    Hi

    I have also just started doing the competitions more regularly - I won a necklace on the Oli pass the parcel but it has not arrived so I dont think it will ......

    But I have entered about 200 competitions and not a sausage from any of them, I wll carry on though

    Good luck

    My Oli pass the parcel prize arrived today, I think alot of peoples Oli prizes are just starting to get sent out to them.
  • Hi, I'm still waiting too, but only been comping for 3 weeks. Entering about 250-300 per week, am really trying to be patient and hoping for a nice suprise one day!!
  • Hi! I've probably entered around the same amount as you but not won anything yet. In the first few days I would enter 100's because I was so excited but after a while I thought it was silly to spend so much time entering comps for no wins. So now I only enter ones I reeeally want to win and I only do so when I have time/I'm bored. Good luck :) Hopefully you'll win something soon!

    Ive been comping for about 18 months now. I enter loads each day, any spare time i have is spent on here, MSE is my second home!

    remember it can take a bit after you start comping to get a win sometimes because the comps might not have closed and then they have to draw the winners and then contact/send the prizes out

    you will win soon - wins are like buses, none for a while then several at once!

    OMG! I have entered about 100 so far and had only two wins, so maybe I'm not as unlucky as I think! I stop and start entering comps, it's depressing not winning. When I first started (November) I was all excited, now I'm not so hopeful, especially when you read people's lists of winnings as their sig. My winnings were a stapler and two cushion covers.........................I wanted money and a car!! But I will keep going,you never know that big win could be just around the corner..................:o

    Hi, I have won a couple of things this year so probably shouldn't elbow my way into this thread but I want to say that my first prize of the year was a floatation experience (for one) which is no good for me cos I don't live anywhere near any of the venues - so its going begging and I'd love it to go to someone who hasn't had any luck yet this year. So if anyone's handy for London (London Bridge), Chiswick, Clapham, Reading, Tyneside, Glasgow, Dorking, Merseyside (St Helens), Leeds or Oxfordshire (don't know whereabouts in Oxfordshre!) and you fancy it let me know (Expires November 08).:D
