Winning Ratio???
Comments

Since March I have entered about 7672 competitions (not that I am counting - ha ha) and I have won 20 items - you do the math.
I never opt-in and I spend about 6 hours a day doing comps Monday to Friday.BEST WIN LAST YEAR - MULBERRY HANDBAGSENDING STICKY VIBES TO THOSE WHO NEED THEM

Since February this year, I reckon I have done 100 comps a day most days, and try and save a few days near the end of the month to tackle the gazillions ending on the last day. My wins varied from 8 weeks for the first one to come, then maybe 1 or 2 a month increasing gradually to 9 prizes so far this month.
I'm not sure how easily it can all be worked out, it would depend on whether one month more of the comps I enter have only one prize, or theres a bigger giveaway with lots of prizes etc.
Oh, and I always opt out of further contact, and while value wise my prizes haven't been massive, 8 or 9 small prizes a month is not bad going and proves that it doesn't really make a difference!Thanks to all who post comps!TWBMI2010:Wii, Money/Vouchers, Baby/Toddler stuffA [STRIKE]B[/STRIKE] C D E F [STRIKE]G[/STRIKE] H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z2010 - Jul - Book, Garden Games0 -
I'd say its about 1:1000 for me. I've won more this month than I ever have due to the fact I'm on my summer holidays and entering more comps than usual. That will drop right down from September onwards when Uni work takes the priority again!Thanks to all posters!0

I wish 1:100
I think its probably best if you do as many as you can, even for the small wins as they give you a boost and the urge to carry on (maybe the only prizes I will ever win LOL).
Last month I must have entered thousands - spent hours and hours each day - and got two wins! (small ones at that!!) Some months I have entered a few hundred and received about 5 - so you never know! Still hoping some will filter through unexpectantly. :rotfl::rotfl:
Thanks to all the Posters!:beer:0
