    Welcome and good luck. There are lots of tips for ne compers here.

    But my main advice would be not to believe all the stories that you read in the press about how easy it is to win holidays and expensive electrical items. The reality is you might enter thousands and if you are lucky, win a box of toffees.

    Hi, welcome to the forum, I've moved your post to Compers Chat Corner, it's where we can discuss anything comp related. Have you read the guide for new Compers? Lots of really useful advice and info there.
    But Marg2k8's advice is very good, enter for fun and then forget. You might win, chances are you won't! But enjoy the ride! :D

    Hiya , and welcome ... my advice is enter as many comps as you can , and only for stuff you want or need. You'll be far more happier to win something you want than something you have no use for,. Social Media have lots of competitions on there
    Massive Thank you to all who post comps & answers on here .i'm very grateful , good luck all.
