    I tick yes if I'm really desperate for the prize - like a holiday or cash. I always think that if I pretend to show an interest in them then they may take one in me and let me win ;)
  • Good ol Roboform :)

    Swear by it, saves lots of time - just a couple of clicks, ok maybe the occaisonal form it wont fill in but it's great.

    Imagine the state of our fingers if there was no roboform/autofill haha!!

    I'm still doing mine by hand (although I'm aware of roboform) as I enjoy doing it :o

    I put no when I remember & I don't reckon it affects the chance of winning mostly.

    For example - telegraph competitions:

    What days do you buy the Telegraph?
    I DO NOT buy the Telegraph.

    Did I win - Yes :D
