Entering all of the click2wins?

Hi guys,

Do you enter all of the click2wins, for each prize you want to win, every day? Is it even worth entering them on a few sites, every few days or should I just go for a couple of prizes, but enter them on every site, every day?!

    Up to you, really. I enter what I can and what I can't I don't worry about.

    Mm, I see. Thanks. Well, I suppose I was wondering if it's a waste of time to just enter here and there, and whether anyone has won from just entering a couple of times! I guess it's just luck, though..

    Yup, just luck ... you could have 1 entry and win with it.

    I went through a wee phase after new year of entering everything that I wanted to win on every site, did it for about 4 months doing every site, roughly 5 days a week ... took about 3 or 4 hours every day, didn't win a thing so gave up on it. That's for both the C2W's and the Mag Dailies.

    I do sometimes go back and do a few, I figure they owe me! ... but only if I'm really, really bored.

    Some info in this thread

    You might win with 1 entry just less likely to do so than with the 3,000 plus entries you can get for some of them - that's the high end for the number of entries but many of them have at least 500 available.

    I entered some when there were far fewer sites so the possible entry levels were much lower but now there are over 100 sites and more than 2,000 daily entries possible I rarely bother with them.

    I was poorly a lot last month and didn't have time to enter many clicktowins. However, I still managed to win £1200 worth of hillwalking equipment! Just do what you can and don't think too much on it. :)

    In March I won a hair straigtener retails about £130 and a DVD from just one entry each.

    Like Createbeauty I enter what I would like to win when I can and don't worry. They say you have to be in to win but obviously as mjm points out there are so many sites and entries but at the end of the day it is luck.
