Has the comping fairy flown south for winter?

Not sure if it is just me struggling at the moment, well for quite a while to be honest, or is everyone having an incredibly dry patch? I haven't won for months despite entering 100's and 100's of comps week after week. I am starting to get really fed up with it. :(

Congrats to everyone who is being lucky tho, I always enjoy reading the winning posts :T

If the comping fairy does read this can you pleeeeeease send me just a midgy bit of luck. Thank you xx :)

    Hang in there, your time will come.

    I had a 3 month dry spell earlier this year, it will end.

  • Hi hoggle, Don't feel too down - just remember every comp you enter you have as much chance of winning as the next person!

    I only win approx once per month and I put hours in which compared to some people on here is rubbish lol but it keeps me out of trouble. I know I will never, ever win a laptop or an iPhone but I still keep entering just in case lol!
