I kept count last week for the first time ever, it was just over 60 per day. Hardly anything compared to some but I don't have much more time to enter a lot more each day.I just enter and forget...hoping to win something!0

It all comes down to luck.... you could enter 9k and still not win! Some enter a handful and do! Its just one of those things. Your time will come, you just have to keep at it.
Most people enter for fun, its a hobby or something to do to pass a little time... As much as I love winning, I also enjoy entering them and thats why I have been doing it for as long as I have!

Just because you enter a lot is not by any means a guarantee of winning anything.
You're up against statistics and odds, and to be honest the odds are stacked against you due to the sheer number of other entrants. You need to use the enter and forget method.
You could be comping for 10 years and enter a million comps and not win anything (not even a fish slice!) or you could enter only one comp in your life and win the prize of your dreams so its all about luck.
If you win, great! If you don't, on to the next comp! Comping is not an easy hobby (well not as easy and fruitful as the media make it out to be) you've just got to stick with it and hopefully persistence will pay off eventually.0 -
Also don't forget that some of those comps will not have closed yet. It then takes up to 28 days to receive the prizes.
Good luck and keep entering.0 -

Dear Lord after a million comps I would hope law of averages would kick in :rotfl:Ha would give up on the lotto as well x0
