Facebook group

Hi all. Been entering competitions using mse forum for about 20 days. Trying to approx 20 a day. I realise it's a numbers game and as yet I haven't had any wins. Imitating trying just for fun. I try to only enter things I'd like to win. I use Twitter a lot but laid off Facebook competitions as I didn't want to flood friends and families news feed with reposts - non compers would quickly be annoyed! So I set up a dummy Facebook. I noticed a supportive online groups within the forums and like the camaraderie. I asked in one for advice about setting up a comping Facebook account but didn't get a lot of responses apart from one who reposted a thread of someone from last year looking for Facebook friends. I added to the thread but think it's old and not currently read. I re read some old threads and asked a few of the people if they minded adding me but now have an onslaught of mostly Americans wanting to friend me on Facebook! I haven't got to grips with this old school treads forum yet. I found and got added to a mse Facebook group but has little activity. I cannot find any other comping groups on Facebook. Just looking for some support advice and motivation. If you are not a loon and fancy filling out my dummy Facebook friends profile and getting in touch with fellow compers chat - add me Lucy Lrsw on Facebook. I don't know anyone else who comps and I haven't won anything yet so I'm looking for inspiration and friendship.

  • I have a second Facebook profile for competitions, you can add me if you want to.
    I am also happy to share my personal Facebook profile to speak to you about motivation. I've been doing competitions exactly a year. I only do competitions through the forum, I have found competitions that are NOT posted here, generate a lot of spam. I have not made friends through the forum not sure why because I do post in the competition discussions.

    Happy to connect

    Facebook T&C's state only 1 account per person
    If they find out you have 2 accounts - they will close BOTH of them down permanently
