    What have you won Shazza? I'm jealous.

    I have started keeping a note of everything on a spreadsheet so it is easier to keep track of what I've won :)

    Going by that this is what I have won so far:

    Oral B Vitality Toothbrush
    Barry M Make Up Set
    Now Thats What I Call Music Interactive DVD Game
    Shower Radio
    Top Spin X Box Game
    Lie Detector Machine
    Voice Changer Machine
    £20 Debehmans Gift Card
    Ticket to Cage Rage

    The last 5 things were all won last week (was a lucky one). I am putting more gusto into entering and I think its starting to pay off not as prizes are slowly coming in :D
    One day Rodney we'll be millionaires
    £2020 in 2020 - Running Total £17

    I'm a bit worried now, if I win all the comps I've entered I'll be on skiing holidays until sometime in July...

    Still no luck yet though...

    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 :)

    You are welcome. If you are a regular comper, please do contribute any comps we have missed.
  • Thougt I'd give this challenge a go too. Will need to win £180 to cover my charges. How many comps do you guys tend to enter in a day to start winning things? Many thanks to original poster as this is a fab idea - chris.
  • Yeah I understand that nothing is guaranteed, will probably do some comps when the wife is watching Eastenders or Coronation Street!

    You need to be very peristent usually to get regular prizes. If you devoted half and hour to an hour an evening you should start to get returns. I don't really have a specific number. I comp when I can and miss it when I can't. For most of us it is a hobby.
