No wins yet!

This is my first post but i've been lurking since April. At first I entered hundreds a week & now i've eased up a bit. I have still not won anything. I just wanted to know if any one else is in the same position? I'm keeping positive and hope I have my first win soon. Good luck everyone Elaine.

    keep going, someone on here was saying they hadn't won and felt down and then won a brill prize!! It's an old cliche but true - if you don't enter you can't win!

    Took me ages to win anything - maybe three months - and then won a tea cosy! The good ones are rolling in now however! Keep at it.

    I was only moaning last week about not winning anything and it turns out I had won - I just didn't know it. I've won four comps in the last two days - all small prizes but its brill. Deffo stick at it!
  • i have not won much of note less than £60 worth of stuff either. and have been doing at least 50 a day sometimes over 100 like you since february. but am hoping my time will come soon.

    Keep it going, you'll get there. I only started in March and had a huge, huge win within a couple of weeks - http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=795963&highlight=periyar - which helped to keep me going. You've made your first post now and can start participating in the forum and perhaps even post some comps yourself. Try some freebies as well so you feel as though there's a few little things coming in to keep you going until that big ITV win comes your way.

    Best of luck to you Elaine (and you carlm)!!!!!! Still a long way to get that £2008 in 2008, plenty of time to reach that target and then some if you keep going.

    Hi,

    I have been entering for about a month and haven't won anything yet either. Have been motivated by all the people that are winning though!

    I look forward to the day that I can post my first win!:beer:
