Only a Few wins!!

Options
I started comping last October and have had 3 wins, two quite small ones. I have been doing them on prize finder and like the way I can keep track of the comps. I must be doing about 60 a day so I work hard on it. I wondered if I might not be subscribing to the emails or something.

    It's just all down to the luck of the draw I'm afraid. I've been at this for about six months now, entering round 100 a day. For the first 3 months I had no wins whatsoever. Then I had a decentish November with about 5 small to medium prizes. Since then, pretty much back to nothing again (other than "win one of 1000 or 10000 items" giveaways which to me isn't really luck). I don't think it's anything to do with not subscribing to the newsletters - I thought that at first, and ticked for all the publicity - but 1) I still never won nothing and 2) people on here reported that they still got just as many wins without saying yes to newsletters. So since then I've avoided subscribing, but I don't think it makes any difference.

    I keep telling myself that a big win is around the corner..... we can only hope hey! As I always put on posts like this, you can't win unless you enter, so I just keep on and have a bit of fun doing it!

    Hope your (and my!) luck changes soon xxxx

  • We all go through dry spells, I went 9 months without winning anything. Something you win big, sometimes you win small and sometimes you don't win at all. LOL

    In November, I entered a few competitions a day as was still at work (now on maternity leave), won an Xbox but in December and January I was entering more than a 100 a day and it won a few small bits in December and won one thing in January. It is all about luck. Just keep entering and I'm sure you'll win something soon.
