  • Hi,

    Like many others i am new to regular comping - i did the odd raffle in the past but thought i would make a bit of a hobby of it. ive been doing it seriously for about 2 weeks.

    To those that have been doing it for some time i have 3 simple questions if you dont mind. The answers will be interesting to know and hopefully motivating.

    1) How many competitions on average do you enter a week?

    2) Once you started doing it regularly how long was it until you won a reasonable prize? (ie not a pen or a packet of crisps etc)

    3) roughly how often do you win something? (monthly/weekly etc)

    Cheers and good luck!?!

    1. I enter too many to count a week!

    2. First of all don't think of them as 'reasonable' prizes! Every prizes. My first 'big' win was within a month of comping!

    3.It comes in phases I find I tend to get nothing for a while and then a few things at once.
    But don't go into it expecting to win anything!
