This is Nottingham

TODAY'S your last chance to win fantastic prizes from top designers Paul Smith and Vivienne Westwood in our reverse auction in aid of the Post's £500,000 Maggie's appeal to build a cancer caring centre in Nottingham.

In the auction's penultimate week, we have donations which would make a perfect Christmas present for someone special – or why not just treat yourself?

We have a Paul Smith leather brush stripe print long purse (right) worth £219 – and it could be yours for pennies.

This week's other prize is a man's wool knit navy scarf and matching beanie hat with the Vivienne Westwood signature plus a black graffiti ORB card and coin wallet, altogether worth £250 donated by the Vivienne Westwood boutique in FH Mall, Nottingham. As well as three floors of fashion from MAN men's wear, Gold Label, Red Label and Anglomania there is a wide selection of small leather goods, accessories, jewellery and fragrances. For more details visit www.hervia.com.

Here's how to enter. In this auction, it's not how high you bid, it's how low. If yours is the lowest unique bid by the end of the auction, you win. So if lots of people bid a penny, and you are the only person to bid two pence, you win! All it costs you is the price of the text – in this case it's £1 plus your standard network rate – with all the profits going to Maggie's. The winner will also have to pay their bid. If you are bidding for the purse, text EP PURSE to 65100 plus your bid in pounds and pence. So if you text EP PURSE 5 you will have bid £5. If you text EP PURSE 0.50 you will have bid 50p.

For the hat and scarf do the same but start your text EP HAT.

Terms and conditions: Texts cost £1 each plus normal network charges. Open to UK residents aged 18 and over. Please check with bill payer before making a bid. Minimum bid is 1p. Auction runs until 3pm on Monday, December 15. All lots are non-transferable with no cash alternatives. Payment of winning bids to be made to Nottingham Evening Post prior to delivery. The Nottingham Evening Post will not be held responsible for any breakdown in communications systems or networks which might result in a bid not being registered or any bid result/bid update text messages not being received. Usual Evening Post terms and conditions apply.
