    As competitions are random, unless it is a requirement of entry it shouldn't affect your chances of winning at all :)

    hi, your question can be answered by reading the comping guide here..

    Comping Guide - Getting Started & Other FAQs

    11 If you opt in or out of their mailing / 3rd party mailings, does it affect your chances?


     I ALWAYS indicate a big fat 'no' to both of those, unless it is something that I'd really like to hear more about or a comp you enter by signing up for their newsletter.

    It should make no difference to whether you are included in the comp or not, although some smaller companies may break the rules. I have to say I’ve been really lucky with wins & it seems to have made no difference whatsoever to my chances by always opting out where I can. It just means that I end up with less spam & on less junk mail lists.
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png
