hi just i am thinking about doing the postal comps but does it not cost a fortune in stamps to enter these comps?

I do some of the postal comps. My logic is that there will be less people entering these ones. I would bother paying for a stamp though if there was no internet entry route available.

Speculate to accumulate, don't leave yourself short, but if you aren't in, you can't win.

I have won lots of postal comps & do as many as I can. I mainly do postals for the kids who have also won. The only thing is I am way behind on the normal comps now cos I have been busy with the kids dancing! So if you're gonna do postals too, it could become really addictive!

Hi,
I'm quite new to this whole comping thing been doing it for a few months entering everything I can off here but won nothing. I'm starting to get a bit disheartened. I was wondering if there were any hints and tips off you lovely people who regularly win

Is there anyway of increasing my chance of winning?
Any good comp sites I should be entering etc.

Any help will be appreciated

Best advice is just to keep at it & don't see it as a chore. I was really lucky last year & won lots each month but its slowed down for me this year even though I enter hundreds everyday. I have won 1 big prize this year which takes up the main of my total won but they messed it up so I don't know if I will even recieve it now.

you will win eventually but it can be slow, all the comps you need should be on here. & remember if you're entering newly listed comps chances are they've not closed yet.

Hope you get some nice wins heading your way soon

just enter the postal ones you really want to, superdrug do so much percent off stamps regular so worth stocking up when they have the offers on, i use 2nd class stamps mostly unless they are a quick closing date , hth ..

If closing date within the next 7 days then I use 1st (which I get free from Kantar) otherwise I use 2nd to keep the costs down. Have prices for stamps already gone up by 3p or is that next week? Thanks xx

I'm almost certain it's April they go up, as with everything else! So stock up on your stamps before April!
