    On the days I am working I probably do about 50 - 100 a day - during weekends/holidays I can probably do in excess of 200
    :T*Thanks to all who posts comps * :j
  • I generally do between 100 and 200 most days, including dailies.

    I haven't won a sausage in months though

    After reading a few replys to people winning / faqs i noticed a few numbers being banded about for entries.

    How many Competitions do you enter a week?

    as i am starting off new i think i must of hit around the 400 mark in the 3 days, spent a good few hours but once i catch up i can slow down slightly?

  • At the moment I'm entering 100 daily comps (blogs, mags, other dailies) and then whatever I want to enter that ends in 2 days time which is usually between 50-100 (more at month end).

    So roughly 1050-1400 entries a week

    May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx

    you'll never catch up as comps are added faster than you can enter them!! I enter around 2000 a week -

    I've only been comping for a week so I've been adding up what I enter daily.
    The first couple of days I was entering 70-100 a day.
    And now I am entering 100-150 a day.

    It's very very addictive :D

    I have no idea, it varies with how much time I have and how many competitions there are that I wish to enter.

    Depends on the day. On twitter (mon, weds) about 50/60
    On a Friday about 70 isn.

    No longer do FB L+S UNLESS it's an iPad/pretty thing i really really want.

    It also depends on the day.... But I can average about 200. But, that's without dailies.
    I can enter about 50 an hour. about 4 hours on a night. :)

    So in total on a normal day 200. :) x

    Wait till you start winning things - then it gets even worse!

    I enter a few dailies, then the ending comps, usually about 2-3 days in advance, and I try to keep up with those posted that day as well. Probably about 200 a day in total.
