How it works
There are two ways to get your hands on a raffle ticket.
Method 1) Purchase a qualifying item
Every crochet kit, printed pattern or other qualifying purchase (see list below) made between 00:00 on 1st August and 23:59 on 31st August (UK time) will include a raffle ticket, giving you free entry into the draw.
This includes purchases on Etsy as well as my website. You will automatically receive the ticket, you don’t need to do anything!
If you buy two or more kits/patterns in the same transaction, each one will include a raffle ticket.
If you are buying a kit or pattern as a gift, the recipient will receive the raffle ticket, rather than yourself, as it will be included in the kit/pattern.
Full list of qualifying products:
- Printed Crochet Patterns
- Crochet Kits (including ‘Seconds’ Kits)
- Crochet Starter Kit
- Build-Your-Own Crochet Kit
- ‘A Little Course in Crochet’
- Crochet Hooks
- Mini Skeins
- Crochet Gift Set
- Knitting Gift Set
- Personalised Notepads
Purchases can be made in the Little Conkers Etsy Shop (not all the above products are available on Etsy) or here on this website.
Method 2) Review a past purchase on this website
Tickets are also available to any verified customers leaving a review of their purchase here on the Little Conkers website. This applies to all reviews left during August, on any product in my shop, not just those listed above. It does not have to be a purchase made this month. If you leave multiple reviews (on different products), you will receive one raffle entry for each.
Etsy reviews do not qualify for raffle tickets in this draw.
If you leave a review I will send you your free raffle ticket by e-mail.
The Raffle Draw
The winning raffle tickets will be drawn using a random number generator on 1st September at 1:30pm UK time. Each ticket will have the same chance of winning. Winners will be announced first on the Little Conkers Facebook page.
Please follow my Facebook page and comment on my posts to ensure I keep appearing in your feed!
I will contact winners by e-mail, you don’t have to do anything. I will use the contact details provided at the time of purchase. If a winner received their raffle ticket as part of a gift that they didn’t purchase, I will attempt to contact them via the purchaser.
If I am unable to contact a winner, after 10 days I will make another draw from the remaining numbers to establish another winner.
