    Well done on the potential job. Out of interest on the copying and pasting note, will the new site you will be working on post the same comps as MSE & Loquax etc or will you be sourcing new comps? Just wondering as the two sites seem to have it covered.

    as far as i'm aware it will be mainly focusing on facebook and twitter comps and i'll source all the comps from there directly.
    Not really comping any more as too ill - but hoping to win £1000+ in 2017 in cash prizes - watch this space!
  • Good luck Treacle and as for Kaelea being cruel/mean youve got to be joking??

    She actually cracks me up with her comments, its nice to read Kaelea's comments as they brighten the mood on here,

    Very Hard to Live of Comps you will need to do Radio Comps to get the best result as £££ and Holidays can be won on local Major Radio shows but ten their T&Cs state Big winners need to wait 6 months before becoming another major winner again and SOME radio stations use softwear to check if you have won...There was a Lady who wn on Magic and they took her to court as she used family members names to win £100000 Plus and Magic Won the case so NEVER use some one elses name.

    Good Luck Tho hope you do it.

  • UPDATE

    Ok so not winning to much this month: xmas hamper, liqueur, book etc..

    But:

    Have been up to reading today and will be updating a new twitter and facebook comping list site from January.
    It's only a couple hours a day - but will cover my bills.

    Will try and find a little part time job to fit in with it.

    So yeah - in a way you can make a living from comping.

    Hi Treacle, I was wondering how you were getting on with your challenge! Hope you are winning lots of lovely things! :)

    I'm about as close as I could ever get with this challenge. Thanks.

    My JOB if you could call it that - is updating competitionclub every day with facebook and twitter comps - It pays enough for the bills and rent with a little left over! I guess that kinda making a living from comping!

    I'm still getting plenty of wins - most recently a spa break worth £300 and 2 bottles of wine last week.

    I'm also blogging - confessionsofacompaholic and that although not making me any money - is getting me lots of extra goodies to review - in the last month - devilishh puddings, sudocrem, bach kit, book, notepad, diet book, recipt book, detox in a box kit, eco friendly wine, diet green tea, slimming website membership, weight loss supplements, 1 weeks worth of tony ferguson diet, ongoing supply of diet shakes.

    So yes - I think i'm just about there - I now work from home doing something I love - comping!
