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!

Weird how it goes, 80%+ of my wins are instant. (FB mostly) Weirdly I've won more than once on the same instant. (Not Dorset + most web ones)

Can't strike a biggie (more than £200)

Ecover FB 1st September and nowt since:eek:

Only a razor for me since July 5th, but at least the odd tesco glitch keeps a smile on my face

I've managed a win a month since starting but I expected so much more. I don't think I'm being greedy, it's just that I enter thousands a month and I thought I would have got more back from it. I've not won anything since my Asda win last month. Maybe it's because I don't do the rafflecopters and the twitter comps and don't always do the dailies.

Glamourpuss looking at your signature I would say you have done very well as a newbie, it can take a long time - thats why a lot stop- and can be very stop start in terms of prizes

To the OP, I spent two years without a big win and not many small ones then in 18 months I won a Las Vegas Holiday, LA holiday, 2 x Centre parcs holidays, £500 in vouchers etc

Then this year up until September it has been slower again

It really does depend. Personally i don't bother with the daily mags etc as I think they take too long and focus more on the main board

lol, the comping fairy has been at work.

4 hours after my post yesterday (at 10.30pm never had a WEM at this time of night) I received an email to say I've won 2 tickets to the opera from a competition I posted.


Hopefully the comping fairy will make more visits to others today

Ok, I'll admit it. IT'S ME. I've been winning all the prizes. And eating all the pies too

Well, perhaps not quite ALL the prizes, but I've had a fab few weeks. Won 5 prizes over the last 4 weeks ish. 4 of them what I think of as good'ns - not huge, but defo not small. Then yesterday I won a small but nice prize, a tee shirt on an instant.

So it's all MY fault :j:o:j:o:j

I think comping has become much more popular so people aren't winning as much as they used to.

I haven't done too badly just recently though. A couple of weeks ago I won a travel cot, then picked as a rimmel foundation reviewer...which lead to me winning a rimmel goodie bag. I also won a MAM dummy (for my baby. Not me ). Then a couple of days ago I won 10,000 nectar points

Thanks all, and good luck and lot's of winning fairy dust for you all, won't give up yet, especially as have had to rush our cat to the vets twice in the last 2 days, and come home over £100 lighter, only to find out it was a different vet who told us he was to fat and to put him on a special dry food diet, and it turns out it's that that has caused problems with his bladder, and am now trying to get him to take his medication, so a little money win would be prefect just about now, as have had to dip into our holiday funds and we go in just over 3 weeks
