I started comping 28th feb this year, I only ever enter the comp ending threads and then I only enter the ones which I would like to win! The "Tickets" section never really applies for me as I live in Cornwall, and most of the tickets are for places miles away! Not only that but they do not give you much notice at all if you win any tickets!!!
Saying that.... Tickets seem to be the only thing I ever win
as for the first 2 weeks I entered every single competition in the comp ending threads, subsequently I won x2 tickets to the ideal home show..... x2 tickets to the Go Fishing show (which I gave away to someone on this forum) and just the other day I won x2 tickets to the London golf show!!!! So for this reason I hardly enter them, I feel they would be best suited to someone who actually wants to win them and who can actually get to where ever they need to get to!
I use roboform also, and have customized addresses in there also which I can click on edit and copy and paste the specifics in to an email, i.e one with just my name, address, one with my name, address and number and another with my name, address, number and email address.
I tend to leave entering the competitions until the very last minute as I have a 7yr old jibber jabbering savage and my OH is a copper so works odd shifts - this is soooo very annoying as he sleeps when I need to be doing the housework or more importantly comping!!!! I live in a bungalow so he hears every little noise i make! I cannot hide away at the other end of the house!!!
Saying that, I have won some fabulous wins in just 5 weeks! A little over £1600!
And just under £500 of that was from the ongoing Virgin Big Snap Competition! (Extremely addictive and very very time consuming)!!!!
It is my intention to start from the end of the comps board and work my way through it AFTER the bigsnap comp has ended.... I may have a weeks break first though
I enter approx. 65% of the comps on the comp ending threads.
I have entered every day since I started, and will continue to do so, some prizes take months to arrive and even then they just turn up I am told!!!!
So keep beavering away and I hope your comping luck will pick up for you (and Connacher)
Ple'ma an bysva?
