I have just been notified that I have won the fantastic prize of a two night holiday to the Euro Space Centre in Belgium for two adults and two children with Actimel/NDL! Great news you might think (and I did for a few minutes) - except for the fact that their 'conditions' state that 'children' must be over 6 and no more than 11 years old at the time of travel!!! That's a new definition of children in my book! The problem is, my step son is 12 this month and the only other child I could take is 14 in a couple of months, thereby making it impossible to get anything like the full benefit from this holiday, as it's basically designed for KIDS! I will be contacting Actimel/NDL who run the competition, but don't have great hopes of any change, as rules are generally rules. I know I should technically have read the rules before entering, but it said it was for two adults and two children - and that's exactly what we are and we should be able to take this up. If I read the conditions of all competitions before entering, I'd be able to enter around 1/10th or less, as it takes far longer to read the rules than to enter - to be honest, I just wouldn't bother entering any at all.

Beginners Luck
Thursday, March 19, 2015
I only started comping at the end of January, at the advice of my sister in law!
No big wins as of yet, but have managed to get 3 small prizes :) Some coco brown tan via a twitter comp, a pair of tickets to the ideal home show via british gas twitter comp and a Lyla loves necklace!
I was sceptical at first, but it just goes to show that you do win!!!
Definitely going to continue this new found hobby, hoping for a bigger win this month!
Better Breakfast

My second win this year and its a box of goodies from Better Breakfast. The competition was through my local newspaper but the t&c's said the box had to be collected from their office. I didn't think anything more of it until I received a letter saying that I'd won. How was I going to get to their office 9 miles away between 9-5 on a weekday?? Luck was on my side as when I called them to claim the prize, they said they would be in my area on Wednesday covering a story and could drop it off at my work. How sweet of them. Just shows if you don't ask you don't get.
A great March

After an amazing January I had a really dry February so didn't hold out for any better luck this month. However it's been pretty great. I won two prizes from Emerald street (Benefit make up and Molton Brown shower gel). I also won a Fifty shades of grey OPI nail polish set (from Marie Claire) and two tickets to see Nicky Minaj at the Echo arena (from Kiss radio). So don't worry if you have a dry spell the wins are just around the corner.

January wasn't very good for wins and feb was just abit better, march has so far been fantastic with wins like a personalised baby bundle worth £85 and a £250 sewing machine from facebook which will come in very handy but my fave this month has to be a prize I won a few months ago on facebook ... I won 2 adults merlin pass and this weekend we went to blackpool 3 hours away to get the passes sorted as alton towers was closed and had to be validated in march ... to our surprise we could use them at lots of places so we stopped the night a cheap b&b and used them for sealife centre, Madame Tussauds , the dungoens and the tower .. although some things were closed like the circus we still had a fab fun day without paying a thing it was amazing thanks to competitions that companys and prizefinder do :)
Huge Beginner's Luck!

I had always been going on sites looking for samples for products that I've wanted because I had never been good at winning anything. I stumbled upon The Prize Finder one day and I just got overly excited with all the competitions available and entered anything that I would love to win.
I came across a Global Radio quiz to win an iPad mini 3, I obviously thought I'd never win anything, nevermind an iPad. Until a letter came through the post saying I had won! I couldn't believe my luck and I was so excited.
I had been wanting one for so long until my little brother had broken my laptop and I had to spend my money on a new laptop, so I was SO glad when I won an iPad on my first time comping. :-)
Thank you The Prize Finder!

Friday, March 6, 2015
I haven't done any comping for the last 2 or 3 years and have just started back up at the end of Jan.. Feb has been a fantastic month, I have won so far:
A Dinotales colouring set
A £10 Toys R Us voucher
Big Hero 6 Game for the Ds
Family ticket to see the Octonautsand lastly the one I'm most proud of is my 4 year old son and I spent most of Pancake Day making lots of funny Pancake designs, our favourite being the sheep one which got us a runner's up prize from Vision Direct. They sent us a personalised baking stencil with Dexter's name on which he was over the moon with when it came through the post.
I always use Prizefinder as I find it so easy to use and its fantastic for tracking competitions that I have already entered. So thanks guys and good luck everyone :)
