For all the time and effort I've put into them, all I've won is a pen & mug set from HTC!!! Really hoped I'd do better this year than last year's total of a Pringles speaker!!0

Keep your spirits up, not all advents are notifying winners, on friday I would have said all I had won were a few discount vouchers but on saturday postie delivered a sanctuary gift box - still a bit of a let down on last year when I won every dayproud gran to 4 lovely boys and one little girl0 -
It has been my first year of advents and I have really enjoyed them. The first week was horrendous as I tried to enter everything and it felt soul destroying when I would come back the next morning to what felt like a doubling list :S After that week, I had a good idea of what I wanted to enter and have been flying through ever since
Have had a few wins, nothing really big but enough to say it's been worth it and I will be back next year haha
My wine is already cooling in the fridge for Xmas eve :P0 -
i`ll be glad to see the back of them! huge effort for nothing this year been a struggle fitting as many comps in around my work and for me sadly not one single win! just the way it goes tho i know some of them have had huge amounts of entries even for small prizes, i was looking forward to the advents this year aswell but been dissapointing as i say. still i`ll carry on comping tho its just what we do!! :-)Thank you all who post.0

Just wanted to say a MASSIVE thanks to everyone that posted the Advents this year. Did seem to be a fair few with "offers" rather than actual prizes tho so hope that's not the way it's going to continue to go...
Up on last year (a single Lego figure!) so can't complain but will be glad to get back to "normal" again.
Good luck everyone for 2014!0 -
I would like to thank all the posters and bumpers of the advents. Wasn't meaning to do many this year as I am usually not lucky with them but got caught up in them all when peeps shared with me and after the first win I was hooked again. Did pretty well on them, my favourite being the Xmas hamper that arrived today. Will be glad to get back to normal though.Mar Wins :- £2 GfK Media
Best Win of 2019 - Forest Holiday0
