Do I have to wait for a win? I've been entering so many competitions both from here and the other website and not having any luck whatsoever, it's been a month now and I'd love even a little win to keep me motivated, I jump when my phone goes off!

    Some people don't win anything for months so be patient :)

    Also remember that some of the comps that you are entering wont have ended yet.
    Maybe comp by end date so if you do win you'll find out sooner.

    How many should you be entering?.... As many as you have time to enter.
    I enter between 50-200 a day depending on how much time I have.

    If you're entering comps from another site as well just be sure that you don't enter any of the same ones twice by accident as this will disqualify you from the comp.

    Good luck, I hope you get your first win soon.

    A month is no time at all, some of the comps you might have entered may not even have ended.

    You just have to be patient and enjoy entering and hoping as we all do.

    How long is a piece of string? :) You could be lucky and get a win tomorrow...or not. There is no certainty about it but it's the 'what if's' that keep me going. :) ('What if I get that big win?'...:))

    I was reading an article on people not winning & it often comes down to the comps you are doing - are they mainly for high value items? do they have captcha? it the answer to the first is yes & the second is no that will affect your chances & how many is a lot ? I do the mag dailies plus 100-300 every day - this month has been really bad for me as I've only won small items & not as many as I usually do

    What's the other website out of interest?

    Yes, I must admit, I was curious about which particular other website you use...
