Do you remember your first win?

I did comping initially when the kids were little and I was home all day, No computer, so trudged round supermarkets buying things and sending off till receipts. My very first win was a beach ball and hubby laughed his socks off went on to win loads as I was quite good at slogans.

I stopped comping when I got back into work, till I discovered you could do it online and not trudge around the supermarkets anymore! Started in January last year and my first win was a sweater and bag from silversurfer, haven't looked back since!!!!

Mine was last year - before I knew about MSE - I entered a competiton i'd come across while on a website and thought i'd enter - even though it closed that day, so I thought I'd have no chance!! But a couple of days later I got an email to say I'd won a book signed by Casey Stoner (the MotoGP champion of 2007)- I was so excited! I since have become addicted to comping!!!

My first every win was in October last year. I won vouchers for Hobbs, £500! Needless to say, I had never even been in Hobbs before as it is way out of my price range. So this was a great win for me.
I'm getting quite emotional thinking about it!

I'll never forget my first win - joined MSE 18 months ago and got a winning letter from Puzzler about 6 weeks later saying I had won an MP4 player - I couldn't stop smiling for days! And it just escalated from there - I enter at least 30 comps a day (sometimes a lot more due to being made redundant) and my best prize were the flights to Hong Kong last year! Good luck to everyone and their future comping!

My first win was in November 08 and it was a mobile phone, followed a week later by a 42" TV, I had only been comping for a 3 or 4 weeks so I was extremely lucky.

I remember my first win well - I started Comping in June and at the begining of July I had a call to tell me I'd won a Gibson Flying V (worth about £700) signed by Mcfly - it was courised to my work 2 days later and it's great! Shame at the moment it's still in it's carry case in the spare room really! I want it to be out on display somewhere but i know it'll just get damaged in my house!
