Nothing again
But I don't enter many due to time0 -

Recently it hasn't felt worth the time! But it only takes one big one to make it feel worth it again. x
Personally I enter about 2 hours each weekday and then I have 1 big comping session at the weekend which is maybe a total of 4-5 hours each weekend day
So maybe 20 hours entering comps each week - only approx - sometimes it's more sometimes less.
For example this weekend i've entered 150 on the Sat and i'm on about the same now for the Sun and i'm still going for a few hours yet
I should also add that I comp by end date and in a very organised way.
Every day I do the instant wins, dailies and comps on tw/fb ending that day, then I do comps ending that day, comps ending the next day and move forward
If you have only recently started comping or do not enter many - you will probably have entered a lot of competitions that do not end yet for a whileNot really comping any more as too ill - but hoping to win £1000+ in 2017 in cash prizes - watch this space!0 -

Thanks fluffy and treacle for the advice. I now do about 60 click to wins a night, followed by about 10 or so dailies and then 20-30 actual 'comps'
I only enter for things that I want to win
the click to wins are very time consuming so not sure if I'll continue as I'm doing the same ones each day on TV choice, take a break, that's life, Bella etc.
Is my strategy good do you think or can you give any feedback/suggestions that may up my oddsThanks to all who post here:beer:0 -
I don't actually do the click to wins or mag dailies - I've maybe done them once or twice.
They just get far too many entries and seem too spammy to me - some don;t even actually promise to give away a prize at all - like those guess the right combination ones etc..
I stick entirely to proper compsNot really comping any more as too ill - but hoping to win £1000+ in 2017 in cash prizes - watch this space!0 -
same as last few months - nothing0

Personally I would drop the click to wins.
Then concentrate on this: Today's most popular
That way you will more than likely get an entry in the higher value comps.
Just my view of course :-)0 -
Thanks Treacle and Weeowens, I think I'll just do click to wins on one site and only for the 4 or 5 really good prizes
Appreciate your input and help.. Hopefully I'll get a win soon and will be back to share it with you all
Weeowens. How did you find that "most popular" listing?Thanks to all who post here:beer:0 -
