I have been doing the competitions listed here most days for the last couple of months and haven't had one single win

Am I not doing enough ? Or maybe just unlucky ... any tips anyone to increase my chances ?

thanks

Can anyone tell me how to stop showing the page that I have came from to other websites?

Thanks

I think refecon works for this.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/refcontrol/
Or just C&p the link in a new tab.

Just search on here for refcon & I'm sure there is more info.

I search choosing Thread Title, Descending, Beginning, from the options at bottom of competition page.

Comps dated 5/5 start on page 192

URL http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.php?f=72&pp=20&sort=title&order=desc&daysprune=-1&page=192

There are 10 pages full of comps, finishing on page 202

You can also put them in Ascending order if you prefer them to be ordered 01/01, 01/02, 01/03 etc (I just click on the word Thread where it says 'Thread / Thread Starter' and order them that way which puts them in Ascending order, it's only one click so I tend to prefer it :rotfl:)

The problem with searching for dates is that you will only ever get 12 pages (300 threads) of results and some days, especially towards the end of the month, have more than that, on the last day of the month you're looking at 50+ pages of threads! :eek:
