    Just keep going, someone has to win and if you try a comp you have got the same chance as anyone else. I have said this to others before but enter a comp and enjoy entering and any prizes are a bonus.

    It's a case of persevering. It took a while to get going but I've had 4 small wins, which keeps you going. Keep at it, the wins will come

    It's just the luck of the draw - I find if I enter comps to win one of a 1000, then I usually always get something. As for the biggies - don't think it wont ever be you because it will :D

    Don't worry- your wins will come soon.:)

    Try, if you haven't already, entering for tickets to events, shows etc in your area. There's a high chance of winning them as lots of people don't enter if they are busy or have other commitments at the time. And it's a great treat to go somewhere you wouldn't have thought of, or afforded to go to. :)
    Back to comping!

    Don't worry hun.. in the dim and distant past when I first started it was months before my first... and this week I have received one thing I won at the beginning of November and one from the beginning of December so your win may well be still out there waiting for slackers to send it to you ;)

    i know how you feel been entering and won nothing not even a penny. i really want to win somthing just to show dp that i could win as he thinks its a wast of time sob sob sob
    i used to hate it when aunts and grans would come up to me at weddings pinch my cheeks and say "your next, your next". well they stoped that crap when i started to do the same to them at funerals:rotfl:
  • I feel your pain! I have entered 280 comps (see my signature) and only won a book......but if folk are entering 150 comps a day perhaps I need to get my finger out and get entering!!!!
