  • Good idea- I'm so nosy and love finding out things about other people!

    1. How long have you been comping?
    I comped for about two months two years ago while job hunting and got into again at the beginning of December when I went from working full time to part time.

    2. How many do you enter a day?
    I tally every competition and put it into a spreadsheet at the end of the day (Yes, I am that person...) On average it's 52 competitions a day :rotfl:

    3. What has been you best best win?
    A mug in the shape of a tooth!


    4. Do you do the daily mags? If so have you ever won on them?
    Sometimes and not yet :)

    5. Are twitter and/or Facebook lucky for you?
    I've won something on Twitter but haven't been able to claim it yet! It was a tweet through Rafflecopter.


    6. Anything else you want to get off your chest.
    Yesterday (I don't work Wednesdays) I planned to get on top of the board, so woke up early and was really geared up for it. Cue finding that our internet was down! Apparently yesterday was also the day that our internet was switching to a new provider- something went wrong and we had no internet until 6pm today!

    A comping free day meant that the house is now incredibly clean and the freezer full with batch-cooked meals :)

    Next Wednesday I will get on top of the board!!

    How long have you been comping?
    About 20 years on and off, regularly since I joined this forum.

    How many do you enter a day?
    I've never counted, but as many as possible which would be of some use to me/someone I know.

    What has been you best best win?
    An all-inclusive week for 2 to Antigua.

    Do you do the daily mags? If so have you ever won on them?
    I used to do them regularly, but only occasionally now. I've won £50 of Tesco vouchers.

    Are twitter and/or Facebook lucky for you?
    I've won a few things on both, but I try not to spam my non-comping friends too much.

    Anything else you want to get off your chest :)

    Only that my name is ness13 and I think I am addicted to comping! :D
    Love all, trust a few. Do wrong to none.

    An eye for an eye only leads to more blindness.

    How long have you been comping?
    I started in Feb 2011 so this will be my third year :)

    How many do you enter a day?
    Dailies about 50, depends on the day really, last Friday I entered 2 as I comp by end date :) End of month it can be anything from 300-600. But I don't really keep count :)

    What has been you best best win?
    Oh, it'd have to be between the VIP trip to Longleat I won with Thirst Pockets last year or the £1000 Tesco giftcards I won in October.


    Do you do the daily mags? If so have you ever won on them?
    I do them when I feel like, or have spare time. I do them for a few days then stop. I have won a few things on them :)

    Are twitter and/or Facebook lucky for you?
    Yes! I've won loads but they come in batches. In 2012 I won my iPad 2, iPhone 4S and my iPod 32GB from Facebook comps - I've won a Kindle Fire, expensive watch, set of One Direction dolls, an Xperia phone and lots more over the years from twitter :D

    Anything else you want to get off your chest?
    I need a maid! Haha :o
    Thanks to all posters :A

    How long have you been comping?

    Since about the end of december 2013

    How many do you enter a day?

    depends if i'm busy at work- can be between 50-200

    What has been you best best win?

    Well, i've had confirmation email that i had won a cube radio. As yet it hasn't arrived.

    Do you do the daily mags? If so have you ever won on them?

    Not yet - but i might start having a go

    Are twitter and/or Facebook lucky for you?

    Had to create new accounts this week so not as yet.

    Anything else you want to get off your chest.

    I need a new job :rotfl:
  • How long have you been comping? Since May 2012.

    How many do you enter a day? It averages out at about 40 a day, plus dailies/click to wins when I have time.

    What has been you best best win? Probably my iPad mini or £250 my-wardrobe.com voucher!

    Do you do the daily mags? If so have you ever won on them? Yes, but not every single day - I don't have time and I find the ones that are all the same prizes SO dull. I've won once from Look magazine, one of my very first wins back in 2012.

    Are twitter and/or Facebook lucky for you? I don't use Twitter for comping - I have a real account that I use for other things and want to keep my tweets protected so I can't, as companies wouldn't be able to see my retweets etc. I do Facebook app competitions for good prizes, but have never won.
    2018 wins: Aspinal of London jewellery box, Boudavida gym outfit, HP Pavilion laptop, The List party tickets, All Points East festival tickets, Kiehls moisturiser, By Terry cc serum, Nars Liquid Bronzer, Benefit highlighter, Nars illuminator, Fresh advanced lip trio set, Cetaphil sample set, signed copy of My Absolute Darling by Gabriel Tallent

    xxxx





    Started in 2010... Did a few then dwindled off. Started again last march and had a break from June til October and have been hard core since :p



    I've never counted and I really couldn't say how many I enter.. But it's a fair few :D


    Prize wise My Winter coat and Boots
    Value wise £500 gift voucher ... Which leads me onto


    Yes I do mag dailies and have done pretty well on them. I won £50 Laura Ashey shop, a P&G Hamper to the value of £50 and last week won £500 Gift Card for a Home Store similar to TKMAX.

    As a rule I don't do Facebook as I don't wanna upset friends with constant timeline bombing.... I enter the odd Twitter if it's something I REALLY want, but I won't hold my breath cos there's rediculous amounts enter those.


    I'm not addicted to comping, I just can't stop doing it ;);)
