    Hi All!
    Finally found a competition discussion thread! I have been dying to try comping for ages, I wanted to know how much time/how many comps per day you enter and how rewarding it is? I've literally never won a thing in my life. (well possibly a raffle once!) but I'd want to give it a good go, not half heartedly.

    Any tips for a beginner? I'm optimistically giving 2008 in 2008 a go too!

  • £2008??? Oh boy....

    In 6 month of comping i just about reached £500....

    Suppose that's why they call it a challenge - i'm up for giving it a go!!

    and the more prizes, means more gift recycling and less spending for our other challenge choccy!

  • I keep reading that some compers have had a very unlucky year and not won anything or hardly anything at all, so I thought if you want some lucky dust you could come to this thread and have some blown over you by people who have done nicely this year.

    I've been quite lucky so far, started in August and have a nice list of win, so happy to virtually share the luck if it would help at all.

    *blows lucky dust*

  • The dust hasn't reached me yet, hope the wind is in the right direction.
