    Actually, there is such a thing as a free lunch; it's just that few of us are rich enough to get to see it.

    Hi Scooter and welcome!
    Only tips I can give is enter for things you want and will use/pass on to friends etc.. Always press the thanks button so you know you've entered (others subscibe to the thread but I find that confusing!). Be patient, wins don't always come quickly. Enjoy it!
    Thank you to everyone who posts comps! :A
    I would like to be lucky,healthy & happy in 2020! :T

    Best advice is to read THIS thread scooter, it contains everything that you need.

    And definitely do what isitenough recommends.

    Hi :)

    The best thing to do is probably have a read of the comping guide: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1014121

    It will probably answer most questions you have :)

    Good luck and hope you win some good stuff :beer:

    Thank you for the warm welcome, I will read that long thread now. I t looks very interesting. The only thing that does worry me is entering my telephone number and address, do you get a lot of junk mail?

    as long as you don't tick boxes agreeing to receiving it you;ll be fine (make sure you read whether you have to tick or untick the box), I have probably received only 2 calls in 2 years and 1 piece of junk mail. Just don't enter any of the comps that are on the 'avoid' list in the comping guide! (but they are not normally posted on this site and if they are they are very quickly removed)

    I'd agree with that, personally I don't mind getting emails, I have received some really good offers and ideas for presents from them. Plus you get to hear about any new comps coming up, I usually just choose not to receive third party emails.
