How often do people win in these competitions? You pay a lot, texting and the winners are chosen at random. Just like lottery. It is just chance so there is nothing special about it, or is there?

I have been entering these comps for over a year, paid alot of money out on stamps, texts etc and and to date I've won £200 - but I'll keep going - You never know what's round the corner:rotfl:

I tend not to enter the text ones, just because they'd cost me a fortune, but the postal ones I won two games for my little boy which was nice.

I'm going with the theory that I might have a better chance of a postal one because there may be less people wanting the hassle of mailing them. Probably not true though!!
I always think the internet ones will have TONS of people entering because they're so easy to just hit enter. Doesnt stop me from trying those too
