    I hadn't won anything from new years eve until March. I was about to give up and have a break but seems my luck returned so I kept going. :) Keep at it there might just be a big win about to come your way

    I haven't done too badly so can't complain, but there are definitely far more people comping now than there used to be. If you check the Forums list, at the moment there are over 500 people viewing the comps board, that's a lot of compers :)

    My last big was in March and I had a small win just after it. Havent won diddly since then, which is annoying. Maybe it's just my luck building up for a HUGE win ;)

    Ive also noticed the extra people. I entered one comp very late after it was posted and there were over 500 thanks on it!
    Total Value of wins in 2009: £900 appox. 2010: £730
    Wins 2011: Carlisle Utd Tickets (twice!), Baby Food Hamper, Straighteners, Chugginton Toy

    Been comping since 2007 won a couple of good prizes that first year worth £2000 but not much since, I still enter everything that takes my fancy, as if your not in it you will never win it - that motto keeps me going:D and love the winners board to spur me on

    I have noticed that there are much more compers now than 3 years ago. I dream of winning a holiday and it is that dream which keep me comping so fingers crossed and good luck to us all :)
