23.46 and finally gone through all 25 pages
I think I may cry if I wake up and they have multiplied again!
HOWEVER
Thank you to Jambo
Thank you to KatieL and Laks and all the posters - those who post loads and those who post one
Thanks to you lot - even if we are all getting a bit moany about them
I kicked off my December with some Loyd Grossman curry sauces and £2.50 Amazon voucher and nope, that won't change my world. But it did make me really happy.
I've loved the run up to advents, I've loved the banter and may December bring you all fabulous things :beer:Comps £2016 in 2016 - 1 wins = £530 26.2%

Wow! See what you were all getting hyped up about now, I've been lost in advents for hours, and have only managed to do a fraction ha ha. Think I'm going to be a random dip in and out, otherwise I'll tie myself in knots. Haven't touched the main forum today either
Thanks to all the regulars and pro's for posting and keeping things in some kind of order. You're all diamonds.TOP MONEYSAVING TIP
Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!0 -
hmm there seems to be lots more than last year
I am not really impressed with many of the prizes or comps so might drastically reduce the number I am going to doWon a holiday every year since 2014......come on 2021!!

I was at work then gym then making dinner so started them about 8pm this evening. Lots to trawl through! I opened up almost every thread in the advent sticky to at least have a look at what was on offer before losing the will to live, but only actually entered around 40 today. I reckon that will drop down to 10-20 most days when I'm feeling less enthusiastic :rotfl: though will do some extra when I have time.
This is probably why Ive never actually managed to win an advent yet in two and a half years' comping!!2018 wins: Aspinal of London jewellery box, Boudavida gym outfit, HP Pavilion laptop, The List party tickets, All Points East festival tickets, Kiehls moisturiser, By Terry cc serum, Nars Liquid Bronzer, Benefit highlighter, Nars illuminator, Fresh advanced lip trio set, Cetaphil sample set, signed copy of My Absolute Darling by Gabriel Tallent0 -
There is some utter crap on offer - don't think i'll be making any more of an effort than usual0

I have decided I HATE the "enter once every 24 hours" Grrrrrr!
By the time I sat down last night to enter the advents it was late, so there are now some that won't enter again until 24 hours are passed.
Really?Thanks to all posters :A0 -
What Sax said :T
I was going to do the Advents rather than my usual routine.
After looking at the Advents I think I will do my normal stuff and glance at the Advents if I have any comping time left.“I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints.” - Billy Joel

Mansey-last year I had a few advent wins but did better with regular web comps maybe because slightly fewer entering because of advents.0

I'm sulking about the Curry's giveaway on Facebook - I'm not funny and no one has ever given me a rubbish present, I've NO chance of winning!
I'm in a wee work bubble, won't get to look at advents until tonight when I give it another go. Got to say it didn't feel like I was bookmarking much last night but I might think differently later on. And I'm sure they'll be whittled down.
Still excited though - I'm irrepressibly perky, annoying, isn't it?Comps £2016 in 2016 - 1 wins = £530 26.2%
