What comps DONT you enter and why?

Elitewicked

I don't enter any facebook like and share comps - I do not want to spam my friends and family with endless photos.

Always skip wedding comps and baby/pre-school children ones, win a blu-ray film (don't have a blue-ray player), any where a location win is too far away to travel and any where I have to log-in or register.

I don't enter everything and anything, I also only tend to enter comps where the prize is something I or my family could use, and I am put off by competitions that require me to fill in endless questions/surveys as this often results in email spam and sometimes unwanted phone calls.

I don't enter comps where there are questionnaire's about things I have no idea about (i.e. just putting random answers) ... don't think it's fair.

Also, no DVD's - my media is all digital dahhhling, no tickets to things I have no interest in (and don't think any of my fam/friends will either),

Tickets as i don't really want to go anywhere - unless its a festival and everything is included inc VIP camping... :P

Horse/Fishing things as theres no one I know with these interests.

However, everything else is pretty much entered. I have friends who are pregnant/ have small children. I know people getting married. I'm moving out soon/have collections for my own place.

I have stopped like and share unless its very low entry and/or requires something else to win - as in a funny comment

Wedding related prizes that can only be used if you are actually getting married, e.g. wedding dresses.
Email entry competitions for single dvds or books.

Any specific hobby ones like fishing, horse or craft comps.

Meet and greets.
Anything sports related.
Short hotel stays that are too far from home to warrant the travel.

Rafflecopter, blog and Facebook comps - unless it's a prize I really, really want and easy to enter (usually enter about 2 a month)
Wedding prizes - Already married
Newborn baby stuff - sadly my daughter and nephews are all too old for this now.
Foreign holidays - unless they are to France or Euro Disney (!)
Tickets to gigs or music festivals - I'm too old for all that malarkey
"Experiences" like flying in a helicopter or rally driving - ditto above
Meet and greets with celebrities - I would rather a fan win those sort of prizes
Also anything from specialist websites (ie Jewish/Gay/Adult websites)
