I enter on average 400+ a day (includes dailys, etc) would love to win big, as I am desperate to move back to near my family, been away from them for 5 years now, need about £3,000 to do it.
It is very very very frustrating to not win, and I don't begrudge anyone there wins!, just very jelous....lol
I enter the dailys and weeklys as well.
Definitely although like I said before you shouldn't be able to win again for a period of a year or so, I would not enter if I already won as I would give others a chance.No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

FF has removed her post by the looks of it, but I am sure she meant no harm by it, and said some not all x Really don't want this turning into any arguements, etc, just wanted to see what people thought, and Goblin I also said most not all newbies xx
I'm not a fighter! I was just saying......
There are some people that only ever enter the big ones (greedy things)
A friend of mine had a moan the other day, saying that all I do is enter competitions...... Actually, I am doing two seperate maths courses working towards a degree, have 3 kiddies, 1 doggy, (try to) keep my house tidy, as well as being a volunteer for my daughters' school. The only time I do get to enter comps is, as I said, in the evenings and weekends. And I enter anything - as long as I know someone who will be grateful to receive it.
(Just wish I could win a nice holiday so I could have a break) :rotfl:Thanks to all posters :A0 -

Good Luck in your courses, and good luck for a holiday win, that's one of the comps I don't enter, prefer to stay at home...lol0 -

I have a life as well, but the thought of winning big keeps me going as well as winning the little prizes keep me going, When I have a dry spell I lose heart. I would love to win a holiday. I noticed won person won 3 TV's, don't know how they do it I can't win one lolNo you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

Crikey the amount of effort that FF puts in so you and us all can have any chance in the comps that they post and you are moaning and taking offence at that?.....sheeesh!!!
I do note the amount of effort and time that people like FF and the like take to put up comps for us. If I could, I would do the same. It seems only in a blue moon that I find a comp no one else had put on. If you look at comps I enter, I thank every single one!! I also help where I can. I do feel bad when I have a win if I haven't been able to "help" on a comp for a while.
And, btw, I wasn't "moaning" as such, should really stop typing what I think, because it seems people take it the wrong way
EDIT: not going to make any more new posts lol.
@ Catmiaow - I have christmas almost sorted thanks to the little wins lol. And I know what you mean with the tvs. I'd be happy with a box at the moment lmaoThanks to all posters :A0 -

Oh good more chance for me to win a holiday :rotfl::rotfl:No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

I agree I find if I post comps someone else usually does and I didn't know about it, still some people give you hell for it. I have only posted a few comps as they always seem to be here already. People like Weeowens and Comping Cat(and everyone else who posts) deserve a medal for the time they give to post comps and I always thank all posters.No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

I'm quite offended by that firefly
Although I do try and put up comps if they haven't already been posted, I do spend alot of time on here entering comps. Soon as the kids are in bed I'm on here doing as many as I can until I feel sleepy. Today there's been loads, and I'm still doing them..... blooming end of the month!!!
But I do enter loads, I have had a few decent wins, still waiting for a big one. I honestly think it's all down to luck. Facebook & Twitter comps I'm slowly going off, because it does seem the same winners.
EDIT: I only use MSE for comps btw
no offence meant jaibaby,all i'm saying is it's some of them that are on here & other sites entering comps all day, not very often you see them post a comp or contribute any other way, either by requesting merges/or whatever, not that that's any of my business :rotfl:but
no wonder they always win all the time,
suppose we would if we were entering majority of the time or
most of the day :rotfl:please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly.0 -
Sorry you are not having a lucky time Ratgirl and hope things improve for you but isn't comping for fun? I spend a lot of time entering and am really grateful for all the posters. I know I haven't posted very many comps myself as they are always on already but I do try!
I hope everyone has a lucky August anyway. xMar Wins :- £2 GfK Media
