Number of entries into competitions

Marg2k8

I have read a couple of threads today about the number of entries into competitions.

One was for the huge number of entries into the ITV competitions. Another mentioned the daily competition to win a pack of batteries. I thought it might be interesting to have a thread dedicated to listing the number of entries that a particular competition had. So if for example you have had a WEM that states that you have been selected out of 3957 entries to win a pushchair for example, would you mind listing the brief details here, so that we can all see.

I won Extractor Fans with Quiet Mark - I was told I was selected out of over 7000+ entries.

There were up to 6 things you could choosefrom so I am unsure as to that was for that particular 'Prize' of for the competition altogether.

I won a coffee machine which required 5000 entries to click like before a winner was picked, (After the 5000 clicked, a new prize was unlocked.) The machine was worth £500 (so I assume 1 in 5000 chance.)

Another lady contacted me after I won a necklace from a magazine (Postal competition) she said there was over 1000 entries and an extra 150 people had the answer wrong - and some didnt even give an answer!!

I have won from blog comps, really good prizes too where there has only been 150/200 overall entries.

Id love to see the coke cola data for the competitions you pay 2 points to enter, I estimate the chances are one in hundreds of thousands.

A rafflecopter competition that has just finished for a Lucille teal Denby dinner set for four had 5262 entries. But with these rafflecopter competitions, I reckon the average person entering probably had around 10 entries or more.

Dorset Cereals run a monthly competition, you get one entry for each token you earn over the month.

Dorset Cereals pledge that for every 2,500 tokens collected, we'll plant a tree with our friends at the Woodland Trust. We're aiming to plant up to 200 each month

200 trees covers 500,000 entries a month

(so far this month 34 trees = 85,000 entries)
