    I tend to do about 5-6 pages off here evey day , but only things i would like or could give to friends.
    Funny about that problem doing big snap - i did it quite a few hours one night and woke up with a really bad head and felt unwell for 2 days after -headache and feeling sick.
    Been out all day yesterday and been busy today and not done it only 3-4 times and i feel ok !???
    Only do it a few times now -dont want to feel bad again and i am sure thats what did it!
  • I tend to only enter for what I actually want or can definitely use. Usually the comps I go for are for kids things, household things and money. There are some fabulous holiday comps but we are a family of 6 so very few of them would be suitable for us.
    Thanks to everyone who posts comps, I love winning prizes big and small

    I probably only enter 10 or so a day, so prob why I don't get as many wins. I get excited even by little wins as well! I love going home at lunch to see if the postie's left any freebies or wins :)
    January - Nintendo Wii, 2 x Lush bath bombs :j
    Feb - Pink Floyd CD
  • I have been entering competitions for roughly three months now and apart from a £25 Arcadia Giftcard, I have won a dodgy day at the races and a night in a Manchester nightclub (which I couldn't even give away).
    I still hope that one day I will win something really exciting, one thing in three months should mean I'm due something good, I just hope it's not another one of the dodgy racing ones.:D

    I won an ipod earlier this month so I'm not going to grumble but the postie must be wondering why he keeps getting dirty looks everyday :eek: as my wins seem to have dried up a bit in the last 2 weeks :rolleyes:

    This must be some sort of lucky thread because it worked! :eek:

    I heard today that I'd won some PSP games - Thanks to rock chick bird for posting about it. :j

    Good luck to everyone else that's having a dry spell and just to keep you going, the comp I found out that i'd won today had an end date of middle of September.
  • Perhaps if I make a statement such as "oh dear, I haven't had a win since Saturday" the postie will bring me loads of goodies tommorow? Maybe? Perhaps?
