    lol, I've just typed a reply to pretty much the same question on another thread!

    About 80-100 comps a day I enter, and I would never ever pay to enter competitions, or have someone enter them on my behalf! Besides, with the kind folks in this forum you need never go anywhere else as they find more than enough competitions (it feels like too many when you are doing the month end ones!!) for everyone to enter!

    i enter the comps daily by searching on the thread title and then do them by date that way you can keep track of what you enter easier and it doesnt seem an age before you get a win. when i first started and didnt know how to search like that (i couldnt explain it to u know but there is a whole thing on it somewhere) i just entered the ones as they were posted and never seemed to win anything usually because the end dates were light years away.

    I never had a mega win but been doing it quite religiously since july and had some really good wins last year every little helps as they say.

    I hope you win something soon

  • hi Jane - I just started back in November & have had a bit of luck.....just keep going & don't forget to scour your local newspapers for comps as these can be low entry & a wee win will spur you on!
    Good Luck :)

  • I think there are more than enough comps on here to keep anyone busy 24 hours a day! No need to pay to be told about them.

    I enter around 1500 a month.
