    Hello all, where the heck do I find all these fabbo competitions then? Is there a special website, or do I have to trawl google for the best ones?

    Any advice anyone!

    From the UK Competitions site, Loquax and here and the ones in your local newspaper are usually quite good winners too.

    Good luck 'i wanna save money' - there are lots of prizes out there. Would definatley recommend Loquax as i won £1000's (not kidding) when I was a member with them. The only thing I would advise is that before long it takes over your life. You will be shopping and only buying things with competitions on them, looking for wrappers in the gutter, going through bins, visiting friends and going through their cupboards for comps. It sounds mad but it happens - you only have to mention the words Fanta, Nutrigrain and the like to Loquats. Your family disowns you, you get labelled a freak at work and the postie gets really fed up. Go on - have you 15 mins of fame, book your place in rehab now.

    But I see you are still comping. Long waiting list at rehab?:D
  • I've won quite a few things over the years, including two DVD players, digital camera, several batches of gardening vouchers, an electric guitar signed by Lyndsey Lohan, quite a few CDs, theatre and cinema tickets. and games. I have won so much on the local radio station that the DJ's know my voice (is it time to stop (nah!)). I have NEVER won anything off anything I entered from Loquax though!! I love entering comps and never know what's coming through the post next.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
