    I never do very well in the advents despite entering what feels like thousands of competitions - this year I had one win, my first after 3 years of comping and that was a mid layer zip up ski jacket.

    I can't complain though, I've had a great year, just a quiet Nov & Dec
    2024 £72, 2023 £2230, 2022 £300, 2021 £1800, 2015 £3790, 2014 £4460
  • Won nothing so far despite entering lots of competitions, well done to everybody who has won
    Latest win in 2016 is chocolate & wine hamper . :T

    2015 870.00. 2016 110.00
  • Quite sad to have won nothing at all during the Advents. Well done all those who did well.

    I've had a fantastic end to the year winning the I'm a Celeb/Littlewoods comp - which I received the £1000 credit on their sale day so managed to get £1650 worth of stuff for the house with quite a few lovely wins throughout. Also won £100 credit with Motel Rocks so my teen was happy, a sports endurance pack to keep hubster happy and several other advents.

    Non comp wise - sent the hubby to get milk today and he had to use his card so bought 2 £2 scratchcards, the first one I scratched won £40 and he promptly claimed it was his as he wanted to buy a new golf club......the second won 2 x £100 so he dibbed out :rotfl: :beer:

    :T Big thank you to all that post on here and wishing you lots of lucky dust for 2015 xx
    Back to comping after a couple of years overseas
    Good Luck Everyone

    mine wasnt bad, but didnt justify the time i spent on them at the beginning lol... i spent a lot of time posting/answering questions this year so i felt quite proud that my " thanks" went over 50k mainly due to advents.....i often look at some of the " big winners" and realise they dont contribute a lot at all. I like the happy medium, well done everyone x
