   | Rapid Online's World Cup Competition - CluesHey all, I doubt that many of you use Rapid, but they've launched a World Cup competition, whereby they've hidden country flags on certain product pages. There's some clues to help you find the flags, and I'm not very good at stuff like this! The clues are: Quote:

PS. You have PM EDIT: Damn they've actually overwritten the original image with the flag, so I can't automate it. EDIT2: I've found three now I know what I'm looking for Last edited by chigley; 11-06-10 at 11:22 AM.. | |

| Just need three more... 4, 5, and 7 For 4 I've identified the clue to be Bosch. Except I've been through all items which come up when I search Bosch and can't find any with the flag on! For 7 I tried goggles (and even found some called Pacific Goggles, which sounds too correct to be true) but also unable to find anything. No idea re. 5. Any help appreciated! |

The flags are easy enough to find if you look for them. Submitted my entry hours ago What I'm peeved at is that the site didn't make it clear that it's a draw, from which one winner is chosen per week. Originally the site simply said "get all 8 and win £50", which has now been amended (after I complained over email.)Chances are I could make a claim via some legal channel to win the £50, given that I met the criteria on the site, but I can't be bothered  | |
