Can I just ask, how many people enter postal comps as well as normal ones and have they won much from postal comps?

Ive been entering for a few weeks, i was just wondering if much can be won through them as a book of stamps cost me 3 squid and I'm a tight a*se
I quite enjoy posting them off and choosing nice looking cards though

Have you thought about doing the Royal Mail survey thing? Takes a bit of effort with sending/recieving/logging mail but you get 18 first class stamps every month! I now have 54 just sat around... I was gonna use them for postal comps but saving for my wedding invitations instead.0

Hehehe I signed up for this months ago, got my stamps etc through and then I had an email sayign they had enough people in my area so didn't need me but I could keep my 18 stamps.
Used them up ages ago on postcard comps :rotfl:Shame they didn't need me because the postman lost all my post tuesday - including a blockbuster DVD...:mad::mad::mad::mad: 0 -

I can afford it, I just want to know if its worth doing - wins wise. I enjoy doing them but as I'm on a money saving website, I thought I'd check it is worth doing them :T Wow princesspixiedust, thats a cool haul!
