    Good luck.It's a matter of luck.You could enter five comps & win them all or enter 200 per day for weeks on end.,as some do ,& win nothing
  • I have only been doing it a week and although I haven't won anything yet I am carrying on....Even if it takes a few months I will hopefully win something at some point! :)

    I just enter everything that takes my interest, I go through each page and try not to miss any and seem to enter quite a lot. The only things I would like to enter is the twitter competitions but I don't think they will ever pick me as I only have one follower!! I also avoid the facebook competitions as I don't want to annoy all my friends with so many likes...I'm sure this is where I would probably win more but you can't have it all I guess!!

    I find that just when you think nothings coming your way, a prize rolls up :o
    I get a buzz even from the smaller prizes,then when a big rolls in my face is beaming for days !

    hi all :)

    hi & welcome :)
    best way i think is just aim for the comps you want to win, not how many you can :) just a suggestion if it helps :)
    you might be better asking this on the comps discussion board
    here..
    General Discussion
    as this is realy the IWON IWON thread which is for posting which comps you've won from :)

    i started comping a weekago and have yet to win a thing but you must remember that some draws may not be for 4-12 weeks. im going to give it till Jan then see how it goes if nothing ill just give it up or win and get addicted. im going to try and enter 100 week ..

    good luck
  • welcome to what has to be the best site ever in my eyes :D

    i usually enter 100+ comps depending on how i feel, it took a few weeks from starting to win something but i love it all the same even if i dont win cause i find it something to do on an evening when the kids are in bed or when ive got a spare hour here and there :)

    some weeks you can win and then others you can be waiting weeks n weeks, this week since monday ive won 5 comps :) so very grateful for those.

    it can be very addictive when u get going lol, i was saying to my OH the other day that i cant believe i only found this site in may lol

    good luck with the comping and most of all have fun :D xxx
