Need a sprinkle of luck

Congratulations to everyone who has won a competition. I was hoping you could all give me a little bit of luck if I posted here i have been entering comps for about two months, lots per day and I haven't won anything as yet. Not loosing hope though and I will keep going as its fun to do.

I wanted to ask is there anyway I can sort them in a date order to those ending soonest I am not sure I am doing it right. Thanks :) Any tips would be great.

    Hi Mama, Keep going your wins will come, I sort mine into date order by scrolling to the bottom of the page, then under 'Display Options' Drop down sorted by and select Thread Title then click show threads.
    It's puts them in order of title so for example page one will all start E:31/12 - You then need to jump to the page where todays dates are so to give you an example the 21st April (Tomorrow) Are currently on pages 174 - 191 ....
    Be mindful when you work this way because if a new comp is added that day / ending that day you may miss it so now and again I always go back through them and double check, I also go back to the default page and look at the newly listed comps as well..

    Hope this helps ....

    Good Luck xx

    May good luck be your friend in whatever you do and may trouble be always a stranger to you.

    Sending you lots of luck and best wishes. Keep going. I received a prize yesterday from a comp I entered back in November - who knows you may already be a winner!

    I also don't just go for the 'big' prizes. A small, random prize occasionally can really cheer you up. I love my Spam flipflops and Frosty Jacks onesie... :rotfl:
