Hi all,
Have been comping for ages with a few little wins.
I really really need to win a Holiday for my family. I have never been on holiday with my partner of 5 years and am at that point where a break is so badly needed. for me my partner and my 2 children.
If any of you have any tips to win a Holiday, please please share
Thx Ian

Just keep entering that's all you can do. People win holidays all the time (I never have but I won't give up hope):)
Fingers crossed for you x“Pour yourself a drink, put on some lipstick, and pull yourself together.” Elizabeth Taylor0 -
I have been entering competitions on and off for about 30 years, but have yet to win a holiday. The big prizes are very few and far between, but you have to be in it to win it.0

Im sure you already are but enter the cash comps too, then you could always pay for a holiday of your own choosing. Also some people are lazy (me included) so if its an effort comp like poems or telling them reasons why you deserve it etc go for those too, best of luck xWin Totals 2013 £3331 / 2014 £4815 / 2015 £3067 / 2016 £5617 / 2017-2023 £4106 / 2024 £2500 OVER £23K!!0

It all comes down to luck and how much time you put into it, I've been comping since August last year, spending at least 1 hour every day comping and I'm lucky enough to be heading to Florida on Saturday.
Also, if it doesn't bother you, then also enter for stuff you don't want yourself to sell on and use that to pay for a holiday.0 -
Also, look for competitions that require some kind of effort as there will be less entries. You may think that you are not very good at these comps but keep doing them and you'll get better0

I've been comping a little over 2 years and have won 2 holidays abroad.Neither required any effort.Just keep at it entering every holiday competition you can find, it's only luck.0

No tips other than keep entering competitions.
I've won one holiday after comping properly for a year or two. Would love to win one again this year.
Some people comp for years and are yet to have that holiday win.
Others win holiday comps and then realise they can't actually afford to go (if it's not an all inclusive holiday.)
All the best
