Best win... £500 shopping vouchers, it was just before I went to university and it meant that I could buy some great 'new home' stuff that I'd never have been able to afford without the win.

Strangest win.... A 'garden in a box' ...no idea where it came from, but must've been a runner's up prize because I don't even have a garden and it was a box filled with loads of seeds and tools and everything. I gave it to a friend who does have a garden and he was thrilled

Highest value win.... £500

how long have you been comping.... About 4 years, but more like 1 and a half because I had a loooooong break

do you just enter comps posted on MSE.... Yes, I've tried other sites but I just prefer MSE. Although it would be cool if MSE kept track of how many you enter (based on the tick system) like ThePrizeFinder, because I do really like that about TPF.

How often on average do you think you win.... Not very often! This month I've won 6 things

how long after you started comping did you get your first win....A few weeks, and it turned up unannounced - a box of Belvita breakfast biscuits. My mum loves them so she was very pleased. I love prizes where you can make someone really happy with what you've won, often in the most random ways!

Anything else you want to say or add, any tips for new compers or word of inspiration lol....
Just keep going, don't expect to win loads, get Roboform to make things easier, definitely enter Twitter & Facebook competitions, keep your phone off silent! and only enter for things you really want/will actually have a use for
