  • im self employed but my work takes me in and out of the hous throughout the day. each morning i pop on and enter any comps posted during the night then if i have a lunch break ill go on and enter any that will close that day by crtain time otherwise wait till its tea time and comp while everyone is watching tv. it doesnt bother me if i miss any but so far by goin on twice a day iv entered all of that days comps posted.
    i dont search by end date but when someone posts i enter
    i also enter a lot of twitter and fb ones but that takes seconds and i can do that on my phone
    click to win and dailies i do in a block after tea. only take 30mins at most as usually only hav to enter email for that and i use an autoform for most things.
    i do miss a few that people post and only a day or few hours to enter but thats life!!
  • I'm off work sick at the moment so finding plenty of time to comp. Usually i just watch TV and do the competitions at the same time, I whiz through, In saying that I can enter loads and win hardly a thing and then have periods where i enter a few and win a fair amount. I don't really think too much about it its just a routine a nice way to relax and think ooohh Id love to win that
  • Me and my wife share them which helps, I try and do the main board and she tries to do any of the extras- we avoid Rafflecopters as well

    At the end of the day you cannot enter everything so we just do as much as possible

    Switching from end date comping ( if you do that ) I found has helped
