Was sitting here analysing as you do and it occurred to me that since joining this great comping community 18 months ago, I have yet to win an electrical appliance.
I have been extremely lucky and am certainly not complaining, but find it strange that this has alluded me as yet.
What has alluded you and is there a reason ? just find it strange that's all.

I have won a washing machine, 2 soup makers, steamer, hair dryer and straighteners in the last 12 months. It is strange though how different peeps seem to win different groups of things.
Good luck with your comping and hope you win something electrical soon.BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS0 -

Hope thats not true as I've been winning teabags and chocolate! I can only drink so much tea and i'm now on a diet. So yes before anyone says anything I have now stopped going in for competitions for tea and chocolates and have also now stopped winning!

Sorry you have been winning tea bags etc. It seems to go in fazes I think, you seem to win lots of things then nothing for ages. I was not trying to rub salt in the wound as it must be awful to spend ages doing them and then get nothing back but I am sure if you keep at it things will change for you soon. Thing is not to give up.
Sending you lots of luck and fairy dust.BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS0 -
It is strange how this comping works but eternally grateful for any win really. Best of luck to you all and many more wins no matter what.
many thank's yo all posters.0 -
I've been entering comps for about 7 years and I am so very, very lucky as I have won numerous electrical items (including three xbox 360's, a big American Fridge Freezer, two iPad Mini's, smart TV, MacBook Air, numerous mobile phones, blu-ray player, Kindle, ipod, Nintendo DS, hair curlers, GHD hair straighteners, two DAB Radios and more)
...however the one prize that eludes me is, I have yet to win a holiday (although I have been fortunate to have won a couple short breaks in the UK).....gawd I could really do with a holiday too (comping fairy I hope you're paying attention)! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::T*Thanks to all who posts comps * :j0 -
I did win 3 days to Paris via Eurostar once but had to pretend to like Rugby to get it and attend a Rugby cup final. Actually was surprised to enjoy it and in the VIP area sat directly in front of the French Prime Minister. Tasted caviar for the first time which was disgusting and drank champagne which I have never liked lol Think I'm still a vodka and cheese on crackers kinda gal. Its hard to get a holiday that fits my family now as its just myself and my 17 year old at home and most family holiday is 2 adults and 2 kids but would love to win a 7 day holiday for the two of us to somewhere by train or boat. Won't get on a plane. Don't think I can flap my arms for very long
August-September 2017: Lots of stuff
