Plus the last few weeks worth of entries on HotUKDeals' competition section.
.. and entered every single competition with a prize that either I, my girlfriend, family or friends would like ie. about 80%! Took a good couple of hours over the last 3 days, probably something like 1,300 competitions in total. I incidentally didn't enter anything with a value of <£15.
Hoping to start off this comping thing with a non-dry first month lol. In case anyone is new and reading and wondering if doing such a thing is worthwhile, I'll report back at the end of the month with any wins as most of these comps end within the next few weeks.
Most of all I just hope to win some things that friends and family love so I can see their faces!
Good luck for May all!

I would pee myself off comping at that rate, with still no guarantees
Tis a hobby not a full time job, but each to their own and good luck to ya

I'm one of those people that needs to know something is statistically worthwhile haha, so I thought.. only way to find out is to do absolutely everything and see what that provides!
Don't think I could do it again any time soon though lol.0 -
I did the same today - mostly do new comps as they appear then end date for ones I've missed - my end dating got me to the end today!

Would like to add that I was never able to maintain it, Soon found that I got way behind if I had a couple of days off, Stressed me out so now I just sort by thread start date and work back over until I get too previous days green ticks/crosses if possible xWow it took me weeks to complete the whole board and don't even think it was 80% Well done and good luck :T0 -
You did the whole board in a couple of hours ?? It takes me that long to do the newly added ones daily :eek:0

Just be careful you're not entering the same competition twice (ie once from here and once from HUKD) as this may invalidate your entries.
Good luck though0 -
