A new hobby!

I’ve enjoyed entering competitions in the past but it ain’t half time consuming. The best thing I’ve won was my XBOX One about 4-5 years ago which I still use today. I’ve decided to make comping my hobby along with volunteering for charity in 2019.

Do you comp for a hobby? How do you keep it fun?

Do not expect to win anything, and if you do win it will be enjoyed a lot more.

Just enter as many as you can and forget about them.

I comp for a hobby, Like Jambo says enter and forget about them and then when you win you feel happy.

2018 was a great year doing this hobby i won £3581.16 in prizes.

I love entering and do it for fun, its quick, easy and free to do!

I don't dwell over not winning, i didn't have it in the first place so don't miss it.

Ive had some wonderful prizes in the past and it's these that keep me coming back when I have the spare time.

You have to enjoy it or you won’t stick with it. I enjoy finding competitions that haven’t already been posted almost as much as entering and when I’m having a dry spell, the messages of thanks from people who’ve won from my posts keeps me going. I haven’t won many competitions over the last few years but the few prizes I have won have been decent enough to spur me on.

I’ve revently started comping as a hobby for the last 2 weeks. I haven’t won anything yet though &#55357;&#56852;

Are there any other websites that advertise comps that anyone knows of?

I can see from your name youre clearly a gamer (Love Destiny btw)

I literally enter comps in between matches on Overwatch, so literally in my spare time.

If I win - great! If I don't thats fine too

I just do it for no more than an hour a day, usually while i'm side watching something on netflix. I do skip a lot of competitions now and only enter for things I want or things I can give to friends/family. Don't bother with click 2 wins or mag dailies and skip most facebook competitions too. I wouldn't say I enjoy doing it, but I don't dislike it either? It's just part of my routine like brushing my teeth or getting a shower :rotfl:

Destiny is life! I’m a veteran

I want to win anything gaming related. A new console would be grand.

A new hobby!
