For me it's not so much what eludes me, as tons of items/categories do that
But nearly all my wins are either alcohol (Hic!), chocolate (Burp!) or pet stuff (grateful licks). Yet I go in for tons of other things too.
Blu XI am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apology
THIS IS ME!

I've won like beauty stuff pretty regularly so far such as fake tan, moisturisers, conditioners etc but the stuff i really want is an ipad or kindle fire .Ahh well im grateful for my wins but fingers crossed for bigger things!:j:j:j0

I have been comping for over 30 years on and off. In that time, I have won lots of electrical items, such as washing machine, DAB radio and hair straighteners, but the one thing I have never won, but would love to win is a holiday.0

I've still yet to win an electrical appliance. Must be my turn soon! Also some shopping vouchers would be nice.
Although I'm happy for any win!

Hmm. I've never won alcohol.
My very first win was a 7 night all inclusive fly drive to Canada for hubby and myself - I nearly missed it as I missed the email and they sent a letter saying 'don't you want this holiday?'. I nearly passed out from shock and excitement, let me tell you
MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOUR0 -
Yes it is strange. I seem to attract cameras. Think I have won about 5 in the last couple of years including one very good one

My very first win when I first started comping in 2004 was a Washing Machine and ever since I got that LWE from Hotpoint I have been inspired
I read about people who have won a few TVs yet that is one prize that has always evaded me!! Likewise Ipads.
I will keep plodding on!The best things in life are free.....0 -
Don't think I have been back long enough to analyse my current wins but in the past when I comped seriously for a number of years, I never ever won a holiday:(.
Would love to go to New York for a short break but can't justify the cost of flight tickets so I'm hoping to win one some day;)0 -
would love to win a holiday or a car high hopes i know!What goes around-comes around0
