Win ratio - regular compers?
Comments
-
I'd find it hard to estimate ratio. As others have said, I only enter competitions for things I would like to win, either for myself or someone I know. It really does seem a matter of luck. I only treat it as a hobby and enter them when I'm happy to and stop when I get fed up. I started entering competitions about 18 months ago and have had some great wins and also some really quiet months. My best win and biggest is a trip to Chicago, flying business class and staying at a great hotel which we're taking next month, but these don't come along often so I would say just enter for fun and see what happens!A [STRIKE]B[/STRIKE][STRIKE]C [/STRIKE]D E [STRIKE]F[/STRIKE]G H I J K L M N O P Q R S [STRIKE]T[/STRIKE]U V [STRIKE]W [/STRIKE]X Y Z0

I enter most of the competitions ending each day, I dont enter any ticket comps as I wouldnt use them, and I dont enter for things I dont need (wedding stuff, baby stuff)
I rarely get around to the daily, weekly or monthly comps although I do play instant wins.
Doing this I tend to win something small at least once a week. I have had a couple of £200 - £300 wins. Still waiting on a biggie but thats just a matter of time right ?Total 2019: £3972 - Best win this year £3000
2018 total £4062/2017 total £2260/ 2016 total £2025/ 2015 total £3809.0
