    I havent been overly impressed so far this year, its a lot of tat for the majority of comps. Ive got about 250 links saved and i prob enter a max of 30 comps a day out of all those. Also slightly miffed that most seem to be on Facebook now (although i still enter on there) but the comment/like ones take away the anticipation of a WEM coming through!
    We all love a WEM!

    more chance of polishing a turd than finding a decent load of advents that have a slightly feasable chance of winning

    Some prize givers must be giving away the crap they couldn't shift at boot fairs through the year.

    Too many red crosses for my liking

  • Day 6 & i'm bored already. :rotfl:
  • The Advents are so soporific and I'm not even seeking them out because I know from past years they are in the main a time consuming waste of effort. Whatever your approach to comping they are there in your face.

    Wheat from the chaff and you still have 250 left !!!!!

    I have it down to less than 30 including FB/TW and even they are not all worth entering everyday.
