  • I've been 20-25 pages behind every day! On the up side, I have won a tangle teezer which was great timing as my hairbrush has broken!!
  • Not had a thing yet but, to be honest, I've not really entered much.

    To me, the prizes this year seem better than the last couple of years, a lot of people are saying all the prizes are gash this year but I don't see it that way.

    We're also missing a couple of the big prize sites this year, there were a few I was thinking about earlier but now all I can remember is the uSwitch one, I'm sure that was good for prizes but not seen any sign of it this year ... might kick in this week, I suppose, but not looking likely at the moment. Debenhams Beauty Club is another one that's usually OK, not super great prizes but consistently prizes you could do something with if you won.

    Still a couple of weeks to go ... Plod on, folks ... plod on

    Been entering loads every day but nothing yet.

    Avoided the tag your friends ones, and have only shared a few of the Spear & Jackson days on FB as I knew friends wouldn't be annoyed.

    Haven't looked at those on Twitter, and don't have Instagram either.

    No wins yet and entered loads, but then again loads of peeps are entering them and I'll be overjoyed to win anything at all (not that I expect to!).
    Wins since 2009 = £17,600

    MANY THANKS TO ALL OPS

    There are so many companies asking entrants to tag friends this year! So annoying! I wonder if 'we' could set up 3 fake profiles on Facebook that we could all tag? As they would not be real people, they wouldn't be annoyed at being tagged? :rotfl:

    How about Marty Lewis, Lucy Luck and Carly Comp for names?
    :TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea

    Great idea,


    I am so sick of the sob stories people begging to win a colouring book or a jigsaw because they or someone they know has an illness or have lost somebody, a dog or a goldfish, I have stopped even looking a Facebook comps


    I thought we could all make up a sob story and inundate the Competition organisers until they ban sob stories


    Oh well just a thought
