I didn't win but...

Thanks to a comp posted by laks to win tickets to Comic Con Cardiff I thought I'd go anyway and it was really good! Completely bizarre and lots of funky smelling teenagers (and older) who need a good wash, but I saw a few celebs and bought some bits and bobs.
I love comping, even if you don't win you get to hear about new things to try.
Thanks Laks :)

    Sounds like you had a fun night!

    It's very true about the 'new things'....with me it's granola - it may sound daft but I had never had it until about a fortnight ago, entered a comp (it's a daily I think), kept thinking "oooh I love berries", so bought some.

    It's delicious!

    Oooh yes Granola is yummy, I bought the marmalade one after doing the Dorset daily and failing every time!
    Stella Pear Cidre is another one, had to try that! :)

    I'm the same - you hear about events and you try and win tickets, but if you don't win... you still go! There was also a bracelet competition with Daisy Green the other day - I loved it so much I went to the original website and bought lots of stuff! :rotfl:
