Until 2014 I’d never comped over Christmas and, if I’m perfectly honest, the whole thing was pretty overwhelming - and I didn’t attack the season with anywhere near the gusto of some of my fellow compers! All the same, I was pretty happy with the way things turned out, averaging slightly better than a prize a week (good by my standards!).
As the goodies have now finished rolling in, here’s a little roundup…
First came the Maz toy and what might best be called a hamper of Energizer batteries (both highly useful when you have rugrats like me) from a couple of Facebook comment draws. Next up was a Christmas jumper from Sports Direct (should come in handy for Christmas jumper selfies next year…). Then came the lean patch, interrupted only by the late announcement of a Movember competition I’d forgotten about – enough shaving paraphernalia to last me half a year. This was followed by some stacking pots from Happy Jackson’s Instagram draw and a Soap & Glory body scrub, the latter from Soap & Glory’s Do-a-Doodle tongue-twister video comp, which I owned like a boss ;o)
Finally – and not shown here are the 50 McLotto tickets from Lottoland and the Karcher holster for window cleaning tools.
In sum then: chuffed. But quite worn out by the whole ordeal – it’s now mid January and I don’t think I’ve managed 30 comps since Christmas Day!
