    My best win for this year was the Red letter days Gold experience voucher that I won from the Samsung Comp that finished at the end of March. It was worth £1000 and after looking at all the different trips on their site a friend showed me something I hadn't seen on there which made my mind up...........................I got a 40" Sony Bravia 1080p TV and OH was and still is very happy about that one too!

    For next year, I'd really like to win a break away somewhere for us, not abroad and I'm not bothered if it's only a long weekend but a couple of nights away would be good :D

    Good luck to everyone for 2009 and I cant thank all the posters enough for the year I've had (I started comping at the end of last year). I hope everyone has a good Christmas and a very Merry new year :D

    2008 Best wins - Holiday to Beijing and tour of Great Wall of China, we haven't been yet. But close to that was £1800 on the first Snap comp..enabled us to go back to New York...my fave place in the world.

    2009 - Any money win really, flat is in negative equity and we are sooooo desperate to move.

    Thanks to all you lovely people that post the comps and good luck for 2009 everyone! :T

    My only win of 2008 has been a Divine choccy advent calendar. :j
    I haven't been comping long and it was from one of the first I'd entered. None since though.
    Looking forward to the future.

    Best Prize:- A trip with the Chelsea Squad to Istanbul to watch the champions league quarter final. It was the best prize for me out of several biggies because I know it was money cant buy, and despite staying in some special hotels in the past I will probably never again stay in a room worth £800 a night or drink red wine at £50 a glass!

    And I hate you sooooooooooooooooo much. :D:D

    Some great wins on here!
    Best win:I haven't been comping long but my best so far was £500 vouchers from Hobbs.
    Next year I would love to win a holiday for me and my daughter, or I'd love a job, graduated 8 months and still no luck. Do you think I could win one? I wish!
  • best was guest list tickets for Leeds festival this year. Would never have been able to afford to go, and seeing rage against the machine put the icing on the cake for me! (as well as only having a 3 minute walk from main stage to tent....lovely!!!)

    Would win to love a ps3 or xbox for my boyfriend next year cos he's supported me so much in the last year, even though i've been utterly useless.
    Although first comp i want to win is "Best smile" at pets at home in january....the pup, not me.....go on Presty!
