Becoming disheartened

I would change the facebook name - any name with mse in the title is almost 100% going to be a second account (which is against facebook t&cs) and it's not unknown for people to report winning second accounts.

The wins always come when you least expect them.

I like you hadn't won anything since December (a couple of small advent ones) but that just made me more determined to win.

Then suddenly I won 4 comps last week and 4 this week!

Just keep going and wait for those wins, I'm sure you'll have some soon.

Good Luck

Just to say the only thing I've won is a plastic bag with a picture on it, which broke within 5 days. I have done up to 150 comps a day in Feb, which was 6 hours at a time until I installed Roboform.
Someone gave me some advice about focusing, having a noticeboard with affirmations on it and picture of what you WILL win. You could try that as she's winning bucket loads, but I still haven't.

I guess if there was a "I've not won" thread, that would definitely be the largest on the forum and would show you you are not alone !!

I am going to carry on comping until the weather improves and then I will probably give up and look for some sort of job that fits round my family life and my volunteer work.

Hi, i am fairly new to MSE but have been comping like a mad woman since last June. So far all i have won is a product from the Tropical Sun Vending machine, which i have not recieved. However, i am always happy for those that do win, and i just Know that my first win is just around the corner..... Well probably. Every time i read about someone winning it spurs me on to try harder. I used to do the dailies twice a week, but i am now doing them every day. I dont enter facebook or twitter comps, but there are still plenty of comps on here to keep me busy. Its great being part of a comping community, and i am very grateful to the people who post the comps. Dont feel disheartened, just keep going.

I agree with all of what renegadia says
Also try freebie hunting, I have had some excellent freebies, (Perfume & skincare wipes today)
We all lose heart at times, Just think you gotta be in it to win it

not everyone wins all the time i won something within a month of comping last year then nothing for 6 months u cant expect a win every week/day

Maybe we need to do a winning prize dance to the comping fairy/god.

Like tribes do to the rain gods to bring the rain. *dances*

Hope that works!

Just keep going, just keep going, it will come eventually! x

I haven't won anything for ages - not even a fridge magnet

But I do enjoy doing the comps

I'm waiting for the Postie to bring me something nice in a surprise packet, it's something to look forward to whilst I'm comping

Just keep trying and one day you never know !

I know this sounds daft but do you end date comp? - I always seem to win more when i do as I miss less (ie I'm entering ones closing soon rather than in a months time )

I was feeling pretty rotten as all I'd won this month is 3 books, a set of children's books, a gardening set & a £5 amazon voucher. Just wonder if
I'd carry on if I won nothing for months on end

please can someone explain to a novice what is roboform and how it works.
