How long have you been entering competitions?

I am just curious to know how long people have been doing this and whether many people keep entering long term? I use to enter a lot (and have won some smashing prizes), but being a single parent with a very demanding job, I find it almost impossible to enter consistantly and tend to give up for long spells.

    I've been doing competitions for 6/7 weeks and won my first prize this week, retro footyie shirt. I normally try and have two/three good spells a week and catch up with entering the comps. Mostly on here as well as my book marks (previously sites from here). The comps are normally open for a while so there's no need to do them the day they are posted as long as you keep a regular check.
    Regards,
