How many compititions are the winners entering?

I average abvout 30-50 per day and am averaging one win per month. As I work full time and have 3 kids, I don't have the time to do any more. I don't have a Twitter account but do have a Facebook account so will do comps on Facebook if the prize appeals to me.
I have won some nice things, Monarch airline flights, Blackberry curve etc so am pleased with my prizes.
I do agree that its a numbers game though and of course luck plays a big part in it.
For me its about the anticipation of winning which keeps me plodding on.Thanks to all those who post competitions! Comping on and off since 2009
Nothing is so contagious as enthusiasm0 -
I enter about 200 a day. Including daily, weeklies, daily mags, blogs, twitter, facebook (not like and share ones though) and main board comps ending in 2 days time from that day. I also do a search for the month ending comps mid way through that month and bookmark them so I can spread out those entries over a week or two doing 50 or so a day of them.
I won 30 prizes in Nov, 24 in December and 17 in January. Only small value wins this year so far though nothing over £20 yet x
Best of luck to you
May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx0 -

I started entering comps in December, some days I enter a few but some days I go nuts and enter tons but have never win anything!
When you get an email saying you've won, does it usually say so in the subject? Just to save me opening them all- being lazy! Ha!0 -
Hi. Sorry I'm new at this. I was just wondering how many compititions are the people who are actually winning, entering per day.
Plus those like me who are not winning, how many are you guys entering per day too:rotfl:
Thanks in advance to all:)
I only enter for prizes I really want, so probably 50/day and I've had some amazing wins (multiple iPads, iPhone, TV, holidays). I aim for things like technology, holidays and big vouchers/cash prizes, as well as the occasional item I'm lusting after. :rotfl:
It really is a numbers game. My advice would be to just focus on prizes you would buy if you had the money (obv cash is a separate thing!)0 -
I enter just the ones that interest me for prizes that I want and think positive
I have had many big wins over the years including a home cinema system, vouchers, a Mulberrry Alexa bag and last month I won my first holiday :j:j Flying out with my daughter 31 March :T
I always enjoy competitions and last year I set myself a challenge to see if I could win one prize a week and I did ( many were small prizes but I love small prizes I find they keep me going until the next big win comes along) some weeks 4 or 5 prizes.
In December I did really well I won a prize every day up until 25th with the advents etc - 2 fab hampers, football tickets, Timex watch etc.:)
So keep going, you never know what is round the corner, the only time I would say give up is if you find comping a burden, no point doing it if you dont enjoy it.0 -

Often I have found that when I have won - it often says a persons name that has sent it, it is very rare to not spot a winning email - no matter how they are worded.0 -
I work full time so I only enter 30-50 comps a day, but it is still down to luck. I am not on twitter and like a few people I dont enter anything where you have to register for an account. Some of the comps on facebook are quite good because there can be 1000 prizes, particularly food related. I am averaging a win every 4/5 weeks so not too bad. You dont always get a wem, so it is quite exciting to get a package turn up out of the blue. Treat it as a hobby and try to enjoy the experience would be my advice.0

Probably about 100 per day on here and then 60/70 on twitter. Twitter takes up time during the day (while people are at work) and then on an evening I spend time entering things I really want to win!December Wins: £300 worth of board games, £500 Tesco Vouchers Best Win in 2023: £500 Tesco Vouchers0
