    Has the Compers Challenge ran it's course or do we think it is just a quiet time?

    I do like having targets and trying to match the (few) wins into the framework. Apart from a real goodie at the beginning of the year though, it has been hard work winning anything....managed to get at least one a month so I'm not really complaining....not really....count me in to sign up next year.

    congrats on the C2W win mansey - I've dabbled with them occasionally but not surprisingly never won.

    I'm the same as others, with wins generally few and far between recently - so nothing to report.

    Did anyone win one of the 3000 cups?

    I can't even win a mug :rotfl:

    I didn't, but can't remembering entering for one,lol. I have won 6 months of socks (a pair a month).
    I agree with what everyone has said about the wins being few and far between, i'm sure we all won more last year.

    I didn't enter for the mug -I wasn't keen on the design and I already have a cupboard full of 'spare' mugs :D

    Well done on the socks win indie - do you get to choose your socks or are they a surprise each month?

    You choose a design and they send you a different pair every month. I choose comedy ones.So will be interesting to see what they send

    Eurgh, it's not been great this year, I saw a friend this week, asked if I'd had any wins this year, so I read off my compers challenge, made me realise my wins have been pretty crap this year :(

    Oh dear, sorry, I seem to be in the minority winning loads more this year than last year.......although not difficult since I didn't win anything last year :rotfl:

    Although I always enjoy taking part in each year's challenge anyway, this year being my best ever comping year has definitely added to the enjoyment of taking part! :D

    I'm sorry to read that some of my fellow challengers are not experiencing the same though :( It's definitely more fun when we are all winning together! :)

    I'm guilty of sometimes updating my list on page 1, but not always adding an accompanying new reply to mention my wins too, sorry! Been a busy few months, but will try to make time in the future......

    ......so an update for last few months......

    2 books (rare twitter wins - yay!)
    set of pens
    £50 Waitrose gift card
    £100 Tesco gift card (first ever text win - yay!)
    £100 to spend on clothes
    £50 Co-Op gift card
    A Roberts Radio
    £50 of Audiobook downloads
    £25 of Yarn (cotton)

    I don't knit/crochet (so gave the last prize to my Mum's friend who does), but I entered in an effort to tick off the letter Y on the challenge :D and now only have 5 letters left.....tricky ones though, so don't think I'll get them all!

    Need to enter more Facebook, Email and Rafflecopter to complete those 1000 by end of the year. Don't think I'll manage email, but hopefully the other two :)

    I don't think I'm doing things differently this year, but my luck has certainly changed! Hopefully it can too for those finding they have had less recently :)

    Good Luck :D and Well Done on all the wins so far! :)
  • Hi guys!! Sorry I've not been popping on here much, life has been a bit hectic!! I have still been plodding along entering comps though, and have been keeping track of wins, how many comps entered etc... I just haven't updated challenge for a little while, but will try and do that in a few days once this head cold has gone cos I can't think straight right now :(

    I have actually had quite a good year for wins, September has certainly been kind to me!!! I have won Dorothy Perkins #TuesdayShoesday twitter comp, A vtech camera on instagram, and..... TWO breaks away!!! :eek: Which I still can't believe!! lol Both of them mag dalies..

    First one is 2 nights for 2 at The Belfry in Warwickshire with breakfast both mornings, 2 course dinner one evening and 55 minute spa treatment each.

    Second one is 2 nights for 2 in a self catering cottage with a hot tub in Sussex.

    Busy trying to work out what dates we can go and trying to find someone to look after the kids :rotfl:
