You know you're a comping addict when.....

.....you seriously underestimate how many comps you enter weekly and people are still shocked.

Non-comping mate: so how many do you enter in a day to win stuff?
Hoogervaaner: oh, about 10 maybe 20 at the weekend.
non-comping mate: OMG, that's tons how do you keep it up?!
Hoogervaaner: oh, you know, dedication and stuff (thinking, holy hell, thank goodness I didn't tell you the truth!!!)

Please do join with your own comping addict tales. Sorry if in wrong place, local publican had beer sale for regulars :beer:
:D

  • When you go YES! because you realize you're already signed up for a site you need to log-in to enter a comp on.

    I did this earlier and it's the next best feeling to getting a win :rotfl:

    May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx
  • when you say to yourself 'you're not eating till youve finished these comps'

    when comping stops for no one and nothing, including doing comps when chatting on the phone

    when you have to watch a program/film on +1 because you forgot to watch it because you were too busy comping
