    I can only comp half the year so I really notice the difference.

    But when I'm home I average min 3 prizes per week (but I aim to enter 1000 comps per week so not that amazing really).

    However, I love the ones when I leave home and then suddenly I receive a wem when I've not entered a comp for a few weeks but due to closing dates etc?

    I just love comping and all the fab people I've met. :D

  • It really does vary - some months I can have almost a win every day - other months NADA

    This month so far I've had 1 little win and that's it.

    All down to luck - just keep entering as many as you are able and hopefully you'll soon be winning.
    Not really comping any more as too ill - but hoping to win £1000+ in 2017 in cash prizes - watch this space!

    I have been comping every day for 3 years and only had 1 win and that was August 2010 , I won £50 shopping vouchers from take a break .

    I dont know what I am doing wrong :cool: I feel very disheartened looking at all the wonderful wins you have all had , but as they say you have got to be in it to win it lol

    I've been comping and entering hundreds upon hundreds of comps for about two years, and I've not won a single thing! So when people say they only get one or two a month, I think 'waaaa?!' Don't get me wrong, this has only made me more determined than ever =D

    I average about 2 a month, Had 2 wins yesterday so I guess that's my wins for March! I get disheartened if I haven't won in a while, but then a win turns up and it's the best feeling ever, even if it's just a mascara or something.
    I know I could never give up on comping now, it's fun, and there's nothing else I would be doing so it's a great hobby and a way to fill my time!
