Cryptically Yours

9 February, 2010 ·

To celebrate the launch of our spring collection, we’re launching an exclusive giveaway for fashion bloggers where the winners will receive 2 of our favorite products of the season; there will be one prize each to the first male and first female bloggers to respond. The catch – you’ll have to figure out what you’re winning yourselves!

Every day for just over 2 weeks, we’ll be releasing a clue to fill in the crossword below. All clues allude to previous posts on Muse & Views.

Ted Baker Blog Competition

The letters in the pink boxes spell out the name of the female prize, the blue boxes that of the male prize. It’s not in order – you’ll have to reorder the letters.)

To win, you’ll need to send your answer to cryptically.yours@googlemail.com The first female and first male to tell us what they won will receive the prize. Please be aware of the full Terms and Conditions below.

Good luck and I hope you enjoy the game! If you have any further queries or comments, please direct them to the googlemail address above.

Aw, girls can only win girl prizes? What if they figure out the boy prize instead?

I was hyped up at first when I read about this competition, only to be disappointed because it’s exclusive to UK residents. :(
By the way, there’s a happy face at the end of clue 7. Some readers might not know it’s a 8 and a parenthesis.

Hi Claire

If you are the first to guess the men’s prize then you can definitely win it! We just wanted to offer a men’s and women’s prize so there was something to interest everyone!

Good luck with the guessing!
