    Still waiting and hoping, but it'll come, you get these bad months, it just always feels worse in January and December for some reason! :D

    Me too, still waiting, havent had anything since November I think, but
    "Never give up, Never Surrender"!!!!! Gotta keep at it!!! I know my turn will come!
  • not that i EVER expect something for nothing...but i did expect a little more returns from all this comping! well, that is what i thought to myself only yesterday before....i opened my emails and found i had won a Misfits DVD and picked up the post this morning to find tickets to the Stitch and Craft Conference in Manchester Central. I think those tickets were an oversight entry, to be honest, so theyve gone to a good home!
  • me!!! i only started at beginning of December but not had a sausage :(

    ah well...one day :)
    started comping 8/12/10......:D

    January has been a slow month. I did get a box of Ferrero Rocher but that was it, until a couple of minutes ago when I got a mail to say I'd won some Kettle Crisps on Facebook.
    I was thinking of giving up but shall carry on now (even though it's only a small win). It can feel pointless sometimes, when you sit hour after hour filling in comps and others win two or three things a day...but just keep going.
    Even the small wins can cheer you up. I wish I knew some people's secrets though...I guess some are just lucky.

    I've won something every month since I started comping, so I'm not doing too bad...just when there's no winning e mails again each morning it can make you feel like not bothering. But you'd have no hope of winning anything if you didn't try.
    Keep going and your time will come. x

    Nothing. And I entered thousands over xmas, when I had 2 weeks off work
    Not been in here for years. Life got hectic!

    I've had nothing yet either, but will keep trying :cool:
  • I've had a few nice little wins, but just bear in mind that you sometimes don't get prizes sent out rightaway after the deadline ends. Don't lose heart. My last win was from a comp that ended in November!

    Who knows what will be coming your way , say in, Feb/March for all the effort you've put in ? x
  • Come on folks.........no giving up allowed! :):):) I haven't had a win since October either so nobody is alone in this!!!!!

    I DO know that this year will be AMAZING for wins and much better than last year......

    all we need is a bunch of patience and a BUCKET LOAD of perseverence :wall: :wall: :wall:
