    Can I ask if it is worth subscribing to the comping mags????? I've often considered it but not really sure whether or not they have anything additional in them....

    any advise appreciated.....:o:o

    Cheers KJx

    found some stats of entries for text comps in one of my comping mags, shows its always worth entering as there are lower entries:D

    coke/world cup text comp through a national store chain only got 45 entries

    sunday star comps, one week there was only 25 entries for 1 of their comps and the most popular only got 136 entries

    always worth trying as there are lower entries for text comps:D
    2013 - Best year ever with wins over £8,500
    Prizes Wishlist: BAFTA goody bag, Food hamper, KitchenAid mixer
    Need to get my finger out and start entering more comps :o:o:o
    :j :j Bonkers about Comping...... Thanks all posters :j :j

    Galaxy Manchester

    James will bring a randomly chosen caller to air each evening and ask them 5 questions on general pop culture. Each question is worth a certain amount of money:

    Question 1 –£50
    Question 2 - Prize fund rises to £100
    Question 3 - Prize fund rises to £250
    Question 4 - Prize fund rises to £500
    Question 5 - Prize fund rises to £1000

    Get a question right and you’ll move onto the next amount, get one wrong and you’ll lose everything. But because we’re feeling extra nice, we’ll give you one chance to back up your prize meaning if you get the next question wrong, you’ll still win something – the amount that was backed up.

    Good luck!
