    What's everyone's secret? Been comping every day for years now and I've never managed to win a holiday. Have won some short hotel breaks though (in the Scotland). Is it best to enter competitions that require effort?

    Absolutely loved reading all of those - you lucky ducks!! I'd be interested to hear how long all of you have been comping too :)

    I won 5 nights in Mauritius last year to watch the inaugural Afrasia Bank Mauritius Open. It was absolutely amazing and I had only been comping for a couple of months when I won.

    I've also just recently won two nights plus dinner in a hotel in Devon :)

    Thank you to everyone that posts, you're all amazing and good luck to those who haven't won a comp yet! Xxx

    We were lucky enough to win £2k holiday vouchers with no or very long expiry and £1k spending money so we waited til the kids were two and a half and went to Disney with £1k and the other £1k we put towards Spain another year! :D

    Also won a couple of nights in a posh hotel in the lakes, that was lovely, felt a bit out of place though :D

    Went to Disney again this year with the £2k my husband won last year.

    Haven't won much in ages, must be due something!

    i won a holiday to paris in november with icelolly/ann summers. We went in May and it was very lovely :)

    I signed up for a newsletter and won it that way. I'd never won a holiday before, though i had won a hotel stay in london before. I'd been comping off and on for about 3 years when i won.
