    When they say most popular board, I presume they mean "most posts" rather than the most visited board. There are something like 20+ pages of new posts per day, probably a lot more than on say Mobile Phones, or Mortgages, but for some reason I don't think this is literally the most popular / most visited board. Most people don't know it exists, when you think of the millions of people that come on this site you'd think that say an ITV comp for £50k would get millions of views.... I don't buy into it being "the most popular" I just read it as the board with the most new posts and threads each day!
    Am prepared to be corrected by those in the know, but I somehow don't think most members log on just for comps!

    am not sure cagsd, but maybe it's they go for the 'most viewed' or 'viewing'

    if you go to main forum it shows you how many peeps are viewing the diff boards ie: at the moment a few for example..

    Competitions Time (415 Viewing)

    Freebies (no spend required) (130

    The Money Savers Arms (122 Viewing)

    Discount Codes 'n Vouchers (100 Viewing)

    Old Style MoneySaving (258 Viewing)

    tomorrow the figures will be obviously different again but I've observed the comps board do usually have the highest 'viewing' figures closely followed by grabbit & freebies,

    like you I'll stand corrected if anyone knows any diff x

    I've just asked the question on this weeks thread.
    Anyone placing any bets before there's a reply?

    How much does it cost to have this bet? Is it more than £1.53?
