Nothing for me hoping my 1st win will happen soon, started comping at the beginning of August, entering about 50 a day so fingers crossed for next month.
Well done winners :-)0 -

Never give up hope , but you need to enter a lot more than ten a day.
Try the comps with a large number of smaller prizes.

I've been very lucky and won some lovely prizes:
Weekend in Paris, including tickets to a gig of my choice (Cineworld)
Smoothie cup (Asda)
Santoro stamp (not sure, probably one of the papercraft magazines)
Lava lamp kit for my daughter (First News I think)
We also went away on a weekend that I won a few months ago, in the New Forest, so had a month of definitely appreciating my comping hobby.0 -

Don't wish to discourage you but I entered just short of 10,000 comps in September and (because of the types of comp I was entering) don't expect to win much, if anything at all :cool:"If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together... there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you. "
