    here's a question and it's normally connected with cruise competitions

    Daily Mail weekend supplement on 2nd page has a competiton for a cruise with ocean village
    also in the same paper is a leaflet offering a cruise for two people
    but they have different references however they do stipulate one entry per person
    so do you think these are different comps? or the same?

    online entries here! are they the same?

    Just been on the website the leafelt says caribbean cruise but the online is med cruise

    Morning all! :)

    The new Comping Guide - Getting Started & Other FAQs is now stickied to the main board & open for business.

    Please feel free to have a read & post on there with tips you have or questions which aren't covered by the Guide.

    Happy Comping! :)


    Just been reading the new sticky. You've done an absolutely ace job VelvetGlove. Really comprehensive and very easy to follow.

    I think I'll nominate it for post of the month!
    From MSE Martin - Some General Tips On Holiday Home Organisations and Sales Meetings

    DO NOT TOUCH ANY OF THEM WITH A BARGEPOLE!

    No need for a nomination :o I just wanted to contribute more to this Forum & as I can normally only find a very small number of comps that haven't already been posted, I thought I could help out this way :)

    But thanks for your sentiment & peej, I'm so glad it helped! :)
    Sad because you don't know what to do? :sad: Comping question? Take a look in the Comping Guide to find out :smiley:
