Overwhelmed with competitions

I've been entering competitions now for 2 years.
However, this year, from around May time I've been struggling to keep up with all the competitions I want to enter.
It seems like there are so many more than usual - especially EOM.
I don't do the mag dailies and I don't bother entering more than once for things.
Is anyone else feeling like me?! :O xx

I agree with the EOM - I managed about 10 pages after work and that was it. Going to have to start earlier in the month
I too don't do mag ailies anymore - I would if I didn't have to tick all those bloody boxes! :rotfl:0 -
Yep!!! My husband has been redoing the garden and I've had to help so have had a lot less time than normal to comp as well, but real life comes first (so he keeps telling me) so some comps will have to pass me by.Luck is believing you’re lucky – Tennessee Williams

I felt that way in February when my life got a lot busier than usual so since then I mostly just do the comps I really want to win when I'm busy and more when I have more time. Also I've abandoned trying to keep up with EOM and just do searches for ITV/holidays/other desirables and just do those.
You can't let it rule your life
May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx0 -
I have never had enough time to enter all those that I would like to.0

I agree, it can be overwhelming. I am an end date comper as well but do try to get ahead before the month ends.
One site I use daily or if short of time is
http://www.competitorscompanion.com/
This has a short list of the 'high value' comps (holidays, tech, cash etc) that are ending that day. It is free to join but no answers given.
This is no substitute to the MSE comp forum and probably won't have any comps that are not on here but you can cross check back to MSE for the answers (if needed) and click your thanks and entered to keep track?
It does 'filter' the more important comps so you do feel you have had a stab at the main ones for that day?
Hope that helps. I don't think I am committing heresy because the site has been cited on here by others.
