Need to win a car

Isn't it funny how those with a good sob story somehow think they're more deserving of a free car than the rest of us who just crack on with life with all its ups and downs!0

I want to win a coffee machine ......so what !! We all have dreams
and I hope you all win yours whatever it is.
I get a lot of enjoyment reading what others win as well :j0 -
I do not know where you get the idea that I do not think you are not worthy of my time, it must be sad to think the worst of people by default. The exclamation mark was to show that I was jesting when I said "settle for less"
...
Your apology is accepted.
Ah, see, I didn't get the jest part. I guess it's easy to misinterpret words when typed as opposed to spoken.
I'm not sure you'll win a car but I do wish you luck with comping. Lots on here to enter and someone's gotta win, even if it's a small pick-me-up that will make you smile.Thank you to everyone who posts on the competitions boards. You all rock!0 -
Some of us have to make do with the bus0

You'll certainly have more chances to win a coffee machine, that's for sure lol ;p
Best of luck! Hopefully it won't be long until you're brewing up a storm. Don't forget to look out for those local comps too.Thank you to everyone who posts on the competitions boards. You all rock!0 -

I thought you would want a unicorn Bella :rotfl:
Sorry David but you have let yourself down by telling us all your sob story, none of us have it easy petIsn't it funny how those with a good sob story somehow think they're more deserving of a free car than the rest of us who just crack on with life with all its ups and downs!
I think the OP was pointing out his desperation for winning a car NOT that he's deserving of one! I think he made his point quite well and I didn't consider it a sob story as such, but maybe he thought he was among like minded people (Money Savers) and that he could tell us a little bit about his situation without being judged!
Good luck David! As others have said, you might not win a car but you will probably win something and that's what makes this hobby fun. Read the guides on getting started in Firefly's post and if you're on Facebook, check out some of the Comping Groups on there - There's too many to mention here but you will eventually stumble across them!Debbie0 -

The bus? Your lucky I dream about being able to take the bus. Me and the newt have to walk on burning broken glass with no shoes...Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.
Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.
(Wisdom, Courage, Self-control, Justice)
Willing acceptance - now, at this very moment - of what you can’t change0 -
At the end of the day, everybody has different hopes and dreams....yes, I would love to win a car or an ITV prize worth £100,000 but I would also love to win a Cath Kidson mug or a pretty bouquet of flowers because I love Cath kidson and no body ever buys me flowers! At the end of the day, a comper is a comper and they all live in hope of winning something, whether it is to cherish or sell on in order to build up the funds to buy something they really want or need. No comper should judge any other comper for their actions IF they are playing by the rules. Every comper has the same chance to win if they are playing by the rules so let's just support eachother and hope that by entering competitions honestly we all have a chance of winning a prize on our wish list!:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0
