    You'd struggle to enter 160 competitions when there are around 4500 listed? Wow you must be picky!

    I am a bit, I don't enter for stuff that I could sell or that is of no use to me. I also work all day and between that and walking the dog I don't really get much time to do comping :)
    It would probably be a better gauge for me to count at the weekend as I tend to try and do the next weeks ending comps at the weekend and then on a Monday night I'll catch up on any new additions that end on Tuesday etc ... so on a daily basis Mon-Fri I hardly enter anything.

    I've won a competition that I entered yesterday - a pack of Pampers baby wipes on Twitter :o

    I seriously hope that's not the only thing I'm going to win before this experiment is over!!

    Can I join in?

    Have done 320 between 1st & 4th so below target at moment but will try and catch up :)

    I count every individual entry, inc mags & CtoWs.

    Results could be interesting - I was recovering from an illness last year, getting back to work and with more time and energy than I'd had for ages. Between Jan - April I entered between 4,000 - 5,000 monthly and definitely had best comping results ever. I would love to see if I can replicate this :D

    Welcome to the madness maypole.

    That makes 9 of us, I will take 1 more if anyone wants to join, I think 10 compers aiming for 40,000 comps is ample, also we are a few days in now so it would be hard to catch up much later in the month

    Anyone want the last spot?

    :eek:

    I keep an excel sheet of the comps I entered. I am not sure why but seemed like a good idea when I started last October. Anyway I guess it is coming handy now.

    So I have entered 405 competitions since February 1st. Will add my total for the day later on as I haven't started yet.
