I was kindly offered a review copy by Vitaly but as I’m in the deepest darkest depths and the post never arrives here I asked him if it would be possible to A. Give it to a Styletime reader and B. Get the SM team to sign it…
So leave a comment below but first RT this post! for a chance to win this fantastic prize!
Competition will close on Friday 21st August.
If you want to be guaranteed a copy and not depend on this competition then you can pre-order your Smashing Book now and save 20% off the regular price!
OK time is up and the Winner is…..Andrew Turner!
What I did this time was just to use the random number generator from random.org instead of putting everyone’s name in a list, I just said OK generate a number between 1 and 189 (total number of comments) and the number came up as 19 so the 19th comment won!
Congrats Andrew I’ll be in touch and work out with Vitaly how we get your prize to you!

Note: Andrew has written a post here on Styletime but that in no way made any difference on the outcome of this random award, it’s pretty hard to rig a random number generator, anyone who complains or makes any accusations then bite me as you are calling me a cheat and a liar and I REALLY don’t like that!

Win a signed copy of The Smashing Book… yes please!

I'd really wish to get hold of this book, I'm on my web-designing career track and this would be quite a wealth of inspiration and information for me. Unfortunately being just a student, I'm kind of low on bucks for now so winning this as a prize would be really beneficial to me
