    Apart from a 'runner-up' prize in the New Year- a voucher for £20 off their chair products- so I'd have to spend quite a bit to use it.

    Nothing since.


    I don't wish to be rude, but that's not much of prize.

    Suspect they sent the same to everyone who entered that mag daily.

    The winner's voucher was worth either £150-£250-would have been enough to get a chair of some sort- I checked the prize provider's website before starting to enter.

    I've been reading these comments and was totally in agreement with them - haven't had a mag daily win for at least two years. However, received a WEM this morning from Woman and Home, so am over the moon!
    It's only the 2nd prize this year so very welcome :)

    My husband and I have only been doing these this year and have won 5 times between us since then, so I would say it is definitely still possible.

    I have had 16 wins on them (various mags) this year. Most of them were ticket wins to exhibitions (home building show etc) so I have now stopped entering for those type as I feel almost guaranteed to win them :rotfl:

    Have won some theatre tickets as well.

    I used to win 1 or 2 a month on the mag Dailies but now I get nothing for months and then 2 or 3 together. The last spell of that being before Christmas. It's really quite odd. Im not convinced all entries go through, particularly at busy times. Funnily enough my 2 or 3 wins spell before christmas coincided with me changing things up and entering on my phone instead of desktop. Got bored with that as it takes me longer on a mobile device.
    It's almost like somebody pushes a button and says "Ok we'll let her have a couple of wins now" Must be due another batch soon :)

    Out of interest, those of you that have had more luck lately do you enter on a mobile device or PC ?

    my wins seem to come in 2's or 3's as well.... strange! I enter them on desktop as its quicker but won once this year and that was for a competition I entered once by accident as I knew I couldnt make it.
    Thanks to everyone that posts :T:money:

    Same thing happened to me. I won a light fitting that I couldnt even remember entering for. Looked it up & didnt even remember the question. I've reverted back to trying my phone tonight but it wont last..takes too long

    Maybe an experiment of entering at a different time of day.

    I enter on my mobile, usually very late. Try to enter most days but don’t always manage.

    I won a 55” smart TV last week.
