Hi hlw88 and welcome
It is very addictive isn't it? I have only been comping since May, but had some very nice wins. My first were from instant wins (try Peroni and the Creme Egg comp) which were small but very satisfying! My fave prize is ALWAYS the most recent... so a Creme Egg keyring!
Good luck and I hope you get your first win soonPart time GCer, NSDer, Comper and (Bad)FlyladyA big shot is just a little shot that kept shooting ...0 -
I've only been comping since about october but have had a good few wins so far including a hamper and £120!
Easiest wins are probably on the St Hellier one that is running at the moment and creme egg.
Good luck! Hope to see you on the "i won! i won! i won!" forum soon!0 -

It took me about 4 weeks to see my first win (which was a fantastic set of saucepans worth approx £150). I now win approx 2 prizes a week (entering over 100 comps a day):T*Thanks to all who posts comps * :j0

I've been entering the comps on here for just over 2 years. Took me 3 months to win my first prize and to date my best wins have been a digital camera (my first win :rotfl:), a camping holiday worth £500, a flip camcorder and a load of garden tools. My kids have also won loads and loads of books and games.
However, I've never won anything worth over £500 (had 2 wins of that value) despite entering pretty much all the comps every day. Guess it's the luck of the draw :money:
Good luck with your comping career, remember to check the comping guide if there is anything you are unsure about :TThanks to everyone who posts comps, I love winning prizes big and small

I started comping at the end of November - I enter around 100-150 a day. So far I've won a set of 10 dvds, a book, another dvd and a £500 VIP party at Chiquitos :j.
I got my first win within about 2 weeks of starting, which really spurred me on to carry on! I also really enjoy reading about what other people have won (not jealous at all)
Hope to hear about your wins soon!0 -
Good luck with your new addiction!!!!!!
I started two years ago and received my first prize about two weeks later! A fish tank arrived out of the blue.
I have won loads of smaller prizes, still waiting for the big one, but happy to continue trying. I lose my mojo every now and then and realise I have not entered any for weeks, then I come back with a double mojo!!
Good luck. x2011: £10 Sports Direct Voucher, Peppa Pig Wii Game, Trivial Pursuit Card Game, £100 Chat magazine win, Dance workout dvd, Grease wii game,0 -

Good Luck for that big win!Really want to move out! Moving out - fund £00
