Win retro sweets in a Cath Kidston bag

16 October 2011 17 Comments

We had plenty of retro sweets left over after our vintage networking event, courtesy of Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe on Ship Street, so are offering you the chance to win a Cath Kidston cloth bag full of the treats, plus a copy of brand new magazine Vintagexplorer. Perfect to offer the Halloween trick or treaters – or just to enjoy whilst sitting down with your new read.

All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is leave a comment giving us the name of a sweet-themed retro song. The winner will be chosen at random and announced through this post, on our Facebook page and via Twitter on Tuesday 25 October – keep an eye out as we’ll need your address if you win!
