tried to register and all I get is 'incorrect date of birth'
have now tried 5 times so I officially give up.
Not sure how they even know what my date of birth is but I am entering the right one.
Oh well didnt want to play anyway:rolleyes:

I have also tried to enter and keep getting the same message. I know my date of birth, I have tried entering it in different combinations too, just in case.:confused:

spot on Graeme, I shall now register to play
Now I just need to find out which caches are included. When I click option 2 'Select Find & Log' it goes straight to the same window as clicking number 4 does.
Just realised that it counts any finds you have from the start date so I am covered for the three. Will have to pop in to Truro on Monday to get a code.

If you can't make it to a participating retail store you can enter the contest by watching a short video at one of our online retailers or by finding the code on the product pages:

And links to three online stores. But I DNF any competition code - anyone do better?

If you haven't been on the groundspeak forum then you may not know, but
If you go to the participating stores tag
Select fitness footwear (second one down in the stores list)
Click on any Merrell shoe listing and the code is at the bottom
"simples"
Did it and it seems to work !
