How many competitions do you enter?

  • At the moment I'm up to the 28th, but that's because some days this month only have 1-2 pages of comps. I'm hoping to keep that far ahead and then comp by start time so I don't miss any in the meantime, but I'm sure the end of the month will mess that plan up, like it always does!

    [quote=[Deleted User];58680149]Can I ask where you find all those twitter comps please? Is there a list somewhere? Thanks :)[/QUOTE]

    On twitter... I search WIN, COMP, #giveaway ... Various words linking to things to do with competitions

    I follow major brands and local boutique shops as well as a few bloggers.

    I spend the majority of my day (Sadly unemployed...) Doing twitter comps, interacting with companies and searching.

    There are sites such as Twitnija and things like that but, I prefer to search things out for myself.

    I'll also do searches for things I want to win, such as vouchers or an ipad.

    Follow compers and you can find people on the twitter names board :)

    Hope that helps a bit. xxx

    Thursday is a slow day and Ive done 67 today. So there's loads out there. xx

  • Thanks nelie, that does help a lot! I've got a few avenues to investigate now, hopefully a twitter win will find me at last!

    I'd say about 50 a day. :j
  • i enter close to or just over 200 per day, thats including the dailies
  • I am new to all this but it took me a snow day to enter ~100 comps.

    Just wondering how people enter 100+ in just a couple of hours?

    I have read about the autoform filling etc but I still can't get my head around how it is possible to enter so many in such a short time!

    :)
  • Chrome autofill saves a lot of time ;-)

    I am a newbie (so forgive me if this a stupid question...) I am trying to figure out how many comps I enter a day. I only do 'light comping' so it's around 20-30 maybe. How can I find out exactly how many I enter? Is there a button or a way other than going through all the green ticks and counting them?
    A lot of you say you enter 100s a day, how do you know? do you count them all?? or do you just write them done as you enter?
  • Some people just count as they go. Im really sad and have a spreadsheet with all the comps I enter on. I enter all my dailies/weeklies/instants (usually anywhere between 70-90) and I aim to enter another 50 new comps a day. So altogether thats 120-140 a day for me. HTH.
    Current Aims: Laptop/PC, decent money, holiday

    Big thanks to all who post comps :T:beer:

    I have one of those 'counter clicker' thingies and just click that every time I've entered a comp so it counts for me.
    I'm not obsessed with how many I enter (honest!) it's just nice to see how many I've entered a day :)
