I've picked vouchers as people can do what they like with them. Lisa x

Have voted for vouchers however I like the idea of Gimbles, and the monthly book and film choices too!

Have voted for vouchers, but all sound fantastic! x

I too have gone for vouchers, but thinking about it, maybe should have voted for the prize choices. That might be an easier option for admin?

Vouchers would be easier to post to us and cost less.

I voted for BB book choices as we are a book club and might encourage me to read more of the choices but nearly voted for vouchers.

And Mel's point about posting was a good one.

I voted for accessories but I think it would be better to have a mixture of all these things, a different one every month maybe?

I'm not sure I'd like voting for choices two months in advance. Unless I'm misunderstanding??

I was thinking about the book groups that choose books in advance so's everyone has a chance to get a copy in time.

I think a mixture of these things is a good idea. It all depends on what funds we have and don't forget we've been lucky with publishers giving us books to give away as prizes

I went for vouchers but I am happy with the books prizes. Not so keen on accessories as I have tried various things but they often don't live up to their promises.

Went for BB book choices, even though I suggested electronic dictionary, but I reckon that not everyone would want one of these. Vouchers are good also as they would also be cheap to post.

I voted for BB book choices too. Too bad this wasn't a multiple choices poll as I would have also chosen the vouchers and the book accessories

Speaking of the electronic dictionary I always use the Merriam-Webster site to look up words and it's absolutely great. http://www.m-w.com/dictionary in case you're interested

Thanks Kay. Have had a look at this site & saved it in my favourites.
