Funny things you notice about wins...

Options
I've been comping now just over a year and I've noticed several things happening -


1, Prizes I've won are when multiple prizes are won so for example 10 x prize available. I've never won a 1 only prize....yet


2, Any WEM I get have only ever come through when I'm not logged onto my Hotmail account. I keep it open during the day but several WEM come after I've left work at 4:30pm (2 between 5:30pm - 6:30pm and one nearly 9pm) or come when I've been on my lunch so I've never seen it "pop" up straight away.


3, All "big" prizes I have been notified of (via WEM) before, only 2 surprise wins my Swarovski necklace and a recipe book were unexpected. Ive also never had a willing phone call


What common "themes" do your wins take..?

    Winning prizes I never entered for.


    Some kiddies wristbands from WOTV (no kids)


    London Pet Show tickets from WOTV (No kids & live in Yorks)


    Weald of Kent Craft Show Tickets (Nowhere near again)


    I know I never entered for any of those 3.


    And today, some Home Improvement Tickets for Birmingham from Kitchen Garden - sod's law as you have to enter all Monthly Giveaways. It couldn't have been one the other giveaways that I actually wanted.


    Hate to sound ungrateful, but it annoys me when the prizes could have gone to someone who would have appreciated them. I did ask WOTV to redraw The Pet Show ones but they got a bit arsey. The other ones just turned up. Aargh!!!!


    I'd love to win something I have entered for!!!!
