Are the Click to Win comps really worth entering?

Do you find you have plenty of comping time for entering these without affecting other comp entries?
With, say, average 8 pages per mag and you enter 4 comps on average from each page, that's 32 entries per day per mag and 128 entries per day over 4 mags. Throw in a few from the other 2 mags and you must be making around 4,000 entries a month. :eek: Just on click to win and for just 32 different prizes.
It is hard to keep up sometimes but have had more win from the Clickies and the Mag dailies than on the main board but I expect that is just luck. I just keep plodding away and see what happens. You just have to keep trying, hope you get lucky soon.
Think the main thing with the clickies is not to miss it when you win as its not the usual Congratulations in the email title. It usually says in the title "You entered (mag name) and won. Then in the email it says "Congratulations! You've been selected as a possible winner of.....". and click on the link below and fill out the form. Think a few have almost deleted by mistake.BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS0 -
I've just recently started doing the click to win comps and I enter through TV Choice because they click through to follow on to the next comp rather than going back to the page with the grid layout of comps. (hopefully that makes some sense)
I find it's much quicker and it's easy to skip the ones I'm not interested in too.
I know I could enter more times by visiting all of the other sites but I don't want to spend that much time on them.
Maybe some people haven't noticed that the TV choice site is the easiest one and will appreciate that info.Good luck, all.
Thank you to everyone who posts on the competitions boards. You all rock!0 -
I can't decide whether I should keep up with the clickies or not. I did have one win just before Xmas for make-up but because it wasn't obvious and I only had 5 days to claim I missed getting it. I am a bit worried that if you don't claim within a few days you lose the prize so if you win while on holiday that is that!
Have found the Daiies manageable lately and do them every day but doing the clickies seems to take longer and longer.Mar Wins :- £2 GfK Media

comping = nowt more thrillin' than winnin':T :j0 -
Yes
Even though I have not yet won from them I do enter all the ones I would like to win every day. I agree it's a lot of work but you have to be in it to win it.
If I did not have as much time as I do I would probably not enter them as often as I do now.
Because I have the time I don't miss any comps coming on to the board
I guess it's all down to how much time you have personally to spend every day & how you share that time.

'ello LO,
Yes, I think you've summed it up quite well, it's just a matter of time. If you've got time to go through the main board and the mags, that's great but what do you put first if you can't do both. I think I'm trying to convince myself to carry on with the click to wins but not really finding enough time.0 -

I would go through the board first, then cherry pick from the daily mags & the daily click to wins. So anything I really would love to win rather than everything I would like to win
Or you could always forgo sleep :rotfl:

I think that when there are so many click to wins, a lot of people will not bother entering them all, therefore, if you entered one of the smaller prizes (say a year's supply of toothpaste) and entered it every day, on each site, you would stand a fair chance of winning, as less people will bother. Whereas most people will enter the ones to win say £500 of shopping vouchers.
I do the mag daillies and seem to have been quite lucky lately. I don't know if that is because a lot of people stopped doing them in December in order to concentrate on the advents, or if it is because a lot of people gave up when it was one prize spread over several mags.0 -

One of the reasons I'm short of time is because I can't stay up all night comping these days, it was affecting my health, so it's bed by
1am now instead of 4am (or later).0 -
AWWWWW
You are doing much better than me Bob, I need my bed by 10.30pm!
I do agree that lack of sleep impacts on health big time

I have recently completed the main board and as I don't do twitter or face book I'm finding it ok to keep up, I normally do the mag clickys first thing then on an afternoon catch up with the main board but my problem is once I'm finished I look at the daily mags and they are so many of them I get confused and put off I really don't know where to start !! Also do you have a better chance with the mag dailies or clickys and also please tell me that you don't do them all !!! should I just choose a few and do them ones every day sorry I know its choice but I don't seem to be able to get motivated with any of the dailies apart from the clickys0
