Been comping a week and my first win was a nintendo 2ds with super mario 2 (3ds game).
Since then I have had 1 win every 2 days, first was a cookbook and 2 free packs of sausage vouchers from debby and andrews sausages website, next a skin cancer detector wristband off twitter and yesterday I got an email off indigo memoirs to tell me I had won a prize draw and to message them back with my twitter tag so waiting to hear back off them what i won.
I think I have been lucky but I have been comping 10+ hours a day, completely addicted to it so I guess you get what you put in0 -
I won a holiday to Israel, of all places, many years ago, from a movie quiz.breathe in, breathe out- You're alive! Everything else is a bonus, right? RIGHT??0

Used to enter the postals in kids magazines back in the 90's. I remember winning an Inspector Gadget activity pack thing.
Since my MSE comping days i can't remember my first win but looking though my WEM's folder the first one on there was for some Max Factor make-up!0 -
I won a pair of David Bowie's concert jeans back in 2005, from the Mirror newspaper. It was part of the Rwanda charity appeal I think. Bowie donated them as a prize. Considering I am a total Bowie fan, it was an amazing win for me
And even more amazing because I'd never won anything before. Ever.

i entered a competition on Yahoo! in early 2002 and then forgot about it. The day England got knocked out of the world cup a lady rang me up to tell me I had won it (i had totally forgotten about it)
The prize was two tickets to the world cup final in Tokyo, flights, accomodation, spending money, transfers etc. There were Yahoo! winners from all over the world there and i remember thinking that the person who worked for Yahoo to look after all of the winners had the best job in the world!
Been entering competitions ever since. I don't do very many so i quite often go long periods without winning anything but when i do win something i am always just as chuffed as i was back in 2002:j
====================================
Best win all time - World Cup Final Trip to Japan :j0 -
Well my first ever win was February last year (not with MSE) was a £10,000 wedding which was unbelievable, so after that I discovered the world of comping and became addicted to MSE lol. 3 weeks before we were due to get married I won £5000 through a Febreeze competition on here, AMAZING!!
Haven't won anything since then but I still enter them every day, certainly wont give up x0 -
