In May I'm aiming for a 100 wins. Hopefully can tackle at least 20 from my wishlist as well. Have anyone won 100 prizes in a month before and any tips for me to achieve my target.
Had 13 wins in April but need to up my comping. Aiming to enter around 10,000 in May.

You were very lucky to win thirteen comps in April, but the reality for most compers is that they enter thousands of comps a month, and win little or nothing. I couldn't say how many comps I've entered this year, as I don't keep exhaustive records, but it's probably several thousand a month, and I've won absolutely nothing so far this year. Last year I probably entered a similar amount and averaged one win every three weeks or so, and that figure was boosted by winning a comp a week for the last three months of the year. I suspect fellow compers experience will be much the same.

High Expectations
To be honest you would be lucky to win 100 in a year, 10 years ago I was winning on average about 25 a month and since then there has been influx of compers
Not saying it’s impossible, it’s luck of the draw and I enter 2000 - 3000 comps a month including mag daily’s and I’m lucky to get 3 or 4 wins now,
Thanks To Everyone Who Posts :beer:1 -
2 wins and 98 to go and out of the 20 things I'm focusing on in order to complete my wishlist. I'm able to tick two prizes off. Happy so far. They should come in thick and fast now.

I need to up my comping only done 1000 this month so far but mixed it up done newspaper subscription comps, text, phone in, radio,purchase,Facebook,Instagram,tik tok, instant win,email.
Anyone got any tips for me to it my 100 prizes this month?

100 prizes per month, you'll be lucky, that's a huge increase, are you planning on sleeping? How long have you been comping out of interest.

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 -
you have grand ideas. People here have been comping for years and enter thousands a month and are lucky to get several a year.
