    Some really funny answers :T:rotfl::T

    I will make up a list of 20 or 30 comments then we will see who is a professional comper ;)

    The rate it is going you may need to make it 30 or 40.

    Great idea for a thread.

    I think this thread has become more the confessions of an average comper, than the habits of a professional. :)

    Let's get real, the "professional" doesn't log on to mse and doesn't share comps.

    They would use their time wiser!

    Someone who has a phenomenal win rate thanks to videos and staged comedy-style photos which they claim they've made on a rickety old iPhone but are actually produced by a son-in-law who owns a TV production company, and produces and edits the material to a standard that could never be achieved by a typical consumer. Oh, and banging on endlessly in comp entries about being "eternally skint" despite owning a £600k house in the Cotswolds and having won 2 brand new cars last year alone.

    Someone who spends most of the day every Thursday entering the two different Bauer cash comps she can for her post code area. The two for her area still accept 30 entries and she absolutely despises the captchas which never ever ever work first time. So that is 60 entries on a Thursday and 30 on a Friday swearing and cursing at those awful click the road sign (yes I have clicked the squares with the road signs and NOT the posts but you always tell me it is wrong), trying to draw a picture around a road sign, again telling me I am wrong. Oh and not forgetting click until all the numbers are gone, I feel like I am clicking forever as they take an age to bloomin disappear. I now need to ask myself is all this pain worth £1,000 or even £2,000???? Sadly yes it is :D

    I can't hear a Pulp song without going 'they won me a grand on the radio' (had to identify a band whose lyrics were mixed up with Churchill's speech). Also can't hear Ghostbusters mentioned without going 'that film won my first comp!' (TV, blu-ray, surround speakers, DVD, soudbar, etc)

    Also I said to my BF 'don't take the Christmas tree down yet - I want a pic as might need it for a future comp'. I'm always taking pics that I think I might need in the future lol.

    I tick a few on your list lol.
