Its so common now.I think the main reason why people do this is to bump up their wins total. If you win tickets etc with no intention of using them you shouldn't be adding that amount to your 2008 total.

Which is why I never added the amount of the Tut ticket to my total (I never entered for the tix & even now can't see it mentioned on the OP) nor the Esprit £5 vouchers or most of the impulse MP3 downloads as I passed them on to others.2023 wins - Rice Krispies, Avene Micellar Gel, Barbie Toy, £20 Apple Gift Card, KFC 6 piece bargain bucket, Chloe Nomade perfume, Barbie Toy (second one), Sanctuary Spa Sleep Balm, E45 Moisturising Lotion, Trolls Hamper, 12 Tonie Characters, Sure deodorant, Good Home Utensil holder, £5 Costa Gift Card, Neutrogena Micellar Jelly, Soap & Glory Mascara, Persil capsules,0 -
I'm the same. I never do those esprit comps. If I have a win thats only worth a few quid I never add it. I don't enter for tickets either (unless its a concert in Manchester) but most of the ticket comps are for london!

Nor the paint-ball vouchers that "just turned up", cos I didn't use them either and no one wanted the Esprit vouchers I won......Our Granddaughter, Caitlin Freya is now 7 years old

100% do them as I go along, it's the only way really. Use the comp ending threads as a back up only, just to see if there is any missed. Mind you I'm on here nearly all day sometimes so I find it easy to keep up as much as possible.2023 wins - Rice Krispies, Avene Micellar Gel, Barbie Toy, £20 Apple Gift Card, KFC 6 piece bargain bucket, Chloe Nomade perfume, Barbie Toy (second one), Sanctuary Spa Sleep Balm, E45 Moisturising Lotion, Trolls Hamper, 12 Tonie Characters, Sure deodorant, Good Home Utensil holder, £5 Costa Gift Card, Neutrogena Micellar Jelly, Soap & Glory Mascara, Persil capsules,0 -
