    Welcome Jo-b. You may not need that long. I have won over £900 worth of prizes and its just March. This came as a huge surprise to me.

    Well done! :eek: :T

    I probably won't get the opportunity to enter more than a few a day - certainly for the time being. When I have some AL in a few weeks, I'm going to hit the comps board with a vengeance! ;)

    I just need to find some 'easy win' comps with good odds of winning a prize! :rolleyes:

    Try the skill ones. Even those that require a small amount of skill get less entries.

    Hi Prudent and fellow challenge members, I've been around for a little while on here and have actually managed to post a few competitions that hadn't already been posted (that was a real toughie!) I'm really enjoying the 'community' feel to it all and everyone is so friendly and helpful.
    I'm starting to get a bit more confident about what I'm doing and as I've managed to contribute, a little to the pot, so to speak, if it's okay with you guys, I'd like to join in the challenge (I know it's a little late but going by previous posts that seems to be acceptable)
    If it's okay I'll change my signature to include target/ internet costs.
    I'm hoping this will spur me on to 'win, win ,win'

    Lo-bush, I am really delighted that you have joined. It is a toughie finding unposted comps, but no-one minds re-posts. We all do them.

    Thanks Prudent,:T I've edited my signature to include my target etc. When I get time I'm going to try to work out how to make it all pretty colours like yours!
    Hopefully, joining your challenge will bring me some luck:T

    Signature now a pretty purple!

    Hi Everyone
    I think this challenge is bringing a bit of luck to everyone - I haven't won anything for a long time but have won 2 tickets to ideal home show & travel expenses, a cheque for £160!!!! The comp was in my local paper but I did enter by email so hope this counts for the challenge. If it does the tickets are worth £32 so value of prize is £192. My internet costs are £180.

    Welcome philsu. Sadly your comp doesn't count for the challenge as its for online wins only. I have added an 'offline wins' section to my signatures for wins like local paper comps. Join us with the online comps and you will get some wins towards the challenge.
