    Great idea I'm gonna have a go

    Welcome. You will find plenty of comps on site. You will win, the main key to success is persistence. Look at the winner's board to see what we are winning. I have won four comps within the space of a week: £25 from real people, £50 from mse's own post of the month comp, a double little mermaid cd and a Scotsman calendar. Good luck. I hope you have fun.

    I think it's time I joined in too.

    I reduced my broadband cost to £19.99 a month (with a 16x speed upgrade) last month so my costs are £239.88

    So far I've won the Pigsback crossword (£20) and the Avon detox patches (£28) so £28 total. Still a lot to go though.

    All new participants are very welcome. You are off to a good start. Just keep entering and you will win more.
  • Hi all, I am still only on 3 quid so far, but i have been without a computer since I joined! I am new to comping so I'm going to stick the MSE board for now.
    Good luck everyone, well done Prudent !

    You will win. The key is peristence and really just more persistence. Don't just go for the bigger prizes as the smaller prizes attract less entries. I have just won 6 :eek: prizes in a week, which is my best yet. I am just about to add up, but I think it will be around £170 in a week. :D

    I'd like to join in too please.

    Strictly speaking we don't pay anything for our internet connection as we get it free with our Sky package because we have Sky Broadband.

    However entering competitions is a hobby of mine so it will be interesting to see how everyone does.

    So far this year my prizes add up to £165.50 not bad for only a couple of weeks into February :)
