    How many comps a day? Just a few, or are we talking 50+? No guarantees with this comping lark, I'm afraid! Most of us just like filling things in lol. If you get a win, great! I've stopped expecting them. A holiday would be fab, but I know the chances are sooooo slim, especially as I can't enter those outside of school hols as hubby's a teacher.

    Have had a couple of good ones over the last couple of years, but the good ones are few and far between. If you're not a bit addicted generally, a win ain't gonna make you continue. It's the 'hope' or just addictiveness that keeps most of us going.

    Do you use a form filler or do each one manually?

    thats what i thought until last week when i won a £500 phone . dont give up .
    Enter as many as you can . Its a hobby , not a job , so enjoy it .

    When u get your first win , it is SUCH a buzz , so keep going .

    Dont just enter big things likes all inclusive holidays , or tvs etc...

    Anyway keep going , and expect the unexpected .

    enter quite a few a day now, i fill them in one by one as i only have a phone. I would love to win a netbook or a laptop as i can't afford one.
    But after months of trying you begin to lose hope, i don't think it makes a difference how many you enter. There can only be one winner. You're either lucky or you're not and i am not lucky lol.
    Thanks and i wish you lots of luck with your competitions.

    if your using a phone , ur chances are a little slimmer . you get more done with a computer , as u can use facebook and competitions with flash player .

    I enter probably around 30 , sometimes upto 50 , a day . Dont expect to win , and you will be surprised .
