Daily 'End when won' Magazine comps

Options
Hi all, I just wondered if the competitions on the magazine websites that are marked 'end when won' and you have to pick 3 numbers are worth doing? Has anyone here ever won from one of these? Here's an example of one of the competitions I am referring to - https://comps.digitalspy.com/competition/kindleforyourlittleone-220729.php

Thank you :smile:

    Been asked many times before but as search is so rubbish here is a previous one

    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5956138/matching-number-comps

    I don't have an account with the one you have posted so cannot see the numbers but basically if you multiply the 3 numbers together that's your chances

    say choice is 1 to 40 then 40x40x40 = 64,000 to one
