How many wins per entry!!!

I know this will vary dramatically with everybody but it would be interesting to hear an average of how many wins you get per entry.
I was reading an article of an American who enters 600 comps a day and wins a lot of stuff. As of today I have entered approx 250 comps and won nothing My Diary
Is there anybody out there who has entered in excess of say 1000 comps and won nothing?? What is the average amount of comps people enter to win something??
Would be nice to hear others successes.
Regards

I've won 3 prizes this year and have entered roughly around 300 (maybe even more) since January, but keep it up. Alot of MSE's have won due to links on this site. Goodluck!<('@')> Oink0

Nice one. So the rule of thumb so far would suggest if you enter a 1000 comps you would expect to win at least 2 or 3.
I'll need to quicken up.
If only there was 1000 car competitions to enter :rotfl:Ask me no questions, and I'll tell you no lies0 -
I enter about 100 per week if you include the online and email ones. I win roughly about 1 per month but I have had 2 large prizes in the last 6 months.2008 Comping ChallengeWon so far - £3010 Needed - £230Debt free since Oct 20040

Bloody hell! :O 100/week is a lot, does it take much time out of your week and where do you find them all?My Doctor told me that "1 out of 3 people who start smoking will eventually die." The other two apparently became immortal.

I returned to comping 2 months ago, I enter about 100 a week. I have had one win this month. An audion tape of Lemony Snickett, my kids love it, retails at about £25.00. Altough I have only won one prize, most of the comps I have entered, their closing date is not up yet.Politeness is free, it costs nothing!
