Lucky dip competitions

Hi,

Does anyone know if it is worth entering these when they have many days still to run? The ones I mean are like those on the magazine pages where you pick numbers and then it comes up sorry you didn't win this time.....
If they are fixed time comps does that mean the prize is only won on the last day? Anyone on here won from them?
Cheers

Doesn't make any difference how many days are left.
The chances of winning are very slim and if no one matches before the comp closes the prize is not won. If someone does actually win then the draw should either be closed or another prize made available.

Odds from another thread

a Mini and the odds were over 45 million to one and a £1,000 cash prize had odds of over 3.2 million to one so the chances of winning are minute
