    I'm thinking of giving up comping, won zilch just lately:o maybe if i leave it a bit, maybe its cos my username ends in w and all winners are at beginning of alphabet, will miss ya all though:cry::cry::cry:



    Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! don't you dare young lady :naughty:


    Just keep at it! Its always a bit disheartening when you see others winning big or having several wins all on the trot but there is a win for you in the pipeline x

    I won 4 things last month which for some is good, for others rubbish and considering the amount I enter/post I'd say its rather pathetic!


    I really don't think its got anything to do with usernames or email addresses etc, it really is just luck of the draw and at the moment your luck isn't in



    You need a bird to poop on your shoulder ;):D

    i haven't posted comps for ages and i stated doing comps til l2am in the morning coz i coulsnt keep up.
    now got the laptop in the office gonna change my strategy.
    but don't give up

    I know how you feel. I've been entering comps for 18 months now and so far I've won £50 and a kids' recipe book. I must have entered between 500 and 600 competitions this year alone and one recipe book to show for it. If it wasn't for the occasional freebie that arrives I'd think my postie had died!

    edited to say its all a farce, I havent won anyhting decent for a month, off to be a perfect housewife instead and cook and clean etc

    I have just started stalking you on here, you cannot go running off now, I have not got the energy to track you down :p

    You will win again soon, you just got to keep at it.
