  • Mine was a Kindle in the Quidco daily competition back in November. I had never been one for entering comps but happened to be on the page and thought I would give it a go. I can't believe I won from my first ever entry but needless to say, it got me hooked and here I am ;)

    That's just the internet one though.I'd won via local supermarkets & not forgetting the meat hamper in the local WMC in the 80's :-)

  • My first win was a video about African animals when I was eight, I then won some denim jodhpurs when I was 12 :D
    What started my comping interest as an adult was a £500 win on a snack-a-jacks promotion about 5 years ago :)
