Meet Our Latest Winners!

I have had a very slim February with not a lot of prizes, so decided that I would try and win flowers for Valentines day, so I entered everything. Happily on 13th I received a tweet to let me know I had won an Interflora competition for a dozen long stemmed red roses. I was over the moon, and to top it off the delivery car was a Rolls Royce. I just wish I'd been quick enough to get my camera out, but the flowers were lovely and are still in their prime now. Well chuffed.

I've been really lucky this month. I first won £250 worth of clothes from Lili-London courtesy of Look Magazine. When I checked out their clothing I realised that being over 40 and size 14 I wasn't really going to get much that would look good on me. I decided to treat 7 lovely young ladies in my life. My three nieces, niece in law and three of my closest friends daughters. They were able to choose an outfit each and were thrilled.

The next week I got an email saying I had won a Weber gas fired BBQ. My husband thought that was brilliant and immediately built it up when it arrived.

Then yesterday I won a set of Tomy Winnie the Pooh baby toys. These are will be nice for my cousin who is expecting her first baby.

All in all a really lucky month.

I've recently started comping again after spending hours last year and having no wins. This month I started doing the closing soon comps for Twitter and Facebook, next thing I know I've won a mug and a cute little kitten teddy and then a few days after I won the red bag which is perfect for when I start work! I never thought it would happen too me because I'm so unlucky! But I really enjoying comping and if you feel like it will never happen to you, it will when you least expect it and it will be the best feeling in the whole world.

It had been a long time coming but I felt that a win was just around the corner. Try as I may I have entered comp after comp with no wins recently but I felt that February was going to be a winning one. I entered a recent one to win tickets to Cardiff City v Aston Villa, probably with the same thought as always. It won't be me. Imagine my surprise when only two days later I had a call to let me know that I had won. I could barely contain my surprise. What made my day was telling my 7 year old son that he could have a special school night treat on the day, stay up late and come with me to his first ever football match. He ran around the room, whopping and shrieking. The look on his face throughout the evening was priceless. A great win but an even better memory.

In January I won a prize worth £150!

2 tickets to the Harry Potter Studios tour, a replica harry potter wand and a full set of the DVDs.
This is my dream prize as I LOVE the Harry Potter films/books. I cant wait to go on the tour!!!

Fingers crossed people, you never know what's around the corner!

I entered a Best Loved Hotels competition to win a stay at Rothay Manor in the Lake District. Once you fill in the competition form (which is only a few lines) you are taken to the site of the venue. When I saw it I really wanted to win as it looked perfect especially as I am a keen amateur photographer. Whether I won or not I thought I would keep Rothay Manor in mind for a trip later in the year. Anyway, I got an email telling me I had won the competition! I couldn't believe my luck. The email told me to contact the hotel to arrange my stay and I did wonder if it was real but the lady I spoke to seemed to be expecting my call. I have booked to go there in July and I cannot wait! They have booked a superior room for me and my guest with breakfast and an evening meal on the first night.
This is definitely the best prize I have won to date and I have won a few over the last 14 months, and I would not have won it if it wasn't for ThePrizeFinder, so thank you guys.

After having a really slow year last year I broke my comping lean spell in January by winning a Happy egg calender and a few days later I received a winning e-mail to say I had won £100 to spend in Charlotte's Bistro in London. It couldn't have come at a better time as I had just booked my tickets to go and stay with my daughter Sophie who lives in London as a birthday treat from my family, so we booked a table whilst we were there and had a wonderful evening. The food ,drinks and service was really good and they really looked after us and congratulated us on winning the prize. I am hoping this is the start of many more wins, I just love my hobby so much. :)

Whilst looking for a new hobby, I discovered the world of competitions. After entering about 200-300 competitions regularly for about 2 weeks I had won nothing. I tried to not give up by regularly reading the 'Winners' blog on this website, and felt slightly hopeful and envious of all these lucky compers.

After growing tired of the constant form filling and not hearing anything, I decided to enter a few Twitter competitions and became addicted instantly. You could see exactly what prize you were winning, easy contact with the competition owners and see how many people you're up against.

Finally I decided to open a separate Twitter account purely for comping, because it was spamming my personal page. I joined on Saturday and by Tuesday I had a 'mention' and had won 'Studio Dre Beats' which are worth around £200. The best part was I got to pick what colour I wanted.

Best advice (I'm a newbie also) is to find a competition style you like best, Facebook, Twitter, skilled, forms. Your day will come. I'm the most unluckiest person, I've never won a thing in my life, but keep trying, it'll get easier and enjoyable when you make 'comper' friends to share your recent winnings with. :-)

Well it's been a very slow month but I have won coffee twice, an iPhone cover and VIP passes to a secret gig with Nina Nesbit.

My daughter and I had a lovely time. Also, one of those Corsa Antennas turned up as well as my watch and pillows from wins last month. This is a pic of my daughter and I with our VIP passes.

I haven't had much luck with winning and with work and family I had less and less time to enter competitions. So I started entering on Twitter since it was quick easy and I could do it on the move.
I didn't think many people really won on twitter but in this last week I have been super lucky having won a carved wooden sign, £70 worth of skin care products, £50 vouchers for wagamama, a burts bees gift set and 4 cinema tickets!
Feeling very happy and I didn't need to spend hours filling out forms!
