    I was agreeing with you :T
    as he'd got it wrong as elsbells pointed out for us :j

    I didn't hear all of it as I had to answer the door (and it wasn't a courier with a surprise parcel :mad::p), but I kinda tuned out after the bloke said he'd won about 500 prizes and had been comping for decades :(

    I think it could be possible if you only entered effort comps and spent a lot of time thinking up slogans, or taking photo's that are quirky and apt, but not with prize draws.
  • he says he has won 500 prize in 40 years which isn't many.

    the DJ read out email from a women, that had won 1,000 competitions in 2013


    I have been comping 27 years have won thousands of competitions
  • I heard a couple who got married and done competition's because they was so poor. It has inspired me to do it. I always wanted to do competitions but I got ripped off many years ago sending money to companies who promise to send entry forms to many competitions. I know I am a muppet for believing them. I just know someone has to win the competition and that someone is only going to be someone who entered. I got a bug to do it years ago off a Rice Crispie packet I won a Sega Master System. I have been meaning to enter more since then it must be 20+ years ago now.
