    Well, the month is over so here's my list. Quite a few tiny value wins this month (1 pack of butter, 1 pizza, 2 chocolate bars etc) which made it look like a lot of wins were coming but overall value was poor.


    I included the AEG Mixer from AO.com in my list. It wasn't strictly a comp, they sent me it to review - but it was through comping/comping friends that I found out about that.


    A couple of modest wins, with WEB being the best entry method followed by FB, but then 24th June struck and blew the month from not great to very good - 3 wins that day with a combined total value of over £1000.


    I REALLY wanted the blender, so was delighted when I got the WEM. But to get home and find the circus tickets, then find the FB message about the Weber BBQ - I was a very happy boy.

    First month since I started comping two years that I have won absolutely nothing :( Not doing anything different so fingers crossed my luck turns around soon.

    A mystery prize from Cult Labs (twitter win) *waiting for that.


    It was a decent start to the month, but petered out towards the end. But I've done ok, so it didn't matter. Pleased with my wins :)
