In a bun dance

If I'm going to get something, I usually get it in spades - luck (both kinds), children, clutter, dirty laundry, bright ideas, daft ideas...

Something for the weekend – a Yuu Bag competition

December 10, 2010 By Ellen 15 Comments


I’m offering you, my lucky, lucky blog visitors, the once in a lunch-time chance to win a fantastic new Yuu Bag.

What’s a Yuu Bag I hear you ask? I didn’t know until Boy Two spotted one advertised on TV and began a campaign. It is the very latest thing in schoolbags. Cooler even than the penguins at Edinburgh Zoo.

Basically it’s a backpack with lots of pockets, features and the kind of free stuff kids love. It is semi-rigid so when it’s open it turns into a desk, or activity bag if you will.

“That’s awesome. It means I can do my homework on the bus without my handwriting being really bad,” this is the best bit, apparently.

I think I was so shocked at not being nagged into getting some high-tech game or piece of plastic nonsense that I crumbled and bought one.

Later, I’d had to deal with the girls at Yuu World (where you get Yuu bags, of course) and, as well as offering some of the best customer service I’ve experienced in a very long time, they asked if I’d like to host a Yuu Bag competition.

All you have to do to win a Golden Ticket (aka a voucher for a Yuu Bag – there are so many options it’s easier this way) is leave a comment here and next Friday (December 17) I’ll pull a name out of a hat and send you your Golden Ticket. Simples.

Oh and seeing as how you’re here, it would be really nice if you went and looked at some other posts, so I didn’t think you were just here for the goodies.

    I always read your blog, but only comment for a competition! Think yuu bag sounds fab however not sure it will ever be used for homework. Think this was child's pitch. My child assured me that Brain Training on a Nintendo DS would be great for him. Yes, you guessed right can play DS for hours – never on Brain Training.

    That bag sounds ace. If I won would be bad if I used it for myself instead of the kids?

    That's a great bag, my little girl would love a pink one! You did get a lot of snow your way… we had a dusting here, not enough to roll up a snowmen so have to content ourselves with stroking fake (and strangely furry) snow outside John Lewis

    It looks fab but not sure my DS1 could manage neat handwriting on the bus (or anywhere come to think of it ;-)). Know this is just the sort of thing he'd love though. Fingers & toes crossed…

    Liz, … and dark chocolate is full of anti-oxidants

    Jen, oh I think you'll be fine

    Liveotherwise, of course you can enter, I was only trying to drum up some traffic.

    The Madhouse, perish the thought!

    Hi Christine *waves*

    Misssy M, would you pick a boomerang or a stopwatch for your bag?

    Hi STM and welcome.

    Anonymous (that you Panther?) – it would be a Mee bag, obviously.

    Crafty Creative, that'll be special John Lewis festive snow!

    Mom on a Wire, hi and welcome.

    Dirtgirl 69, good luck and hi.
