Meet Our Latest Winners!

You can imagine my surprise when I heard that I'd won a year's supply of cider! It was a bit of a shock when 375 bottles showed up on my door step! The lorry couldn't get to my house so they left the pallet in the middle of the road, 25 crates of the stuff. Yum!

This month I won a prize high on the wish list. I am moving house in the coming year so therefore I am focussing heavily on homewear and appliances. I hunt these competitions out specifically and it's worked really well this month. I haven't won just little things this month but fewer really amazing big things.
From my wish list I've won -
A kettle
An American fridge freezer
A washing machine
Love to shop vouchers
GHD's

I've also won some cinema vouchers, which is great but getting to the cinema with a new baby is going to have to wait!!
I love the approach of enter what you need, so fulfilling to win and leaves spare time to enjoy the summer.

Thanks to TPF

Because of other things I had to do, I haven't done much comping for quite a while.

I started again just over a week ago, and obviously came back to ThePrizefinder. One of the first ones I entered was a simple retweet on the Argos Twitter page to win a Fisher Price Laugh and Learn House. I was thrilled to have a DM telling me I'd won.

There wasn't a picture of the prize so I was expecting a small parcel, with a little kiddies toy. I was quite surprised when the postie delivered a large box as high as my waist! It turns out to be a kiddies toy that is a bit bigger than I thought and sells at £59.99!

So even the prizes you know you've won can surprise you!

Here's hoping this is the sign of good prizes to come :-)

I have had a few dryish months with not many wins but this month its picked up again.

It started off with an Amazon voucher win, which a few days later won from the same company again!

Then some Leisure vouchers from a Facebook comp. We have had 2 family meals out on those!!

Several daily spin to wins which I always love - even if they are very small wins - a win is a win.

But my fave has to be my @davelackie win on Twitter which I have pictured - some gorgeous Calvin Klein sunglasses and Calvin Klein perfume which is absolutely gorgeous!

I do a combination of ThePrizeFinder, Twitter, Facebook, Loquax and email comps and also anything I buy that has a competition on I enter - of course I dont buy anything just because it has a comp on it - nooooooooo lol lol

I had a good start to August, on the 1st I had a WEM from The Perfume Shop saying I had won a 50ml bottle of Givenchy Dahlia Divin worth £63.50 and then a week later I was mentioned in a FB comment by Brother UK informing me I was the winner of their comp, I won a Label printer and a £50 notonthehighstreet.com voucher, and then last Friday I had an email saying I've won a can of Silvikrin Mousse. All my wins have been on a Friday this month! lol. I hope next month brings some great wins too. :)

I've always been one of those people, who thought, "No one ever wins those competitions" and if they did win then those people were paid by the company to pretend that they did win! Still I made it my New Years Resolution that I would enter as many competitions as possible just to see if I could win anything.....I cant say that I've done very well lol, but I have however won me a wooden spoon hahaha. It's very typical of me to win something like this but you know what, it comes in good use! I'm addicted to comping in the hopes that maybe I might win one day! As everyone says "You gotta be in it to win it!"

I've had a really dry spell of wins on Facebook and Twitter recently. No matter how many comps I entered I just couldn't win until I won £20 of Poundland vouchers on Twitter. I was really pleased especially as within 30 seconds a notification came up from Facebook - I'd won a 4 pack of The new Tennants lemon lager as well. The same day I got an email telling me I'd won £20 of Amazon vouchers from Asda. I also got my first Instagram win 3 lovely pairs of Heat Holders socks. I'm grateful for every prize, love comping!

I have found The Prizefinder great and really useful as although I enter the Closing soon ones the day before, I always check on the day as well to get the new ones added that day. Most of my prizes these days come from Facebook thanks to The Prizefinder. My August wins are:
Jasper Conran Large brown leather holdall worth £155- FB
Ray Ban Aviator glasses- J20 FB
Castello cheese and a book- FB
Hooch moustache keyring- FB
Belgian waffle maker- FB
Signed copy of 'Dr. BBQ's Big-Time Barbecue CookBook' -FB
Beurer Handbag Set includes the BS05 Lighted Pocket Mirror, the HL05 Illuminated Tweezers, and the MP05 Manicure Pen worth £30 - blog
Pantene Age defy shampoo and conditioner- online

The Jasper Conran bag was won from The Peacock Centre, Woking Facebook page who were giving a prize a week away to each winner worth up to £200. You had to visit the shopping centre and take a photo of what you wanted to win and then post it on their page.

I won this HUGE hamper from Yorkshire.com that came from Bettys Tea Rooms!

IT was filled with cakes, biscuits and jams and tea bags etc!!

The value of the prize is £100!!

We are having so much fun going through all the treats and seeing what they taste like!!

Next on my prize wish list is a trip to the ACTUAL Tea rooms in york!!

Love my hobby soooo much!!!

I was away for most of the month during August, so only have 3 wins. My restaurant vouchers arrived from July so I've included a photo of them. I'm saving them for when I have my university friends to stay in a few weeks time.

My August wins included a £50 Joss and Main voucher which I've spent on a luxury bath mat for my new bathroom I bought from the vouchers in the Direct Blinds competition. Then I won some organic drinks from BerryWhite and a gift box of baby goodies from Shoreline of Cowes.

Just goes to show, when your entry numbers drop, the prize numbers do too! I'm still really pleased with these and can't wait for my bathroom to be finished and will be so proud to know I couldn't have done it without my wins. :)
