    This is my first year of doing advents, I won the La Senza one, a St. tropez goody bag. Not actually got it yet as they said allow up to 2 weeks for it to be delivered!

    Nothing here yet, but we're only a few days in and i'm sure some won't even contact winners til next year anyway. Good luck all :)

  • Yeah, think it's best to remember its only just the second week of the advents, and it's just for fun!

    I think I've got my head around entering about 300 comps a day now, found the best order for me to enter them and even had a bit of spare time to catch up with any I might'e missed finishing in the next few days.

    Good luck everyone (and thanks for such a large response to a thread I started, it's kept me happy and cheerful) :)
    Thank you, to all those who make the comps forum, what it is.

    Won absolutely nothing despite entering every day - becoming a bit jaded so hope the comping fairy will sprinkle me soon and get my mojo back up and running!!!
  • I was just telling my OH I hadn't won anything yesterday morning when a pair of earrings arrived in the post from the secretsales FB comp - I didn't even know I'd won!
    Silence is golden...unless you have a toddler. In that case silence is very, very suspicious!

    I was going to post on here yesterday to say I hadn't won any advents yet (and this is my second year doing them - nothing last year), but about half an hour later I discovered I'd won some sweets on the freestuff fb advent. They haven't notified me yet, but announced my name on their wall. I've only been doing 70 advents a day, but now I'm nearly caught up on the main board comps (restarted comping in mid-November), I'll probably add in some more.

    I won the 11th prize in the Tkmaxx advent. A Kenneth Cole gold coloured watch.. really chuffed. First win in bloody ages :D
  • I won my first advent comp today, it was day 2 of the hobgoblin giveaway. I won a t-shirt, christmas cards and bottle opener. First win in ages and first ever advent win :)
