    In terms of value - I won a fridge freezer in Feb.

    In terms of enjoyment I won tickets for 4 people to the ballet Romeo and Juliet with a meal beforehand - I was able to treat 2 friends and it was a great evening - also in Feb. That was a good month!

    In terms of Value: £250 shoetique vouchers. I got some stuff and treated my mum to two pairs of summers shoes and a pair of slippers for my sister. Also a £200 Lego bundle that made one little boy very happy.


    In terms of enjoyment: The Gluten Free food I Won. I very really have GF bread since diagnosis but this year I've won four loaves! Toast, Cheese on toast, toasties, sandwiches and breadcrumbs for chicken-it's been great! I also won GF cakes and treats that tasted lovely.

    I have barely won anything tbh - think i can count on one hand the things that i've won. Having said that, i am rather selective about the comps i enter as i just don't have time these days.

    Best win this year has to be an ipad mini.

    I won a trip to New York in November to attend the world premiere of "Fantastic Beasts and where to find them" - we got loads of merchandise from the movie, got to walk the red carpet and take photos and we were sat 3 rows away from J K Rowling and her family. It was one of my best-ever wins to be fair :)

    This has been my first year of comping after seeing a link to the forum on the MSE newsletter.

    Best win in terms of value was a MacBook Air.

    Best win in term of enjoyment was tickets to a local music festival. Not great value but had a fantastic day out with Mrs Hugo15.
