Who's winning all the prizes??

It's not me, I've won one thing since the 5th June, and still waiting for a bit of that, I'm entering 100+ a day, a year or so ago I was luckily enough to maybe win a prize or 2 a week, I miss like dvd's turning up out of the blue, ect or a nice WEM, is it just me??

  • I am having a dry month, so it not me :) Hope you get lucky soon :)
  • I had a bad july and august but then this month i've won a few things. Even had a day where I won 2 prizes which has never happened before. It really is the luck of the draw.

    I wouldn't dwell on it too much. Your day will soon come!
  • Defiantly not me! apart from some weetabix today.

    Cannot seem to grab a win. I have been entering hundreds a day!

    Not me - I've won a pack of pens since mid-july and nothing over a month (to be fair I was really happy with the pens as I had nearly bought a new pretty pen a couple of days before and decided not to waste the money).

    I've now decided to cut down on entering comps and be more selective - the way things are at the mo' it won't cut down on my wins (or indeed my hopes of winning) but will cut down the amount of time I spend comping.

    Hope the comping fairy brings you all luck soon, great thing about comping is you never quite know what's round the corner...

    I got two parcels today (only little things, one was a kids comic and one was a tube of moisturiser). I felt like a proper comper! I have been fairly lucky since starting back properly in April but today was the first day I have had two things on the same day. So, sorry, it might be me winning all the prizes!

    If it's any consolation, everytime I go on IWIWIW! I see people winning the things I really wanted - where is my Kindle/Ipad/5* London hotel? Who's got those?

    ETA - I have had the most luck with the magazine dailies this time round, definitely still worth doing.

    Thanks all, will keep going, I religiously do the mag dailys, takes me 2 hours with the other dailys, then spend hours doing the rest
  • I'm doing OK but all my wins this month have been tiny

  • I've done a bit better this year than last. But never had a 'big' win. And I was thinking yesterday that I have been comping for three years and have never won an instant comp even though I do loads!

    Last month I won a book- it arrived today.

    Got a small dallies win today, but otherwise August/September has been very very quiet.

    (Had been winning regularly since March.)

    I find wins are like buses, nothing for ages and then you'll have a few together.
    Good luck for the rest of the month :)
