    Yep I've won a couple of times. I've either had WEM's from them, or a surprise delivery. Don't just limit yourself to emails though. But good luck x

    A WEM is a winning email message. It's when they email you to let you know that you've won.

    Remember aswell that some of the competitions that you're entering won't have finished yet.

  • ive had a few wins from emails comps, wems are winning emails, thing is if you limit yourself to how many comps u do you also limit your chances of winning, im now working and find if i set myself an hour or 2 on an evening to do the comps id realy like to win rather than just entering every thing going, must say tho as im not comping all day everyday the fairy has forgot where i live but keep at it, and the wins will arrive, good luck x
  • I have won more this year through emails then by filling in competition forms especially the childrens e-mail comps.

  • Sorry for late reply, i have only just spotted this.

    From email comps i have won a fair few DVDs and CDS aswell as a Wii, Ipod Nano, Luxury Food Hamper, Ripcurl Goody BAG, Kids Toys & a Handbag. In my opinion the majority of my wins have come from Email competitions.
