Competitions Discussion Thread Part 2

Sometimes they take a while to send prizes out, some of the t&c's state that winners will be notified within x days (sometimes 28) so still chance for some of them.

I started comping about 2-3 weeks ago and I must admit I am totally addicted. I entered as many comps as I could initially right back to page 150.

At the moment I am trying to enter about 40-50 a day of the things I want to win. The items I have won in my signature are from the instant win comps - so as yet I have not had an email telling me I have won - or a surprise package just turn up - I am so looking forward to when it happens.

I can see me being around here for a long time to come. I got my mum into it as well and we are now competing against each other to see who can win things first - she won some Millies cookies (jealous ... much)

Great thread - really interesting to read.

This question comes up on a weekly basis. I enter about 50 a day ish and win about 6 per month on average but it took 6 months to get my first win which was only a CD and 6 months for the next win.

Hi,

I started comping about a week ago. I've entered loads to try to catch up with all the older comp postings. I've become quite addicted and can't wait for my first win.

But in the meantime I'll get my coat and pop over to the other thread for us loosers .

Hopefully I'll win something soon, and then in the words immortalised by Arnold Schwarzenegger ... I'll be back :cool:

only started - would say about 30 - 50 a day and so far on day 3 i won 4 gig tickets so that was a good bit of luck i tend not to think about "oh i hope i win this or that" and "oh i wonder when we find out". If i do i do if i dont i dont - i only do them while im watching my soaps on tv anyway

I normally enter about 70-80 per day (approx). I don't keep a list of what i've won and how often, just never got around to it really. I have won a fair bit though over the past year or so but nothing major, I think the highest value win was a nintendo ds and game.
Does anyone else think that the end of August wins are a bit thin on the ground or is it just me??? Maybe i'm a bit impatient this month

i RECKON WE SHOULD HAVE A STICKY WITH THE NAMES OF WINNERS ON ALL THOSE SITES THAT YOU ARE SUPPOSSED TO CHECK EVERYDAY TO SEE IF YOU HAVE WON.

Then we can just search taht for our names rather than go to all those sites.

Apologies for the caps lock I didn't realise it was on till after I wrote it & I'm not writing it again! LOL!
