I'll bet you'll win something nowWell I have been viewing these super boards for approx 8 month but never posted (sorry a bit rude of me isnt it ) until now and decided to join in the fun , However I have been entering all the comps listed on the site for 6 months and still not won anything.

You should never call somebody else a nerd or geek because everybody (even YOU !!!) is an"anorak" about something whether it's trains, computers, football, shoes or celebs

It shouldn't take long to get a win, even just a little one. Also sometimes it takes months just for the prizes to arrive - you think you've won nothing then...yay!:T0

Hi Mics Chick,
It took me about five weeks to win my first prize, tickets to the Motor Show, which I passed on to my hubby and son. I've since won some Nivea skin care.
I used to enter every comp going but am a bit more selective now and only enter for things that I would want to win, after all why take a prize away from someone else who might really want it. (Always supposing I ever win anything else, that is.)
I'm finding it a bit addictive and so it takes up a lot of time and I'm becoming welded to my computer. It's also really great to read everyone's winning posts.
Hope you have lots of luck !!0 -
I won My First Ballet Album DVD/CD which my daughter loves and that took about 6 weeks and now i'm hooked;)0
