    I've bookmarked roughly about 250 and I do alot of them each day, but only if the prize is something I want, so I'd say maybe 200?

    I have yet to have a win.

  • I do about 50 advents a day. Not a win yet. I also find them annoying. Bah-Humbug! I probably should put the xmas tree up, then my luck might change!

    Ive got a few more than 200 comps bookmarked, it takes a while to go through them all as i have to look at them all to filter out all the tat. I'm probably only entering about 40 a day out of all those.
    I had my first win this morning - a pair of diamond earrings!
    Losing the will to live with them tbh, its so boring this year, really not enjoying it much but i still feel compelled to enter haha.

    oh - i also won from pirelli too so looks like i'm going to get 2 of them :D
  • This is the first year I've really bothered with the advents - mostly because I'm on maternity leave waiting and have nothing better to do. It's paying off though and I've had lots of small wins. It's made me wish I hadn't got all my Christmas shopping finished so early! (Still, I can put it all away for next year... :) )

    I've only won some coffee this year - so far it's even worse than last year - although I only won once it was a large sanctuary gift box- think I'm doing around 150 a day
