Every day for the first week of 2013 we're giving away a £10 Amazon voucher - and every time you enter one of our daily comps, you'll also get an entry into our grand prize draw to win a fabulous KINDLE FIRE HD!
Today is our first competition and as it's the first day of a brand new year, we'd like to know what your comping resolution is. Here are some ideas:
• Registering for Pinterest or Instagram
• Trying some creative competitions
• Setting up Google Alerts to find competitions for your dream prizes
• Visiting the 'new competitions' section daily on the PrizeFinder - instead of the 'closing soon' one!
• Making home-made postcards for postal entry competitions
• Starting a spreadsheet to record your wins
• Subscribing to a new magazine (how about Compers News?!)
• Listening to the radio and texting/calling in for on-air comps
• Applying for TV gameshows
• Entering more text competitions
To enter today's competition, make sure you're registered with The PrizeFinder and logged in to your account - then leave a comment on this post telling us your comping resolution. We have an approval process so your comment won't appear straight away, but as long as you post it before midnight you'll be in the draw!
Don't forget, every entry you make into our daily competitions gives you one entry into the grand prize draw for a Kindle Fire HD!

2013 Comping Resolutions
I want to try and get out of the house more and vary where I shop so that I can access competitions from different supermarkets who might also supply different brands to where I normally shop. Most of all I want to remember not to be too downhearted when I dont win a competition that I was "absolutely convinced I would win"!!

To use my brain and more and enter more tie-breaker competitions and not always enter just the big prizes .
My comping resolution is to stop entering competitions just for the stuff I want, such as gadgets and Blu-Ray's. High on the agenda are holiday competitions because my parents are both recently retired and deserve a fantastic holiday of a lifetime!
