nope nothing yet - then again ive been having to do some dailies as there's so little of interest on the mains
don't think ill be able to do 160 a day if it carries on being so bare.0 -
I personally counted my entries in 2012 (I started comping June 2011) and in 2012 was totally up to date with the boards and my win ratio was 1:225, laptop died beginning of 2013 and wasn't replaced for 4 months so ended up end date comping and have never got back to clearing the boards. 2013 still a great year, 2014 was dismal as didn't have time to comp.
I think it would be nice to try and keep this thread going for the year, is certainly motivating me to enter more! Have had 11 wins so far this month (I can now say I have won more than I did for whole of 2014!)
One is from a September comp, 1 from January comp and 1 I can't find, so am going with 8 February entry wins which gives a win ratio of 1:300 at the moment. xxI love this board, have "virtually" met so many lovely people, people I am honoured to count as friends.

Will someone click this and let me know if you can see it?
Also please don't mock my spreadsheet skills, I've only had 10 minutes on my lunch to get the data input. We can add any other fanciness once I know people can see it. Ta muchly

Wow becky that's some win rate you have there :T congrats! I've had one win this month but this was from a comp in December.
And this is where I get all squirly in my brains as one of the many unregulated variables in this is what we chose to enter for. Someone who only enters for high ticket electronics will skew the result one way while someone who enters for lower value prizes will skew it the other.
My inner nerd is wishing I could round you all up, put you in holding cells and measure every variable.
Not weird. Not weird at all.

No can't edit it, can just see everyone's figures.
I don't enter just big prizes, I enter anything that would be useful for me or close friends and family, so have a lot of small value wins. But on average when comping properly get 1 big win per month (that to me is something over £100) I got that as a surprise parcel yesterday, I won this https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5161596. So after a very dry 2014 am really pleased
