    I have entered about 20-40 a day (weekdays only) for the past 12 months and usually win one thing each month.

    Not won anything worth more than £100 yet though.
  • It's been a while since i won anything, but i won Sandy Lyle signed hat and golf balls and a signed Ewan McGregor book earlier in the year.

  • I do anywhere between 10 - 40 a day since june - so far i have won nothing!!!

    I only enter the competitions that I really want to win and I like doing the tiebrakers as it requires skill rather than luck. Some days I enter between 5- 15 others days I give it a miss. I have been entering competitions for over 10 years now and have won many prizes including two holidays to Las Vegas, Skiing holiday to Italy, Mini cruise to Amsterdam, Mini cruise to Germany, Pontins holidays, Sports voucher £300, Top of the range Digital camera plus loads of other smaller value prizes. Think positive and keep entering as you have to be in to win. Good luck to you all, Ill sprinkle some magical winning luck your way

  • Funnily enough, I tried to count how many I entered last week, as people keep asking me. I got up to 250, then lost track a bit. I've only been doing that many for about 2 months, but I think I've been very lucky so far, as I've won some really nice prizes. :D I enter mainly online, but some postal etc too. Keep it up, and the prizes will soon come rolling in. I like this site as it's really friendly, and I love to be nosey and read about everyone elses wins!:beer: Good luck everyone! :beer:

    I enter anything from around 25-40 a day, I've had a break for a couple of months though and just started again at the weekend, I've already had my first win after the break though so doing ok at the minute & I guess you can see what sort of stuff I've been winning lol

    I don't tend to enter holiday comps as they're usually just for 2 or abroad (I do enter the UK family ones though)

    I try to enter all the comps posted on the board - less the ones for tickets which I would not use.

    I've not won anything big yet, but the postman calls regularly, which is extremely nice! In fact he tells OH I'm slipping if many days go by and he's not brought a recognisable parcel! :j
