    How many times have you won in the 9000?

    :confused:
    I didn't get may wins early in the year so most of the wins in my signature have come from that 9000.There may be the odd one from earlier but I don't really keep detailed records.
    I pretty happy with my win rate but a really big wouldn't go amiss:D

  • I think the amount of comps you enter is less important than what they are for.
    I have entered somewhere in the region of 55,000 comps and have won lots and lots of little things like books, diaries, kids toys, makeup etc but I have NEVER won anything like a mobile phone, games console, TV etc.
    Just goes to show how may more people must want to win those types of prizes ;)
    Thanks to everyone who posts comps, I love winning prizes big and small

  • My parents love comping but they are moving to the states in a few weeks for good (leaving me behind!! :confused:)

    My mum wanted to know if there are any similar comping forums for usa residents? I think shes going to miss this a lot so if anyone knows of a similar site please could you let me know. Sorry if this isnt the right place for this post, I wasnt really sure where it'd go!

    Thanks again and good luck to everyone..

    I enter about 100 comps every day and then some regular comps daily, weekly, monthly. I started in Feb and every month, I've won more prizes than the month before, so its definitely worth just plodding on. It took 8 weeks for the first win to come and even then, it was a tiny one!

    If you are only entering comps with one big prize there are less chances of winning, a) because there is only one prize and b)because loads more people enter them than lots of little prizes so I make sure I'm entering a fair amount of both.
    Thanks to all who post comps!

    I've won an argument tonight if that counts :rotfl:
    If At First You Don't Succeed, Call It Version 1.0 :D
  • I started on the 30/06/09. So far I've entered 1000 comps in that time. So far I've won:

    2 x Hotel stays
    2 x Ashes cricket tickets
    An Ipod dock
    A Bruno Goodie bag
    A Peroni jacket
    2 x London Zoo tickets.

    I've done an approx. calcuation of the amount of these prizes and it comes to around £445, which isn't a bad return.

    I've stopped entering so many now though as I was doing most of the comps at work and my work was suffering...
