Just don't give up and keep going, I'd won nothing for a whole year and couldn't understand why, put it down to more people entering, cheaters etc but I've just won an ipad3 from The Times competition on Sunday and looking at the I won!I won!I won! board I'm not the only one from here, two others up to now!!!

Well done wonderwallet, been doing the Times comps religiously...

At the end of the day its down to luck and you got it.

Enjoy your new iPad3. :j:j:j

So to anyone who lurked and 'followed' mine and others advice, sorry you aint won a laptop,...
''Sometimes good advice, can be bad advice''

I'll post up tomorrow with another set of totally wrong ideas though for anyone else like me who doesnt want to win a laptop lol:rotfl:

Lurked and followed? For all of a month?

Luckily many people have managed to win some great prizes (over a long and prolonged period of consistently entering comps, instead of talking gobbledygook) before you came along with your words of wisdom a month ago.

But I shall be sure to check out your ideas tomorrow. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I have zero luck on the hourly comps, So I tend to do it when I can throughout the day. I only totally missed this Sunday as I was on my honeymoon!

I started comping last week and I won a London trip to see the Devil Inside and £400 spending money. So I think I've got the bug now I want to win so more.
Good Luck I hope you win something soon, I'm hoping to win some money so I can save because I want to go travelling.

Well, today I found out I came a runner-up in something-there's no prize for it, just a sense of "you were thiiiis close, oh well", argh! I think I'd rather have not known, lol.

Most of my wins have been for the 'win 1 of 100' type comps, but last year I won a trip to San Diego (waiting to go this July). Although I keep comping, doing about 50 a day, I doubt I'll win something like a holiday again.

I always feel perked up by the 'post a picture of your win' thread and it motivates me, when I start feeling pessimistic.

I don't begrudge the people who seem to win several times a week, every week, but I have to be honest and say I don't understand how that happens. However, if the price of those wins is doing 500 comps a day for hours on end, then it's not for me - I've got a job, a family and a life to be getting on with!

Very best of luck!

my hope is slipping again, shame after such a good start to march, was thinking it was going to be a epic month but nope, wins have dried up again
