    Hi Jumbo , yes people do win from post card entries. I have won some lovely things. You will often see posts from people who have won on this board.

    What is that you are waiting for? a win in general or a win from that particular competition. Either way just keep entering and I am sure a win will come along. Its all the luck of the draw, you have to be in it to win it. But there are no guarantuees even if you enter every week. Good luck

    Dear Korky,

    With people mentioning low entry by text, I was wondering about postal competitions, huge amount of entries....

    Not that you had missed anything off...just general chatter. I was surprised about the text low entries.
