    Wow I really want to punch a lot of you. :p I haven't really won anything since 2007 and have pretty much stopped doing comps barring the money ones in the last couple of years.
    2007 Won Ipod 30GB Video Sold on ebay for £136.51
    Total Winnings in 2007 = £136.51 :T
    Total Winnings In 2008/2009/2010 = £0 :cry:
    Total Winnings In 2011 = £305.37 (49s Lotto):D
    Total Winnings In 2012/13/14/15/16/17/18 = 0
    Total Winnings This Year = £0 :mad:

    I have not won a thing since February.
    But always remain hopeful, i am not entering the magazine dailies anymore, or any dailies to be honest, don't have the time anymore.

    How some of you can go for years without a win, even me and my optimistic head would give up on that one.

    So keep positive, our turn will come again ;):D

    All of this month. I'm normally lucky enough to get a prize each month but nothing so far. July isn't being kind yet.


    I won something today so my dry spell is over! :)
    Thank you to everyone who posts on the competitions boards. You all rock!

    I have been comping since the end of June. Unsure on exact date but about three weeks anyway. I'm yet to win anything but I imagine these things take time as it is purely a game of numbers. It's quite fun imagining winning the prizes and telling my OH that we're going on holiday :D hehe I remain optimistic!

    I hardly win anything to be honest. I enter all comps by end date and random comps in between for things I'd like to win. Enter all ITV comps too, as many times as allowed. Holding out for a big win :)

    About 2 years! I only enter comps for things I really want to win, or local comps so that could be why.
