General Comping Question Please

Hi newbie here so got a general question if that's allright. With some comps like for example Marie Claire or Womans Own ones you have to answer a question and then go through some adds which give you the option to click "not interested" in whatever they are trying to offer you. I always click not interested. Is it still possible to win even if you don't want anything that is being offered? Thanks to anyone who reads and answers. Have a lovely day, Agnes

    It's possible, I've won a couple of times and always say no. Good Luck :)

    I'm with BarnabySue and Firefly. I always tick no for these ads with the magazine comps and have won a few times with them now :D
    I am brave, I am bruised
    I am who I'm meant to be
    I'm not scared to be seen
    I make no apology
    THIS IS ME!


    When you talk down to others it says more about you than them.

    I haven't won yet with them but I am sure it's rather down to my own luck than not selecting to take them up on their offers.

    Hi
    If you want a quick way of filling in the "No, No Thanks" buttons with one click using Roboform check this thread.

    It'll save you a fair bit of time if you do a lot of these types of dailies.

    I enter them every day - not won yet - I believe my time will come.
