  • I don't have anything particular on my Xmas comping wish list just anything that I can give as extras to my 2 DDs. I've already won them a thing each to go in their santa sack. Any Xmas food would be nice to save money on the big shop xx

    May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx

    When I took this up as a serious hobby in August (as opposed to entering a couple of comps a day that were in email newsletters etc) my aim was to win a few decent Christmas pressies for my kids ( I was naively hoping for stuff like iPad, laptop, Xbox etc) but as the months have gone by I've lowered my sights significantly!
    So far everything I've won HAS been for Christmas - a few Maoam sweets and sweatbands to go in stockings, a book for my eldest DS, a £20 Argos voucher which I used to purchase a toy my youngest DS wanted, and my biggest win to date, a Christmas dinner for 8 - which will save my mum some money, as she does Christmas day!
    however I'm still living in hope that something lovely will turn up, even if it's some money to go Christmas shopping!!
  • I'm just planning a huge ITV win so we can ignore the chilly festivities in England and go to Jamaica... ok?
    Best wins: Luxury weekend in Russia, family holiday to France, catered BBQ for 20, Selfridges shopping spree, jolly to Majorca, £1,000 See Tickets vouchers, £500 John Lewis vouchers, five-star weekend in Provence!

    I won a hamper last Xmas, It would be nice to win another, but unlikely, so I would settle for a massive bundle of electronic goods instead. c.mon! :D

    Some cash would be wonderful.
    Every year I take part in a rabbit rescue secret santa (people send parcels to bunnies in rescues) and always wish I had about £200 to really treat each bunny to a gift but I never have any spare cash so if I won any before xmas that is what it would go towards :)

    For me I would love to win a spa break, could do with some pampering.
    Or a mobile phone because I've never had a fancy phone, mine have always been cheap little things that last me about 5 years!
