    Ok thank you! Just heard I've won a dog lead! :) ill keep trying ��

    Well done, the first of many!

    Entering 50-200 competitions a day usually gets me quite a few wins at the end of the month.
    Most competitions end at the end of the month so you may have won but not been notified yet or the winner hasn't been chosen yet.
    Entering via most routes will help with wins as you have more chance of winning, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Gleam, Rafflecopters, Email, Web, Mag dailies etc. I would leave Click to wins until you've finished entering all the other competitions you want to enter.
    Enter and forget.
    Good Luck!
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.

    Asked and answered on numerous occasions - anything from 1 to 1,000 or more a day.

    I won a couple of holidays and a small David Dickinson cheque, way back in the good old days. But I guess there are too many of us involved now. So the only significant win I can recall in the past twelve months was an iPad which I sold on eBay for decent beer money, although it cost a fortune to post securely.

    The slogan comps were always the best for holidays because they put so many people off. But nowadays, even when there is an "effort required", the organisers almost always choose the winners at random - so everyone in can still win!
