I enter 100s a day too, including dailies but only enter to win what prizes I want or family would like. I am pretty lucky too but I put a lot of time into entering. I defo think if you want to see WEMs you need to enter lots.:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0

I don't think i enter 100s a day (simply haven't got the time as i work long hours) but i have always been very lucky. My fave two wins are in my sig (42 inch tv. blu ray plaer and a holiday to Venice but i've won lots of other great things ike cameras, smart phones and £250 of clarins products. I also win quite a few books, dvds, makeup and other small prizes.
Hope everyone has a lucky Christmas ! xx:j First prizes back into comping after a break - romantic break to 2 to Venice/ Paris or Rome with romantic trip and a 42 inch TV and blu Ray amazing !
Thank you all so much and good luck guys and girls xxxxxx0 -
I'm very selective in what i enter for (dont see the point in entering for everything, whats the point in entering for stuff you'd never use just for the thrill of winning and denying someone else who would use it a chance to win it) so dont enter that many a day but the advents have been very fruitful for me this year (been doing about 150 a day this month) ive won 30 prizes this month (and they are mostly high value) so think ive been on a lucky streak this month!0

I enter around 200 a day at the moment inc magazine dailies. Ive always entered 100+ a day. I did really well until Feb 2013 then my wins were few and far between. I slowed down my comping, then took a break apart from the times comps I want to enter. I then started doing mags again (as this is where the majority of my luck has come from) and this month with the advents Ive been on 200 a day or so. Ive not won a single advent yet, however I still enter when I have the time.
I enter for what I or someone I know would like. I dont know that many people so a lot of prizes I skip. I do it to pass the time, yes a win is nice and I would love another really nice win, but Im thinking my luck has run out a bit really (either that or Im due to win a really big one:rotfl:)Current Aims: Laptop/PC, decent money, holiday
Best Wins: Ipad, Nintendo 3DS, £400 Shopping Spree at LK Bennett, £100 Boots vouchers
Total Wins (Since April 2012) £3442.56
Big thanks to all who post comps :T:beer:0 -
I enter about 50+ per day and had 4 small wins on monday pizza, love hearts, fosters glass, budweiser glass. I have really dry spells with nothing, I think I am just going to enter ones I really want to win, all the big things I cant afford to buy! I have a box upstairs full of stuff I dont want or need.0

I go through phases of entering loads... then not so many. Per page, I'll probably enter 5 and go through 20 pages. However, I do miss the odd page because there is nothing on there that I want. I don't enter the mag dailies either as can't be bothered with them. I do enter rafflecopters although, they can be a bit of a faff. Facebook I enter a lot more now because of the whole not sharing thing. I used to hate that. Twitter, I only enter certain ones as my twitter account is the one I use for my blog. So don't want to clutter it with comp shares.
Wins. I have some really good months where I'll win a few bits then other times I'll go ages without anything. But I just comp when I feel like it. I do try and do it every day, but I don't kick myself if I miss a day or two.
I personally just think some people are luckier than others. However, our luck will come one day
Like the lottery... you've got to be in it to win it!! So many people make me laugh when they say ''I never win on the lottery'' then tell you they don't buy it!! :rotfl:This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
The closest I'll get to a lucky streak is making it across the pitch without getting arrested!0

Can someone clarify.. Are "mag dailies" the giveaways on TV choice etc where you enter the captcha code? If it's not these, am I missing an opportunity?
Very new to this and yet to win a thing.. Do about 20 of the above and trawl through these pages each day but only do comps I want to win or that the family would enjoy.. .probably about 40-50 a day in total
Hep to get my first win eventually.. My dream is to win a holiday
Oh and P.S. What are "adverts"?Thanks to all who post here:beer:0 -
In the past I've been lucky - I enter between 2 & 300 a day including dailies but so far this year I've won a pizza and that's it up till ten my worst was march last year when I won 4 small thingsproud gran to 4 lovely boys and one little girl0

It really depends on why you want to enter competitions. I enter things for impressive prizes, so I filter down what I want to win based on prize size.That means that I don't win as many things as other people, but when i do - its for things that I really want as opposed to little things.0
