    ooh we are all getting excited by this thread :rotfl:

    I use my name on all comps, unless it's for under 16's.

    Have a hug Dalkirst if you are feeling neglected :grouphug: (however i always think those smileys are doing more than hugging :p:o so don't often use it)

    I started entering competitions on 9th July and to date have won nothing - not even an instant win. I live in hope though. I only enter prizes that I can use, sell or give away. I enter as many as possible per day, at the moment I am fully up to date with the comps on here. I have just downloaded Roboform and love it!
    I started the same day and haven't won anything yet either,(except some downloads but forgot to claim) I live in hope too and am also entering only those that I or my friends and family would use (mostly a laptop and holiday for my sister). I have also just downloaded Roboform and it makes life easier and means I spend more time studying as I should be doing. Spooky or what! I just need to work out how to do the info below the line bit so am searching for clues at the moment for when I do win!
    If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours :smiley:

    Thank you to everyone who posts. :A

    Just thought I'd let peeps know I'm off on hols tomorrow to France so will be offline for about 10 days. If anyone wants to check for the regular comps I post, here are the main links I browse:-

    http://www.thesun.co.uk/section/0,,2001310005,00.html (Updated around midday Monday, though smaller comps can be added later in the week)

    http://www.mirror.co.uk/showbiz/competitions/ (updated 2/3 times a week on different days)

    http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/competitions/ (updated in fits & starts, nb check whether same comps have been posted by others from Viewlondon or Evening standard)

    http://www.metro.co.uk/gimme (daily, though plenty of other MSRs check this as well)

    http://www.thelondonpaper.com/cs/Satellite/london/competition (updated Mon - fri, sometimes only 1 comp, sometimes 3 or 4, nb London based gigs, sports & shows rarely include travel or accom)

    http://www.sgrfm.co.uk/sectional.asp?id=13107 (updated in fits & starts, nb check whether comps are East Anglia/ ipswich specific)

    http://www.radiotimes.com/competitions/ (updated bi-weekly. Takes a couple of minutes to find all the answers though other MSRs check website this as well)

    http://competition.play.com/Competition_Popup.asp?id=494 (nb need to change last digit of address to "5", "6" etc, as this is the most recent comp. Updated in fits & starts, sometimes 4 in a day, sometimes once a fortnight)

    http://www.chortle.co.uk/ (updated about once a fortnight though other MSrs check regularly)
    From MSE Martin - Some General Tips On Holiday Home Organisations and Sales Meetings

    DO NOT TOUCH ANY OF THEM WITH A BARGEPOLE!

  • Lol expected this thread to be full of rudey dudey type comments :eek: :o :rotfl:

    I enter them all in my own name but having said that I've not won anything from the likes of Zoo, FHM, Nuts, etc yet.
    Just started entering my blokey's details for comps too but only ones where they just want your email addy as he doesn't like me giving his details out to the whole world!! I enter him into girlie comps too so double the chance of winning ME a prize :D Also enter under 16s comps but in my nephews name and no luck their either yet.
