SPEKE, England, November 18, 2010 - Littlewoods Europe has announced it will be launching a #wordless
Wednesday competition on its blog in the weeks leading up to Christmas. The
competition will run weekly on the Littlewoods Europe blog, and customers can
enter by simply following the blogs and leaving a comment.

Wordless Wednesday (blog.littlewoodseurope.com/wordless-wednesday/)
sees Twitter and blog users posting pictures to their accounts which
require no words as way of an explanation. Wordless Wednesday is similar to
other Twitter themed days such as Travel Tuesday and Follow Friday.

As part of the competition, Littlewoods Europe will be posting pictures
on their blog and asking followers to guess what the picture shows. The
picture displays a small partition of the item which is up for grabs and, to
enter, followers simply have to tell Littlewoods Europe what the picture
shows and why they think they should win. Winners are then selected at
random and announced on the company's blog and Twitter page.

The competition is designed to give followers the chance to win some of
the most wanted items this Christmas season. The use of the blog and Twitter
as a platform for the competition will allow customers from all over Europe
to take part.

A spokesperson for Littlewood Europe said: "We are running a weekly
competition to win a range of great items from our on-line store and decided
it would be more engaging to use #wordless Wednesday as the mechanic to do
this."

There will be several prizes available to the winners, including a
Sekonda steel watch, a leather Hobo bag, a Kodak Mini camcorder, bottles of
Britney Spears' perfume and an advent house, as well as many children's toys

Zhu Zhu Pets, a Lego Duplo fire station, a radio controlled car and a
Vtech Lighting McQueen learning laptop
