wow no where near that, about 20 a day maybe more.
I'll just keep trying
Thanks.

Sorry but if you are only entering 20 approx a day then there is very little hope, but you never know. I enter about 100 a day and have won some great things but the more you enter then more chance. You do have enter loads to win really.

Good luck.

I started in November and enter roughly 200 a day over facebook and Mse. I enter for things I know I can use for pressies for other people for Christmas and birthdays as well as my most desirables. I won a pair of Christian Louboutins 2 weeks ago on facebook and an Ipad 2 on there last week. I've won tons of other stuff like tickets to gigs and food hampers as well, problem with the "desirable" comps is they have many more entries lowering your chances - keep going and you'll probably get a win. Facebook is a good place to be though.

Good luck x

hi i'm a newbie and don't really want to use my real FB page as lots of people from work see it and will see that i am entering comps. Can you use a pseudonym or something, any ideas how to get round this at all pls? TIA

I've had some lovely wins...only started last October but, even though I win some nice stuff, I don't win that much compared to others.
I only enter for what I want, or what my family can use and I only enter once with one account. I don't know if others enter with different e mails etc, but I don't have time for that.

Some people win loads week after week and never have a dry spell, but I have no idea how. It can't just be numbers, so maybe some are naturally lucky. Or maybe there are ways that only some are "in the know" about. Kind of like a Masonic Compers Club.

When the month is going slow for me after so much effort, and others are winning everything, I do wonder if there are secrets that others know, that I have no idea about.

Then again, I'm always grateful for what I do win because I've tried so hard. All I can say is just keep trying and I wish you the best of luck. x

Its a good idea to sign up for another F/b account, thats what Ive done and keep it purely for competitions. I found that previously all the comp sites came up on my wall saying "I like Velvet toilet paper" for example, so all my friends could see it.

Have no idea how many I enter, but I start in the morning - I hurry and get ready for work, put the washing in, tidy the kitchen, make the bed etc then about 20mins before Im due to leave the house I start doing a few daily competitions, Glamour, Dorset Cereals etc etc and then I dont get much chance before 5/6 ish when I sit with my laptop doing comps all the way through the soaps until I go to bed. I always try and get the majority of the comps finishing tomorrow done, however come the end of the month I fail miserably.

I dont enter everything, never enter for tickets, I dont really like Blogs and am useless on Twitter, though i have a go. I do enter the ITV comps but the chance of winning these is slight. My biggest wins are wins for items around the £150 mark although these dont come very often. Ive won a Food Processor, Flip Mino Camera, Foot stepper gym equipment but sometimes the small wins are the most useful. Lets say I havent had to buy a mascara in the last 2 years and today for example I received a bottle of Vosene Shampoo through the post, but my point is that these small wins are saving me quite a lot of money.

I use a comping facebook account (in fact now my only fb account so I can't get accused of cheating). It's much easier as I didn't want tons of comps being posted on famly and friends walls. I only enter once - even the ITV ones where you can enter 5 or 6 times (never won any of those though lol). I don't watch much tv, don't read books as a mum of four I'm constantly up and down sorting out spills, tears and setting up activities and I use the tools suggested on here like Roboform and Multi links. It's easy to do 10 or 20 comps here and there then get stuck in at night. I only enter for what I know we can use - which is quite a lot with kids ranging from 2 years and 21 years of age. Then there's what I save putting wins away in my present drawer - it's like a small unstable part time income for me and I love every win

I really dont have time to enter 200 a day etc but thanks everyone for the advice and lots of luck xx

something between 20 and 50 a day depending on how keen I am.

I got some good advice from my cousin when I started which was not just to do the really BIG competitions with fab prizes, but to do the smaller facebook and twitter ones too.

I've won lots of little things - peanut butter, various bits of make-up, chocolates, crisps, easter eggs. I've won tickets to shows and exhibitions (I live in london, so thats usually great for me) I've also won a few vouchers (£50 from next, £100 from belvoir, £50 from somewhere I cant remember!!!!). And I've won a couple of things which I regard as 'big wins' even though they are not in the league of car/holiday to disney stuff. I won a really nice kingsize bed with pocket sprung mattress and memory foam topper and a VERY useful dyson hand held vacuum cleaner.

I know for me it's the little wins that encourage me to keep trying! I'm still waiting for the iPad, the car and the 2 week luxury spa holiday...

Good luck to everyone here and thank you so much for the people who post lots of comps!

I wouldn't worry too much about entering hundreds every day...not everyone has time for that! I've only been comping since October last year, entering about 20-30 a day, and have won over £5k worth of stuff. Keep going and I'm sure you'll get something soon, good luck
