What WON'T you do for a comp?

For me, apart from anything dishonest or that involved a hideous sob story the two things that I can't bring myself to do are really tedious rafflecopters (there's a few bloggers that do comps for lots of nice prizes but the hoops they want you to jump through make me avoid their blogs like the plague) or anything to do with appearing in public or on radio (way too much social anxiety for me).
What type of comps make you run a mile?

Anything that requires too much effort from me :rotfl:
So i`m talking about the photo and drawing effort ones, surveys etc I have entered pet ones but that`s only because I have a photo of my dog on my computer and I don`t have to do any effort to try and get my dog in a good position, in good light and in a good mood. I`ve also entered christmas tree photo effort ones...By saving other peoples christmas tree photos:p I know it`s really bad I know.
It also takes a lot of effort for me to post comments on fb and twitter, so I just copy and paste what other people put.
Tagging your best friends is also avoided.2017 Wins - Coco Pops, £100 Amazon voucher, Elf T-shirt, £250 Zalando Voucher and £250 FeelUnique Voucher, private gig concerts
