For some reason, reading the "I won! I won! I won!" threads really make me smile! Sounds daft but it's just really nice to know when people win something and to see how happy it makes them. I can't help myself but check the I won threads before I start my comping, I'm addicted!
If only we could bottle that 'opening the post and dawns on me I've won something' feeling.... Hope to be able to add a thread of my winning soon.
I'm fairly new to this site and just wanted to say a big thanks to all those who put comps up on this site, and also to those who put up the lengthy answers - much appreciated! :grouphug:

I was just thinking the same earlier. Its always nice to read wins and how happy everyone is.
I am sure you soon will add to thread:D0 -
I totally agree. I would have given up ages ago if it wasn't for reading about other peoples wins. It paid off, I had my first win (albeit a small one) this week. Good luck to everyone, here's to many more MSE wins :beer:0

Me too, I always look at the winners thread first, in fact sometimes If I'm short of time but can't resist logging on briefly this is the only thread I look at. I love seeing the different things people win. The range of stuff is amazing - and quite random!
Long may all the wins continue!MASSIVE THANKS TO ALL POSTERS!:happyhear0 -

I think most of us read this first then. Its great to see what others win (sometimes a little jelouse as it should be me!!!) but it makes you see its possible. I love to hear when people win with slogans as that takes a bit more skill. (no unfortunatly I am not skilled).
Still keep comping everyone and let us know of your wins.

Welcome GoldenJill! :wave: I love these threads too. I like to imagine what I'd do if I won some of these prizes, or who I'd share them with, especially the more random ones, like the 'years supply of...' ones.0

Me too!!!!
It really inspires me and makes you realise that it is possible to win these prizes because normal people do. Also I know this is mental but it makes me happy knowing that people I know have won the prizes even though I don't really know any of you, but msers deserve luck and prizes.!!!!!May 2015 £10 a day currently £2080 -
What a lovely thread Goldenjill, sentiments held by alot of people it seems.
Me included.
I love reading about others wins.
The small ones and the big ones.
I'm always amazed at how many competitions there are actually out there and this is such a fantastic place to come and enter them.
All hail the MSE competition gang!:beer:0 -
This makes me feel a lot better, I thought I was the only one who got cheered up by looking at what others have won - particularly has I have won nothing EVER!!!0
