    :exclamati NOSEY QUESTION COMING UP!!! :exclamati

    Hi all,

    I noticed that some people say they enter up to 400 competitions a day :eek: and basically just wanted to know where you get the extra comps from that don't appear on MSE :o

    I have tried to google search and found loads (most were already on here) and posted 2 here but one was already posted :o So how do you find them, others make it seem so easy!!!

    I am being extremely cheeky even asking but think of it as karma :rotfl: :p

    Thank you's...
    xx



    I've always wondered that..............but never asked :o Thanks for doing it for me!

    I don't think PO boxes are physical boxes, I think they are just a "bag" in the sorting office, which is delivered to the relevant "normal" address. Now if the company doesn't have someone to take delivery with the post at the weekend, then it's late.

    That makes sense. Thanks ;)

    I couldn't figure that out either. I thought the comping guide we already have is pretty comprehensive, and is updated whenever necessary anyway. What else is there to say?

    Thats what I thought too, VelvetGlove most certainly deserves to win!! although I think they are looking more along the lines of 'We live a luxury lifestyle all because of competitions'
    Thanks to everyone that posts :T:money:
