Comps i'm focusing on in May in order to complete 2026 wishlist

That is a lot of subscriptions and sounds more like an addiction than a hobby. Have you ever compared how much you spend with what you have actually won and if the prizes were worth winning because £50 a week is a heck of a lot to spend on a hobby that should be fun and with very little cost.

If the OP can afford it, and wants to spend a large percentage of their time that respect it’s really very little different to any other hobby.
I just think it’s misleading when a list of wins is put up without that context of how much it’s also being spent and I hope the OP takes that on board.
All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have not could of.1 -
Theres some good prizes with daily mail plus, mirror rewards, sun club, times plus. It allows me to find comps. I can't find elsewhere too. This is the best way to win a 100 prizes a month.

yeah, I’m not giving the daily mail any of my money. For anything. Ever.

The best way to win a set number of prizes is to not set such unrealistic targets. You're just setting yourself up to fail.

So you’ve spent £3000+ to win £2405 and a couple of chocolate bars?! 🤷♂️

Just an idea to help you with your wish list. Maybe stop gambling and buy a few things each month from your wish list with the money instead. Not a gambling person myself but if I were i'd bet that you would complete your wish list much faster.
