Anyone else lost their comping mojo? post here :)

Options
Just thought I'd start a thread cos I feel quite fed up with comping at the moment and keeping entering is a real hard slog, think I've lost my mojo... does anyone else feel like that? Let's encourage each other to keep going, hopefully a nice win will turn up soon.

Come on, comping fairy ;)

  • Yeah me too.
    I'm not bothered about the big wins but it's fun to see all the little prizes appear.
    I've barely won a thing this year despite entering thousands of comps.
    I'm thinking about calling it a day soon because it's taking up so much of my time.
    Thanks to everyone who posts comps, I love winning prizes big and small

    Not being greedy, lol most of that was one win and one as usual I did not benefit from! I do comp for fun but I'm sure others can agree that lots of our wins get taken straight away by OH, DD, DS etc or something we entered for someone else and then gave away so we don't get anything ourselves :) It would be nice to have a teeny weeny thing for me

    I think we all feel like this from time to time...some people tend to win tons and tons of stuff every Month. I wonder if they just enter through one e-mail address or they use more than one.:cool:..I only enter my own. What do other people do? Just wondering.:D

    If it makes you feel any better, the value of your wins is FAR more than mine :D
    Know what you mean about other people nabbing your prizes (insert rolleyes here!). Most of my wins have been for the kids. I haven't won all that much that I've kept myself.

    I just enter once with my own email.... I know some people enter with lots of emails and for other people etc, but I can't keep up with the comps just entering once anyway! :rotfl:

    me...I think I've been too lucky in the past, I've hardly entered and then won really good things, but now I'm entering every day and nothing!
