Must be my lucky week

Yesterday I won a DVD, today I've won some curling tongs and a feminine hygiene goody bag (!!). And just when I thought this competition lark was a waste of time too.

    No, I enter EVERY competition there is. I've had a few successes but never a big prize like a car or a holiday. Sometimes I don't even look to see what the prize is, I just enter all of them. I can't even remember where the comps where which these prizes came from :confused:

    I enter about 100 competitions a week. It was my new years resolution to enter every comp I found online and in mags and I've won about 10 prizes so far.

    Not fair I enter loads of competitions and win nothing.

    use to a win bits and pieces. But now that one man and his dog has the internet. I rarely win anything.

    I have know of a couple of people that have won cars from internet competitions.

    Not fair I want to win something.

    Stamp my feet.

    LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Well done.


    Yours
