Share Your December Wins

Submitted by tpf_kirsty on Tue, 2015-12-01 07:03

Hello everyone!  How is your week going, any nice wins to report?  A few bits for me since I last wrote of a beautiful bracelet from the WAMO app and Laurel & Hardy DVD from a Twitter comp. Can you believe the Advents have started today, right now, as we speak!  Have you taken a look at the Advents page yet, or are you building up to it?  We already have tons of great comps for you to try your hand at, but make sure you keep popping back as new comps will be added all the time!

I must admit November has been a very slow, unproductive month, mainly owing to the fact that I seemed to have spent most of my free time during the month preparing for Christmas, and not comping as I would normally.  I managed to win only six prizes during November, but I really mustn’t grumble.  Let’s take a look at what I did manage to win:

  • Bear Nibbles hamper, from their Facebook instant win
  •  
  • A personalised height chart, from the Kinder daily comp
  •  
  • A Uterque bracelet, from the WAMO app
  •  
  • A Laurel & Hardy DVD box set, from Showcase Cinemas on Twitter
  •  
  • A Halloween fright pack, from a text entry competition
  •  
  • A mystery prize, from the Win with Snoopy instant win 

I was really pleased to win the height chart for my youngest daughter this month, having already won her sister one a few months back - this means they both have one to open at Christmas!  The Bear Nibbles were a lovely win too, as the tasty healthy sweets have made great after school and lunchbox snacks for my girls! 

Enough about me and my wins, let’s have a look at what some of our lovely members have been winning over the last month:

Caspertheghost started the month off well by winning £100 from Actimel via their Twitter comp, just by spotting a special golden bus on a London shopping trip, and Joan had a productive month bagging herself a Snufflebabe set form Mother & Baby and a DVD box set from Zoo magazine.  Prodigal had a 12 month break from comping but is now back with a vengeance winning such lovely prizes as a £10 Costa Coffee card, a Milkshake DVD, a bundle of Zoflora goodies, a height chart, a DVD box set and some children’s books!  VillageFox had a lovely month full of wins including two Star Wars t-shirts, a Tesco voucher, children’s books, a Logo Lite game and a Little Dish bundle, and Babz229 enjoyed a great month too winning herself a washing machine, a short stay in London, a short stay in Edinburgh and lots of other goodies!  Sloopy123 had a good November winning a book from Mumsnet and a VW Campervan bag for their campervan-mad daughter, and laura44v continued her winning successes by managing to win tickets to the panto.  If there is someone who never disappoints with her “share your wins” blog comments it is xxme2uxx!  This month is no exception as the lucky thing has managed to win all manner of goodies including a fantastic £500 Amazon voucher from the J2O Blippar comp, a Frozen snuggle blanket, a pom pom goody bag, several DVDs, a Hotel Chocolat couple’s advent calendar, a Yankee Candle hamper, a height chart and several books too – an impressive haul as usual, well done!

I think my favourite prose won by a member this month has to be the fabulous festive treat won by Kslade.  She was lucky enough to win the Magi FM competition to attend the Magic of Christmas show in London, hosted by Ronan Keating.  This lovely pre-Christmas prize included travel to London, transfers and hotel accommodation – which even got upgraded as she was only taking one child and not two as she was entitled to!  Really lovely when a promoter increases the value of a prize making it even more enjoyable – looking forward to seeing the photos! 

Let us all know how you get on with December’s comps by commenting below with your wins.  Don’t forget to upload a photo of your wins too for a chance to win a £50 voucher here. 

I look forward to hopefully being able to share more of my own wins next month, and to reading all about yours! 

Happy comping everyone, and lots of Lucky dust to you all!

Kirsty x

Ended November with some lovely personalised gifts from 'I Just Love It! ' hosted on the watchingyougrow blog site and a pen from Wychwood on the 'wheel of Misfortune' ( I'm just glad I beat that Goblin for once !) Today a phone call from Absolute Radio, with tickets for ' Exhibitionism' at the Saatchi Gallery next year, but will have to count that for last month too! If December is anywhere near as good, I'll be very happy indeed!

WEM saying I've won a Posture Corrector with a code for Amazon, it looked a bit dodgy like they might have sent it out to everyone who entered... but I tried it and the code did work!

Am now running on one win per day for December!

I won a Posture Corrector too! I had just finished opening my Emails and had a WEM telling me I had won a Chiropractic treatment and massage worth £ 106 with Life Chiropractic and as I was looking it up on Google ( as you do! ) the Posture corrector WEM dropped into my inbox! Bit of a 'twilight Zone' moment really, especially as I had a feeling I'd win the PC thingy as I entered the comp.
Also a National Gallery Calendar from Danilo which arrived within 24 hours.

Yesterday I won 2 packs of camera film on the daily advent with Fuji on Twitter. I won one of those cameras with Nisa in October, so it's perfect. And today (on my birthday by the way!) I've won a 4G EE action cam worth £250 with Wave 105 on Twitter. December is awesome!

Not a bad first half to December, a personalised Toad diary from a blog ( My first Gleam Win ), A Fleur Jolly Ginger, from Bisquiteers ( Another great triumph! ) , a 'Sexy' gift from the Passionata instant, which is a candle and nail file? ( somebody please explain! ) a gym towel from Ragdale hall and a phone call last night about winning a £219 'promotional' holiday, which I am strangely underwhelmed by.
