    Have just managed to reduce my internet from 17.99 to 14.99 and get a free bt home hub in the bargain so need £180 for the year to cover.
  • well... this year has been a very very good year for me and my other half.

    all our comp wins have been through local radio stations and we've been in the paper twice because of them... i put a list in my signature strip, radio stations are so easy to win on. you should give it a go.

  • Super dad...... That's excellent, congratulations...

    I started comping a weeks ago.. I now have a weeks worth of washing and cleaning to do to catch up!!!

    Looking forward to a small win, for encouragement.....

    Internet costs £263.88....... need a win by the end of the year.... oh well there's always 2008
    However thanks to this site, and similar ones, I am now Debt Free, after 10 years or more of struggling.... 2 x credit cards..GONE!!! Thanks to repayment of charges, and also repayment of PPI interest unjustly taken out of my account.

    can i join the comp challenge?
    is it for internet costs?
    ive been entering 100+ a day for last 10 days, off a few diff sites, i had a rough ride recently so my partner thought itwould cheer me up while i clear my head and prepare for 2008.
    Thanks to this site i got £2,500 in bank charges back and used it towards my ivf (unfortunatley it failed) so i need the distraction, sorry if tmi.

    I'm coming back. I joined ages ago and met my challenge but now I feel another coming. I know it is supposed to be broadband but ours is paid for by hubbys firm so I am going for my Uni fees for this year which are £1200. I know it's a large amount but I'm up for any challenge. I'm afraid I will enter anything as long as I either want it or I can sell it on ebay/amazon to pay off fees (Sorry if that offends anyone but being a DFW comes first)
    Anyone else got a large amount to challenge for?
    So good luck everyone

    HOORAY HOORAY !

    :) I have completed my challenge ( JUST ) A few recent wins are:

    POLLY POCKET RACE TO THE MALL x 2 my daughter urgently wanted one of these for christmas, so entered 2 comps to win them and won both, so will be giving one to a friends daughter for christmas both of these came with 2 extra cars, so the main item is worth £29.99 each and the cars £2.99 each

    so that adds upto £71.94

    then I won a mini Mr Bean poster worth about £1.00

    and then found out yesterday won a copy of 'Bridge to Terabithia' on DVD worth £11.00

    So complete total of latest wins is £83.94.

    My comping challenge was £360.00 / total in wins is £366.18

    So completed challenge with a little over and 1 month still to go :)

    I only started doing competitions at the begining of this month, I never thought I'd get anywhere near enough to cover the cost of my broadband £24.99 a month (£299.88 total for the year) but I've managed it already and shot over the top, £25 of vouchers, £17 calender and book, £8 perfume and the photo frame I'm not sure about as I cant find a comparison for it but the one that put me over was the spa break, when I checked the site, £240 pppn and it's for 2 of us!

    I make it £530 in wins so I'm up £230 already in a few weeks!

    Thank you very much to everyone on here that puts the competitions up it really is very appreciated :D
