    :rotfl: You WILL win. I thought exactly the same as you. I usually win something each week. I probably won't now that I've said that!..... Don't give up!

    Keep at it :) I've only been doing comps coming up to a month, so I can't wait for my first win :D It will come eventually :) My Mam has had some brilliant luck over the years, im hoping it's rubbed off on me!! If not I will probably keep going until it does lol, people who win on here keep me going.

    I've been comping since February - no win yet=( Got an email from Virgin Train once saying I had won a spa trip, then a "sorry this email was sent in error". I enter like 100 a day, all the ones ending the next day...

    Well, I'm going to mystery shop a wacky today to make up for my failings as a pro-comper. :D Hopefully something will come soon. Thanks for all the replies!

    It's early days yet Muffy - sometimes you have to wait 3 months for your prize to arrive, so you could've won but you just don't know it yet ;)

    Keep at it - it really is worth it! :D

    I know the feeling - you spend all that time thinking "ooh, I wouldn't mind that" and after about 1000 fantasies that don't come true, you start thinking . . .

    my one win - the £25 NT voucher keeps me going, but only just as they gave out 2000 of them and everyone seems to have gotten them!
