My best win was a £1000 off one of the magazines, especially after my best friend said that nobody wins anything (didn't stop him from enjoying the cricket tickets I won and gave him! lol) I am so glad I found this site as since my boyfriend died two years ago.. nothing has gone right including being unable to find work (I have two degrees so get told I am over qualified!), a nasty accountant who swears at me (now ex-accountant!) If it wasn't for this site then I really don't know what I would have to get up for!
There are some lovely people on here too x
Thank you to all posters - you are fabulous!!! :beer:0 -

For me it would most likely be my Drench smartpack win which was a samsung netbook, £230 Boots vouchers, 64 boxes of graze packs, years heat subscription and £50.00 Itunes vouchers. This has made all the difference to me because I can now comp in the bedroom whilst the kiddies are noisy, I have saved a fair bit on makeup and toiletries with a nice sum left over to pay for some Christmas presents. I can treat myself to a graze pack and a copy of heat once a week for a bit of me time and the Itunes voucher will be a christmas gift

My best win would have to be my win on the Fru wheel of fortune. I won tickets to the Karen Hardy Dance Night and a room in the 5 star hotel it was being held in. Not something I would ever have paid money to do, but it was a fantastic night. The bottle of champagne helped and ordering dessert from room servce at 3am was nice too.
Also when I finally won boxes of cereal on the Dorset Cereal spin the bottle game. I was jumping around the house like Zeebadee lol.
Most of my other wins have been little ones, but I view each one as a bonus and they keep me comping when I'm losing heart and wondering why I'm bothering when I'm not winning.0 -
Thanks for sharing all of your wins and stories everyone! Some great stories on here!
I have to say I'm really enjoying it and am surprised at what I've won already! There is a really nice community feel on here and I'm so grateful for everyone who posts comps. x0 -
I've won quite a few holidays a couple worth over £4000 and a quite a few with £1000 cash spends, also won quite a few large cash wins, biggest was £3070...but my best ever win was priceless....I got to present the Motor Show from Birmingham for the BBC...it was a comp advertised on the telly ,you had to write in 25 words why you should get to do it...and I won...very long , hard day, at the studios at 8am and then to the Motor Show and then back to the TV studios to edit etc and sit in the 'gallery' to watch it on the TV that night.....it entailed charging around with a camera crew which was great fun, I met such fantastic people, lots of 'celebrities' and got to sit in lots of cars for filming including having a great time in an Aston Martin...0
