    Eighth Anniversary Combo Breaker
    speaking as someone who`s naturally "gifted" at being unlucky ive been entering 100`s of comps for ages and wins have been few and far between to say the least! what is easy to forget tho is that some of the comps prizes can be sent weeks after the end date as sometimes other companies are involved. obviously it depends in how you enter comps, i myself enter ones ending soon but i also enter comps that dont finish for a while yet. just gotta stick at it, you will get fed up at times as i do too but as they say you gotta be in it to win it! i`d wish you all luck but it would probably just put a curse on you all or something!!......

    Don't give up, it will happen when you least expect. I've been entering for over 2 years and had my first win in January, an engraved iPad. It's funny as I entered it without any intention of winning, I was just bored at the time! Keep at it and the wins will come your way :)
