    i spend around 2 and a half hours each night goin thru pages on comps i get thru about 15 pages which usually takes me to where i finished off i have been doin pretty good on the win side getting lots of the small win but i reckon thats just down to sheer perserverance. even the little wins makes my day/week.

    [EMAIL="wow@markfezzer"]wow@markfezzer[/EMAIL] £1000 a month in prizes saying that i have only been comping for a couple of months and have already won about £800 worth..

    hoping to win a couple of biggies not so big to others maybe ds or ipods for santa every little helps as they say with 4 boys to look after i certainly need all the help i can get. we have just moved into a new 5 bed 2 bath house and need lots of nice new stuff to fill it.....
    well done everyone i wish u all the very best in future comps....

    We are very lucky....having seen some comments on only spending a few hours I fee like I might be taking too long.
    I swear it takes me hours and sometimes I feel like I'm doing it all day but in the end I've only enter like 120 that day and that's on a very good day!

    I spend every spare minute on here (posting and entering), I do dailies, weeklies, main board, monthly's, postals and texts :) Sometimes it's hard when you have a very dry spell, but then you get the wins that just keep you going. In the last 4 weeks I've won a 50" TV, PS3, Sony Xperia X10 phone & loads of other prizes worth around £50-80, this is after a very loong dry spell, so back to being happy. It's great fun though :D

    I originally came on here to stop me internet shopping :) so as a way of saving money its worked well :). I prob do an hour or so a day after work just what I like the look of then maybe do a catch up now and again on the weekends, as Im off this week Ive done a load more so fingers crossed. I was uber lucky and won £1k of jewellery in february which was fab and since then Ive had lovely small wins. I dont really do the dailies, weeklys and monthlys regularly, just now and again. Its fun for me so I guess if it stops being fun I will take a break but I can see myself coming back. Its quite addictive :)
    thanks to everyone for posting comps and answers too xx

    Do I feel lucky?
    As long as me and my loved ones are in good health, I have a roof over my head and food in my belly...I feel like the luckiest guy alive.[/QUOTE]

    I was flicking through this thread feeling sorry for myself as I have had a bad start to the year and I read your comments and it puts everything into perspective. Hope u win many more comps:D

    I spend a couple of hours in the evening entering comps, I have had some great wins over the last few years so it keeps me going.

    Thanks to all who find the comps and post them.
    Big Thanks to all those who post competitions you are stars!
