Lucky with Advents

I'm being so lucky with advents this year.

I've taken a long break from comping from 2016 til the last month or so.

I'm not entering any fb or tw ones anymore as they just get so many entries and it leads to bans etc..

So far this month I've won:

Beard Trimmer worth £120
Lotil Skincream worth £28
Bath Set worth £30
Vegan Cakes and Sauces worth £20
Pendant in Solid Silver worth £75
Designer/Luxury candle that I have no idea what it's worth but looks amazing
A luxury sun lotion worth £46

Plus maybe a dozen wins that are worth less than £10

Anyone else feel like its 2010-2012 again with wins coming in every day nearly?

Hope you are all being really lucky!

    lovely, well done :T:T
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png




  • I've been comping on and off since 2014 and got back into it in September after a friend had a win on Facebook. I've won 4 prizes since then and 3 of them have been in the last 5 weeks or so. So far I've won a book on cults (one of my sisters is studying forensic science, so ideal if the topic comes up in her course), an ebook from a gleam comp, Pavarotti on Blu Ray and a WEM this morning in the Andrex puppy toy advent (my cousin has a 6 year old daughter and 4 year old twin boys, so will be a belated xmas present for them)
    December wins- Andrex puppy toy, Yorkshire Ripper book, Dog treats, Cat Treats, 2020 South Devon Calendar
