    Don't forget that a lot of the comps that you entered over the past couple of months probably haven't ended yet. They may all end at once and you'll be inundated with parcels ;)

    I have been very lucky ~ within my first month of Comping i have had a few small wins, books tshirts, chocolates and a Wii and DAB Radio. I know that is more than some people have won over a longer period of time so im greatful, however at the moment im feeling a little unlucky. lol

    i would say a wii is a fairly big win, compared to us unlucky ones who haven't won a thing.

    well done on winning that amount in your first month !!!

    I wondered if the prizes were starting to dry up because of the credit crunch? The prizes dont seem as big as they were last year.
