particular country...
Just had a look at the Merz AG site (www.merznet.ch) it seems they're the swiss importer for Nikwax, Merrel and Magnum, but then Mondo is a completely differant mail order company. Maybe it was just a box lying around (could be possible since it's a 25cm square box, it's a bit big for just one little bottle).
I thought there was a Nikwax branch in Switzerland.
i got mine nikwax yesterday, from the dutch importer. The bottle actually says "gratis monster", (= free sample), but what the heck.
i noticed that the dutch quiz says: "echter we sturen u maar 1 prijs per gezin per maand." that means that they will only sent one prize to a family a month, not 3 months like of the english quiz... :yumyum:
hopefully that isn't a transalation mistake...
"Gratis monster" ... scary!
haha,
i just re-read a email they sent me and that one does say only one every 3 months...

Thats cool, one down dozens to go. a couple of years and i should be able to treat all my gear :lol:
It's quite a good deal really - not enough for me never to need to buy any more Nikwax but saves me a few quid a year!

Excellent tip, just got myself a free bottle ;)
just thought I'd bump this as they are giving a free sample of the cleaning stuff at the moment.
This is I think one of the few free promotions that has lead me to carrying on buying the goods once the free sample is used up
Yahoo, thanks for the link SquirrelBoy, I just sent off my answers and hope to get some cleaner soon. I already use Nikwax stuff and really like it, and this is a nice bonus!

My gel packet was punctured...picture me reading a wet jiffy bag with the nikwax slogan: "Stay safe! Stay dry!" and try not to laugh at the irony of it...i guess they wanted a clean parcel to reach me. The sample was pretty small anyhow...can't wait for the next promotion!

Just goes to show that there's no such thing as a free sample! Ask tham to send you something to clean the jiffy bag.
