Just wondered whether anyone had won more than once from the same site or page....?:D

    I would just love to win ONCE - I've been comping now since December every day and still won nothing! :(

    Won twice within a couple of weeks from Planet Rock last year. Spoke to the same DJ both times. The second time he asked if I won quite a bit or was I unlucky. Came clean and told him I only spoke to him 2-3 weeks ago when I won another competition with them. He was quite surprised and proceeded to explain to the rest of the listeners that competition winners were randomly selected etc ha ha!

    Yes, I have won 3 times with Spoonflower, twice with Five Valley cordials and many times with DoCrafts - those are the ones that I can think of off the top of my head :)

    I've had four wins from Real People magazine, three from Doctor Who magazine, and several from Empire magazine and Teletext (When it existed.) when both of them ran regular comps. I won one competition on Teletext's travel page three times in six or seven months.

    I remember a local paper running a competition some years back, and it was won about ten times by the same person (Unfortunately not me!) in the four or so months that they ran it.

    EDIT: I've just received my second prize in a week from the Radio Times, which reminded me that a couple of fellow MSErs have had multiple wins from the same magazine.

    I won two decent prizes, two months running via Quizonaut.
    1x Nespresso Pod Holder (first ever time entering via site)
    1x Webcam
    Both worth around £25.

    Hopefully more to win from different sites or happy to win again :D

    Out of most things I enter 96% of them are Facebook wins.
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.

    Yes many times, mostly for the C2W or mag daily sites. But I did once win twice with the Co-Op, I won a food hamper which was delivered in person by someone from the Co-Op. Less than an hour after he left I got another WEM from the Co-Op to say I had won again, about an hour later he was back with another hamper. He left with a comment that I should go buy a lottery ticket :rotfl:
  • I won twice a few years back with New magazine - a £1000 winter wonderland package (huge bbq and patio heater and marquee and lights) and also a butler in the buff party in my own home - both from New mag and comps that closed around same time!

    I also used to win regular with Winning Moments - they had a comp monthly with a really big prize and weekly smaller prizes through text entry.. i started to wonder if i was the only person entering the weekly one as i won their weekly prize every week more or less! It became a stand in joke with the woman who rang to inform me... she knew my address off by heart in the end! :rotfl:

    won more than once with a few companies... can think of them off top of my head but it definately can be done! :D
