Less than £1 per hour & loving it ! ..........

Eureka !!!!! ....... I have found the perfect addiction...... & I get paid for it (Sort of :p)

I started comping at the beginning of June & do between 10 & 12 hours a day (With occasional leg stretches!) :rotfl:

My prizes to date total about £990 (retail) But that's what I would pay anyway :o Right? so it all counts :p

But most importantly the feeling of winning & you never know whats next.....is amazing ;)

Its better than all the other stuff & I have tried most of the 'other stuff '
So a big thanks to all the competition contributors for making my life a little (well a lot actually) more fun!

Sorry if this sounds sad but I don't care :A 'cos i'm taking my grandaughter to a theme park soon with the tickets I won & that is something I might not have done otherwise & it is priceless!:j:j:j:j

  • Aww that's so lovely :A I wish I could comp as a full time job because as sad as I may seem I really love it! It's an amazing hobby and something I actually really enjoy. I hope you enjoy your trip to the theme park :T :) and hope lots more wins come your way so you might be able to say £2 an hour :rotfl:

    The funny thing is, I think my first few weeks were ...Riddled with mistakes :o and wasted time.

    Now I am 'picking up speed' with the ones that I entered in the beginning coming to an end date (If you see what I mean!) :cool:

    I have also spent some time learning how to post comps & some more time learning some of the other stuff (Like how to PM BGs for Merges etc)
    But I am loving it :j :j :j
