Meet Our Latest Winners!

WOW, I had an amazing time comping in 2013 and the advents have been fantastic. I started putting in more hours comping in Sept 2013 and since then have won more than 2K in wins!!
I've always wanted a 40" TV but no way I could ever afford one, but in December I won an iPad Air which I sold on to a friend who had always wanted one but also could not afford the £500 to buy one. So I sold it to them for a reasonable amount, I got my 40" TV and they got the iPad they'd always wanted. I also won a Nikon camera and lens kit. I am into photography so this win really has given me what I need to start 2014 with a new hobby.

My goal for 2014 is to win an Xbox one, and any wedding items I can win as I've been engaged for 3 years and can't afford to get married. Comping I have learnt can make your dreams come true!

I have had a great year winning lots of lovely things, from a mushroom grater to a luxury spa day and lots of lovely things in between.

We have had lots of family days out, meals out, theatre trips and short breaks that we would not have been able to afford otherwise.

Christmas was made easier as I was lucky to win a Collection Cosmetics box, full of make-up and skincare, ideal for my daughter.

My most recent win has been a lovely wicker basket containing 4 handcrafted wine glasses which I won from Kettle Chips.

Here's to another great winning year!

Well December brought me my most wins yet starting off small and getting better as the month went on, here are a list of my prizes

1. Mini bottle of shampoo
2. Raisens in a draw string raisen bag
3. Snow man and the snow dog DVD
4. Basket ball bath toy (advent com )
5. Statement necklace from next
6. £200 vouchers, £50 for Aldi, M&S, Go Outdoors and Pure Gym

So a great month, and a great incentive to carry on comping in the
New Year. Good luck for 2014 everyone. x x

Months ago our young son entered a Disney competition by designing an Easter Card. He was lucky enough to win a family ticket to Disney on Ice! Then he had to wait several months till we could go to the O2 Arena for Disney on Ice (all the waiting was rather difficult for a 5 year old).

But it was well worth the wait....we'd done some internet research re: parking and souvenirs. And with free parking, some Mickey/Minnie mouse ears from the internet, and some snacks from the local supermarket, we had the most amazing day. We simply couldn't afford the prices of parking and £8/9 for popcorn/candy floss.

The Show was amazing and the whole family enjoyed it. It was our young son's first show...so Thank You to Disney on Ice, and my teenage daughter is never to old for a Disney show. With Snow White and the Dwarfs, Seeing Mickey and Minnie, Cinderella and the ugly stepsisters, and Rapunzel dancing with Prince Charming being some of our favourite moments.

I posted that I had a bit of beginners luck a few weeks ago and my luck has kept on going :)

Since then I've won;

Portable North Pole Package
Pack Of Peanuts
2 x Championship Boxing Tickets
2 For 1 Sea life Centre Voucher
Elasticiser by Phillip Kingsley
Full Lulu Kennedy Hair Meets Wardrobe Collection (pictured)
Breathless on DVD

The DVD just turned up in the post it was a lovely surprise! :)

I've spread my good luck it seems to some friends who are currently serving in Afghanistan who have taken up comping when they have some free time and one has just won an iPad :D

Thanks Prizefinder!!

I've had an excellent month of wins, but am possibly the only member to have been entirely unlucky in the advent comps!

This month I've been lucky enough to receive a beautiful bunch of flowers, some sheepskin slippers (which I now seem to be surgically attached to), a Ted Baker iPad case, some luxury olive oil, a £50 John Lewis voucher and an £80 hamper of Divine chocolate.

I've also had some smaller goodies including a sea monkeys gift set, some beauty products and a breastfeeding set.

My family know me well and on Christmas day when they asked how many of the presents I'd actually paid for, I replied very proudly 'only one!'. I love being able to treat my family to gifts I know they will love and that would normally be way out of my price range. Plus a chocolate hamper to share just tops it!

I always look forward to Advents as they are usually fun and full of stocking fillers. Soon into the Advents I won a Heinz tea towel in a metal Ketchup Tin.

Thinking this was a good start to the advents I went on and entered all I could including a photo competition for American Express.

No wins for many days then out of the blue. "Congratulations!

A GRAND ADVENT..

2013 hasn't been a winning year for me. Mostly because I've had a lot less time on my hands with the arrival of our first baby. From the start of December I started to get back into comping and have had some nice little wins to show for it. I won two hand creams from a Palmers photo comp on Facebook. I love their stuff and the little handcream is the perfect size for your handbag. I won a knitted hand warmer from trade radiators by finding a hidden image on their website. I won a selection of goodies from the Telegraph Stella giveaway including root lift spray, two hand creams, Topshop highlighter and bath oil. My favourite win of all was an Asda instagram comp. You had to enter a pic of a product from their bakery. I entered a pic of my daughter with their yummy star waffles and scooped £100 in Asda vouchers. A nice win for the end of the year.

I've been comping on and off for years but since April I've been on a mission. I had some lovely wins including lots of event tickets (attending the Premiere of Red 2 was a highlight - see pic) but the big wins eluded me till this month. It began on the 3rd with £1250 worth of kitchen Aid goodies followed by a spa weekend, £100 internet voucher for a homeware site and some smaller gifts. To top it all on the 19th I received an email to say i had won my wedding worth £5000! I am overjoyed and without a doubt this is the best hobby ever! I can't wait to plan my wedding and my aim for 2014 is to win my honeymoon. My advice to anyone feeling blue is stick with it and enter as many comps as you can, I never thought I could win something this big but it does happen! Good luck everyone for the next year. xxx

Well, Christmas time and the age-old question, what to get my husband for Christmas. Well thanks to ThePrizefinder, a fully loaded Worx QBit arrived, courtesy of Argos. Present sorted and hubby surprised and delighted. What to get an older granddaughter? - a set of three classic books - excellent. What to get for stocking fillers for grandchildren who like making things? - a set of 6 mouseloft Christmas cross-stitch kits. Excellent. Everyone happy! Thank you Prizefinder. Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and wishing you a Happy and Healthy New Year, and lots of luck for 2014! Fingers crossed for a win with the Advent calendars.
