  • No Alilyn don't give up, your day will come, keep trying!
  • Can I ask how many you enter and what for hun?

    If you only enter a few and it's all for big prizes like holidays and itv wins then that may be why.

    Try entering some with smaller and more prizes like the current 'fabulous' one on facebook where you can keep playing til you get a win if you like.

    I enter a lot of giveaways like the 'glavya' one on facebook just before xmas where they gave the first 2000 people to like a 30cl bottle of liqueur.

    I find I win most from facebook and email competitions.

    I enter over 3000 a month on average.

    happy to give help and tips if you want to PM me.

    Hope the comping fairy visits you soon - please don't give up.
    Not really comping any more as too ill - but hoping to win £1000+ in 2017 in cash prizes - watch this space!

    First they came for the crack users; but I said nothing. I was not a crack user. Then they came for the heroin users. But I said nothing - I was not a heroin user. Then they came for me. There was no one left to speak for me. (after Pastor Niemoller)

    Don't give up! We all go through quiet patches! I hardly won anything last year then from November to now I have won a book, a shrug and clutch bag from Next, £97 Morrisons vouchers and now a £5 Fru voucher tonight!

    You need to stay positive as like attracts like so if you believe you are going to win then you will! :j

    Good luck for a fab win soon!

    I'm the same- have been comping for 16 months now and didn't win anything then have won shakira tickets and quite a few small baby related prizes lately but had at least 12 months without anything. Don't give up!
  • Honestly, if you don't enjoy doing it without winning anything, then I would say give up. I win a reasonable amount (without getting one of the big wins yet) but if I just didn't enjoy entering the comps anyway, I wouldn't consider what I've won worth the time I've spent entering them. You have to treat it like any other hobby, and actually enjoy the activity, doing it just for the winnings will never pay off in the end.

    As the saying goes "You have to be in it to win it!!!!!" (or not as the case may be!!!!) Gosh I just like looking at the pretty flashing pictures and clicking boxes - its so mesmerising!!!!!!! (oh and getting 100's of useless emails in my box virtually every day - can you tell i aint got no friends lol!!!!!!!!!) No winning emails mind,but what the heck eh its just abit of fun passes the time!
