A thread for chatting about the Advents.
The Advents competitions board is here
There appears to be a lot of missing comps this year - early ones like Welcome to Yorkshire etc - and still too many comps on IG. How do people comp on IG without getting banned?

You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but you can never please all of the people all of the time2 -
I've not had a good look at the advent comps yet but I wonder if they can be split between web, FB and IG comps (separate threads) or is that too much to askThrifty Till 50 Then Spend Till the End

I've not had any issues getting banned from IG in a good few months now and I enter a lot of them on there! I'm hoping that means they've made some improvements!I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Competition Time, Shopping & Freebies and MoneySaving boards.
