    Hi fellow challengers.

    I can't believe another month is nearly over, February has gone quick. Since my last post I've had my first mag daily win of the year - a soap on a rope from Humbled & Co from a Good Housekeeping competition. I've also had a win as a direct result of my February newsletter challenge - yarn & pattern from Stylecrafts Yarn. Unfortunately the same can't be said for my C2W/Simply media challenge but I knew it was a long shot. I'm not putting any more time and effort into these; I'll just do them as and when I come across them on other websites.

    My motivational list for March:
    More competitions less entries.
    Avoid the main forum until the ability to hover, skip returns.
    Relax & reduce screen time.
    Closing - a different date everyday using random.org
    Happy positive thoughts.

    March Closing Date Challenge
    1st March - competitions closing on 5th March.
    2nd March - competitions closing on 19th March. Blu-ray received from Blueprint Review.

    My birthday March 23rd can we have something to do with 23?  
    Congrats  @lucinad on winning the February challenge by posting a whopping 39 comps. 

    I was going to exclude lucinad from the March challenge just to give the rest of you a chance, but she seems to enjoy it so much that I didn't have the heart to.

     @mansey I did think of trying to include your suggestion of 23 in the March challenge, but I think some people would post 23 comps on the first day (not mentioning any names L) and there can't be many comps around to win 23 of anything, but I have thought of something birthday related.

    March is my birthday month and mansey's birthday month.  My star sign is Pisces, the sign of the fish  and mansey's is Aries, the sign of the ram, so my third monthly challenge to you all is either to post or win a competition that contains the word fish or a competition that contains the word ram in the title.
    (Has to be part of the prize (it doesn't count if the entry method in the title is instagram)

     For example a pair of fishnet tights, a fishing rod, a pram, a bottle of Drambuie or a trampoline. The letters must be in the correct order, consecutive and in the title. 

    5 points for a win and one point for a post. 

    Good luck everyone.

    I've found a comp to post to enter my own challenge.  I've posted a comp to win a glow in the dark goldfish.  Off now to hunt for a competition including 'ram'.

    Spent over an hour searching, but have failed miserably.  Tried looking for comps to win a break in Ramsbury, Framlingam, Ramsbottom, Ramsgate, as well as trampolines, prams, gramophones, drama boxsets.  I give up for now and hope the rest of you have more luck than I have had.

    In spite of saying I was going to stop searching, I couldn't let go and have now been searching for books by Gordon Ramsay or meals out at his restaurants as well as books about tramps or gramps or car ramps.  That's another hour of my life I will never get back.  Haha.
    Better go and enter some comps now.  If I enter and win the glo in the dark goldfish one I posted, do you think I would stand a chance of winning @Lucinad's challenge of the worst/most useless prize?

    I've been catching up on competitions most of the day as I've been lacking recently. 
    Every comp I find that isn't on MSE I find myself trying to get fish or ram out of them. 
    What have you done to me?! :lol:
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.

    Obviously I'm driving you to be nuts as I am!.

    I did find this one on twitter  https://twitter.com/BotSpotterBot/status/1233852618935611393 but thought I had better not post that one. haha.

    Just been to Asda and on the way round, I was thinking to myself "What about comps for Bramley apple pie or sauce, or Bram Stoker novels or Charlotte Rampling films or Peter Frampton album. 

    Just wait for @Lucinad to come along and she'll find them all.
