Not me, but a friend etc
A mate did ring up for one of those inventor packs. I can't remember if the pack ever arrived, but I do remember that he got a phone call from the company asking him for details of his invention.

He curtly told them that of course he hadn't invented anything yet, he was waiting for his pack to arrive.

Same thing happened to me.
I phoned up, and left my name and number.

They phoned back a few days later and I was at school, they asked to speak to me, but my mum said I was out, but she had a good invention. They didn't want to hear it (probably because she is a feeble minded female). Jokes on them though (and my mum), as some company like Boots has a product just like what my mum wanted to make.

I never got to speak to them :( My invention goes unrealised.

I also never got my Inventors Pack.
