What's the common way of notification?

When I was a mega comped back in 2010/2011 the most common way I would find out I had won something was a prize simply turning up...no email, no call just a prize with a slip in it....

I had maybe one phone call and a couple of emails, direct messages etc but just turning up was standard.

I've tried to get back into comping a few times since then but as we all know it's become increasingly popular and one starts to lose heart and think why am I doing this for hours every day....I do enjoy it but it's easy to get disheartened isn't it? Anyway, I digress.....

To those who comp a lot and still win, is the random turn up still the most common way of finding out you've won something or has it changed?

Xxx lovely to be back here and thank you SO MUCH to all who post comps here, it's really so generous and team spirited of you x
back to comping after a 2 year break!! Mission… to win a gift for all my family for Christmas!
