Fancy winning an HTC One Mini (worth £365) courtesy of EE? Find the hidden phones around the site and uncover the word to be in with a chance. NOW CLOSED

MN and EE are delighted to be able to give one clue-hunting'n'solving MNer the chance to win an HTC One Mini - read on for more info...

EE have launched their Shared 4GEE Plans which allows users to share their data allowance across multiple devices (phones, laptops, tablets), all on just one contract. To celebrate, we've created the virtual Mumsnet Shared 4GEE plan and we'd like to add 5 phones to the plan.

Unfortunately we've lost our phones (doh) and now need your help to find the HTC devices that are hidden around various talk boards on MN. Each day this week (16th-20th Dec) a new phone will join the sharing plan by appearing on a different Talk board and we'll post a new clue every morning to help you find them.

Here's how it works
Each HTC phone is hidden on a specific (and different) MN Talk board (you can find a list of all the different Talk boards here (there's quite a few!)). Once you've figured out the clue, head over to the Talk board where you should find an HTC phone. Once you've found the phone, make a note of the first letter of the Talk topic. For example, if the topic is Telly Addicts, then the letter you're after is 'T'

Once you have all five letters you need to solve the anagram by unscrambling the letters to make a word. Then just submit the word on the competition page here and you'll be entered into a prize draw where one lucky MNer will win an HTC One Mini worth £365.

Competition closes 31 December

As ever, you're more than welcome to help each other out, however, please don't post the answer on this thread - we're all about sharing, but lets not spoil the fun Wink

Here are the clues:

Day 1 Have you read a good book recently that you just have to share with other MNers?

Day 2 DCs keeping you up all night? Find advice here so you can get some shut eye.

Day 3 Where to go to share your thoughts about last week's The Archers.

Day 4 The 30 day Shred, C25K or 6 week 6 pack? There's only one place to share tips and advise to get you through.

Day 5 Reckon you could share your home with a stranger? when you're not even there?

Here's the link to the competition form: here

Thanks and good luck!

That's only one clue, are there other clues? I have very little to do today apart from waiting in for a delivery so this could amuse me.

There will be a clue a day, LostInWales.

And I might, delicately, suggest HQ proofread that post again. Before the pedants do...

Oh I forgot to ask, if you win, do you have to use EE with the phone?

I wasted far too much time on the Cadburys Pebble comp and couldn't make a word at the end! I did ask on the thread at the end of the comp and on the competition board what the word was but nobody replied! I know it was an age ago but put me out my misery! It really bugged me at the time Smile

KatieBMumsnet · 16/12/2013 15:34

LEMoncehadacatcalledSANTA - that's correct, the letter you need would be 'A'.

We'll add the clues into the OP everyday and also post on the thread to let you know they've been added.

I don't remember for sure Salty but I think the word was Cadbury.

Thanks TEE, I was nowhere close to finding a word and I'm not really sure how I went so wrong as I'm sure I saw the pebbles!

Or was it pebbles?
Something like that - you knew when you got it right!

Do the phones only show up on the desktop site?

Has today's clue been posted somewhere else - or am I missing something?

Whoops sorry, just looked at my post and the emoticon looks a bit odd and not how I intended Blush. I meant Sad

But can't seem to make a word...
