Have you got the January blues? 
  
Also known as the “I over spent in December, my jeans no longer fit, pay day is a million miles away, it feels like I’ve never been off work, cold and grey and grumpy” blues. 
  
Apparently the most depressing day of the year, affectionately known as ‘Blue Monday’, is the Monday of the last full week of January – so it’s not going to get better any time soon! Hopefully the postman is keeping your spirits up by delivering you some lovely prizes.

To banish the blues, today’s top prize is a trip to Las Vegas, courtesy of a cheery radio show by Blues Brother himself Dan Akroyd. You can also enjoy a holiday closer to home with a gallery break to London, keep up the healthy eating with a Chinese cookery kit or just succumb to the chilly dark nights with a really good DVD boxset. 
  
Good luck! 
  
Win an all-star Las Vegas getaway 
  
You could win five nights at the spectacular Wynn Las Vegas, soaking up the sights and sounds of the infamous Las Vegas Strip – the perfect anecdote to the winter blues. The prize is for two, and also includes flights from Heathrow.
