Meet Our Latest Winners!

After taking a break from comping I recently got back into it as I became ill and had to stay in bed for a week. Luckily my laptop stayed with me!

I've mostly entered Facebook comps and I've already won two things which have cheered me up immensely:

A Waterproof tube bag (that Makes me look forward to my next camping trip!)

A XS led lantern.

I've not got bitten by the bug again and can't wait to see what I win next!
Perhapsbeing ill wasent the worst that could happen!

I've been comping for a while now and whilst having a severe 'dry spell' I thought about quitting my hobby as it just wasn't paying off. I'd had a really bad morning at work and at 6 months pregnant I felt very emotional ! On my lunch break I checked my emails and low and behold I'd finally won something again!! And it was the best thing ever !! A baby gift hamper filled with toiletries, blankets and a beautiful fabric bouquet made out of baby clothes worth £250!!! I was so chuffed !!! It really cheered me up and has spurred me on to keep going ! Never give up beacuse your winnings are just around the corner and they always come when you least expect it !! Needless to say my afternoon at work was much more enjoyable knowing I had my prize waiting for me when I got home !!

I was very lucky in October to win lots of lovely prizes! I was especially pleased to win a compers news competition with a photograph of miniature cakes and sweets made into a heart. This month I plan to enter more 'effort' competitions and hopefully build on my success. :)

My other wins for October include:

☆ Original art of a mermaid princess pony from Mimtii's Tumblr giveaway. (pictured)
☆ The White Road: In Search of Porcelain (E. de Waal) from Goodreads.
☆ Pro Shade and Brighten Shimmer Kit from the raspberrykiss blog.
☆ Diva Beach Curls Wand from Laura's Lovely Blog.
☆ Rainbow Narwhal Plushie from Super Kawaii Studios.
☆ Undadogz merchandise.

☆ Bags of glitter from the ZingZingTree.
☆ Mango and Papaya bath goodies from I Love... Cosmetics.
☆ Contemporary Design Africa by Tapiwa Matsinde from Dynamic Africa.

I can hardly believe it that I have won an Eve Mattress worth £500! Plus it is a fancy one with a story printed on it. Plus, I won tickets to go to the Good Food Show in Glasgow, with super theatre passes to see Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood.
I am sitting on the ceiling I am so high with delight!

When I entered the competition for two tickets at our local theatre I thought I could not miss the opportunity to go to a live burlesque's show. When I heard I won the two tickets I was so please. It saved me £20 that I couldn't afford to pay for.
My mother has been diagnosed with Lymphoma so she was my first thought to take with me.
It was amazing to see the old theatre transformed as a few years ago it was basically falling down. The theatre looked stunning and took our breath away even before the curtain opened.
The show itself was a mixture of acts from modern and classic burlesque dances but the star of the show was Pi the mime. A male performer that was breathtaking with his form of modern and classic dance. You could tell he was professionally trained and you could hear a pin drop while he preformed.
Made a great treat for my mother so thank you for posting the link here.

After returning to full time work after maternity leave Ive found it so easy to lose motivation and as a result have totally lost my mojo as well as my focus...BUT I'm determined to get it back and this month I've dedicated some time to getting back into my old ways (with the help of half term time)
I've won with mumsnet A prize draw for a £100 voucher and another £100 John Lewis voucher from British Gas on Twitter. Such fab wins for this time of year! I'm more focussed than ever on spending time on fewer comps but prizes I really really want.

Thanks PF

The year started off pretty good with several wins including £100 Itunes gift cards,Race for Life Goodies around the same value, 4 Wasjig jigsaws, a T-shirt from Ray Quinn's tour at a local theatre which when I went to pick it up turned into tickets for the show instead which was brilliant, all via the Prizfinder, and thirteen books via Goodreads. I ended October with another book from Goodreads and the best one yet a Light up handbag from BagtoWear.co.uk via the Prizefinder - worth $225 (about £150) - I love it :)

I look forward to hopefully finishing off the year on a further high to match or improve on last year's tally of £1100's worth of prizes.

You could have knocked me down with a feather when I got an email to tell me I had won the Somersby Cider free prize drawn for submitting a review about their cider. I was so delighted, it was £50 worth of John Lewis vouchers - they arrived only two days later in a recorded delivery envelope! My biggest win this year to date! Thank you Prizefinder!

I won an amazing 4 day, 3 night holiday to France with Brioche Pasquier Croissants, which I entered through Prizefinder. It truly was a 'money can't buy' experience! The holiday included travel through Paris to Nantes, where stayed in the Mercure with a fantastic view of the marina. I did lots of sightseeing including the chateau, gothic cathedral and botanical gardens. We were then taken by taxi the next day for two days at Puy de Fou theme park (see picture), which is a historical theme park with lots of outdoor plays. This included tickets to cinescenie, which was an outdoor night time show with a cast of 3000! I stayed in Il de Clovis, which is a medieval village with each little house on stilts over a lake! For the final leg of the tour, it was back to Nantes and the Mercure hotel, where I was able to do more sightseeing. It truly was an amazing experience!

I've been entering competitions for some time with a little bit of luck. This year I started entering competitions on Twitter and have been waiting nervously to see if I could win anything. This October I was very excited to see that I will be mentioned in a tweet confirming me as the winner. They had also sent me a direct message, so I was really pleased to know that it was easy to find out when you win on Twitter. My prize was a £100 voucher for my phone top up, they got in touch to check which network I was with and sent it out very quickly. The best part is I can now phone all my friends and tell them about it, it will certainly keep me connected! It has also make me keen to try more competitions on Twitter especially as it's so easy. I'm now really hoping to win some prizes that I can put away for Christmas, so I better get moving!
