    I only enter comps with prizes that me or my family would like or find useful

    I very rarely enter comps for books/dvd's or cd's unless I really want them

    Car comps I enter in my mums name, cos I can't drive and I don't enter holiday comps for abroad unless its Florida as I would love to take Master kips there or New York cos I really really really really wanna go there :D

    I no longer enter comps with tickets only (if there is accommodation with them, I'll enter) that are too far away, makeover ones, bungie jumping, or anything too strenuous, or baby stuff. I do enter more or less everything else. I used to enter the lot, but it got beyond a joke, very very compulsive. If I can't use stuff, I have a nine (going on 19) year old grandaughter, who'll have anything that's going.
    Definately don't enter Myoffer, and the like.

    I never enter MyOffers etc either. I don't enter for tickets unless it's not to far away, or I know someone who could go. I don't enter for holidays or flights unless its for more than 4 people.

    I only enter for prizes that I want or can give to kids/friends/family.

    I enter ones for things me or my family want, holidays, or things of value that I could sell.

    Like most other compers, I enter the ones with prizes either I, my family or friends would use. I don't enter holiday abroad ones as I'm petrified of flying :o
