  • Hey all!!

    Never posted on this thread so thought this would be a nice time to start! Some of you may remember I was a regular comper in the summer holidays but this has all changed the last few months and I have not been able to do so :( This is due to the mounds of uni work i recieve (people who say first year is easy are lying!!) and the fact I got a job which both keep me occupied.

    Okay you are probably wondering the point of this rambling post, well here it is - I am going to go back into comping ridiculous amounts lol (for me anyway!)) and would just like to say "Hi all" to everyone and also thanks to everyone who posts the comps and hopefully now I will be able to contribute some more in this area!

    Thanks for reading!

  • Glad you feel so welcome tttJay :)

    Rather than trying to catch up, why don't you try to stay up to date, then when you have spare time (because you are upstraight) then you could start working your way backforwards/forwards through the older comps? Otherwise always playing catch up is no fun & a little stressful!

    As my BF says, it helps to be organised & optimised for maximum comping :D Even though it is just a hobby for me I like to have the right tools for it :)
    Consider the following to help you with comping:
    • Make sure that you have either roboform or autofill to make comping forms a little faster to complete.
    • You may want to think about setting up an email signature if you use outlook/outlook express so it already has your name, address & phone number on it (then you just delete what isn't needed)
    • AutoHotKey for Firefox is brilliant once set up - a key combination to fill in your email address & other details on those annoying flash forms with robo & autofill won't recognise :)
    • Snaplinks - to open multiple links at just one click of your mouse button (helps to open a page full of comps then you can work through the tabs one at a time wihlst the others are still loading up!)
    • Don't enter every comp going, be selective there are loads of comps out there & entering for a gig or book that you wouldn't want is a waste of your valuable comping time & also could mean that someone desperate to win that prize misses out :)
    I'll shut up now :D Good luck though & if you have any other questions then do yell out & a passerby will stop & answer :D
    Hi velvet how do you get snaplink and how do you open up loads of comps? I am such a novice at this and it takes me ages. I did get robotform and then it said my trial was over and to keep it under 10 items. Anyone with any help at all for a newbie that really wants to win. I went to a carer's xmas lunch today and there were over 200 prizes and some on my table got 5 and 4 and I didn't get one boo hoo. thanks all Taffy
