I had always assumed the peeps at Date Solution Centre laughed at my pathetic homemade cereal box postcards

And I thought I was the only comper who used cereal box postcards :rotfl:plus my orange dot :rotfl:

Congratulations on your win :T:T

Think I'll try the cereal box idea thanks! Been doing postcards since I joined but only ever won a dvd so starting to worry Im wasting money especially since the text prizes can be very tempting. I buy a pack of small blank postcards from Rymans but does anyone think size matters? Or bright colours? I can only draw smiley flowers and stars so thats the only decoration I manage to put on! I know its down to luck as usual but just thought it was worth asking.

I use anything I can get my hands on! :rotfl:

I try to 'tailor' them to the comp in the vain hope they might stand out i.e if its a prize for a pet I'll send it on something doggie related like a Bonio box, or a children's one on a kids cereal bar box. I like to think the 'eco' type comps will be impressed by my recycling skills!

I've tried allsorts - free postcards from the cinema and library are good - usually very bright and eyecatching. I use the ones pre-printed from Vistaprint when I'm feeling lazy and when I've got some on offer.

I do find with the homemade ones, that I tend to cut them a little larger than standerd sized postcards . Oh, and M, I have tried using a yellow dot, but not sure if any of this makes any difference whatsoever.

Personally, I imagine the likes of Data Solutions Centre simply input the details to a computer then draw a random winner, in which case it doesn't make a jot of difference what your card looks like. I've always wondered this. Don't imagine big orgs still have a giant hat to draw from, and ones where there is dual entry method like postcard and text, surely they must upload the data otherwise how would they choose which 'hat' to draw them from?
