  • Patience is the key to comping

    Posted by Higson

    Saturday, May 25, 2013

    Hello fellow compers. I have been comping for 9 months but after 400+ competitions entered, all I saw was other people winning. Sometimes, some won multiple times which didn't feel fair as I was still waiting for my first.

    Still I kept trying and always believing the mantra, You have to be In it, to win it. It wasn't easy to keep going when you keep waiting for your name and you see someone called. Quite depressing especially when you really wanted the prize.

    Today my luck changed. I woke up to winning a packet of all-bran and cried out loud "woohoo!" This was soon followed by some tea samples of Tea India. This already made my day but as they say it comes in 3s.. and this evening I won a Ladies gardening essential kit from trash-media. All are small prizes but their effect was enormous. Have now so much hope and shows patience is the key to future success. Hope its not another 9 months to my next win, but even if it is, I know I can wait for it and won't give up. Good luck to everyone who are in the same boat and waiting for their first win. Keep going.

    Regards Shabs

  • A hopeful pastime!

    Over the past month I've won through social networks...and all with some element of effort.
    A Scottish Friendly Twitter comp won me a £25 Marks and Spencer Voucher for sharing a saving tip. The Pinterest comp for 2000 nectar points in association with Confused.com was for creating a board of things I'd love if I had 1 million points to spend!
    The most recent win was through Smart shoppers on Facebook after submitting a cleaning tip.
    It's been a lot of time and effort spent this month which has only given small rewards...but that's the way it goes!

  • First prize on 2nd day of prizefinder!!

    I found this wonderful website only 2 days ago and loved it straight away. The layout is great and the closing soon section is fantastic. The prize I won is lunch for 2 at a Indian restaurant in Soho.

    Couldn't be happier going there next week with my girlfriend get involved people its easier than you might think with a bit of luck!

  • Nailed this one at last!

    If there is one thing I enjoy, it is caption competitions, and I have had a reasonable amount of success over the last few years. One seemed to be eluding me though, until now. The Golfalot.com caption comp is probably a bit stiffer to get into, not least of all, because you have to get your entry accepted onto the shortlist first.
    But yes, I finally cracked it, after about 2 years trying, in the April comp. The prize is a very nice players towel, and a Ricky Fowler style cap (thankfully a bit more toned down than Ricky's usual caps).
    For all those who feel like giving up at times, this was after a dry spell of nearly 6 months without any wins...hang on in there guys, you just never know when.
    Happy comping to all.

  • We won a 5K Dream Ticket

    Posted by Higson

    Tuesday, May 21, 2013

    Earlier this year I saw a Nivea 'say hello' competition in the skill-based list. The competition was to bring people closer with Nivea by saying hello. They had booths in shopping centres and people could record a video message or picture that captured the spirit of saying hello. We recorded my daughter saying hello by throwing a message in a bottle and about a month later, we got an email to say we'd won a £5,000 dream ticket to anywhere in the world! We're over the moon! Thanks Prize Finder :-)

  • My First Win

    Posted by Higson

    Monday, May 20, 2013

    I have been entering competitions on ThePrizefinder for nearly a year. I spend a couple of hours a week entering the closing soon competitions and Facebook competitions. I was seriously thinking of giving up as I was getting really disheartened as I hadn't won anything at all when I got an email saying that I had won a Direct Line competition. I won £250 in John Lewis vouchers. It really made my day and has given me the boost I needed to carry on entering competitions. I didn't quite believe it until my prize arrived in the post. I had no problems with spending my vouchers - I bought an iPod, a kettle, a toaster, a pair of trainers and clothes. It felt like Christmas morning when all of my packages arrived! If anyone gets to the stage that I was at and is thinking of quitting hopefully my winner's story will motivate you to carry on entering competitions.

  • My First Ever Win!

    Posted by Higson

    Monday, May 20, 2013

    I’ve been comping for about a year now and sadly haven’t won a thing!! I was about to give up on the comping craze until I received an email from ASOS Fashion Finder to say I had won their 3rd place prize, a £50 ASOS voucher! I recommend Fashion Finder to any fashion fanatic out there! You can have a lot of fun creating as many stylish outfits as you like while comping at the same time. I can’t wait to receive my voucher and start building up my holiday wardrobe! This little win has boosted my moral and I am now even more determined to enter lots more competitions and hopefully win a few more prizes in the future. A little note to everyone; don’t give up and good luck with your comping!!

  • `Spa` acular Day

    Posted by Higson

    Monday, May 20, 2013

    In January I won via Facebook a whole pile of (12) for 2 people spa day vouchers and decided to use 8 of them at once. Sixteen of us went off and had the most amazing day being pampered with treatments and lazing in the hot tub. Definitely one of my favourite wins. I have also won two Coronation Festival tickets for the Gala Event on Friday 12 July which includes food and drink, won via Waitrose purchase competition listed in Compers news and on Prizefinder. A twitter win with Cultbox brought a bundle of DVDs and another £25 M&S vouchers for a food tip. On a recent London trip thanks to info from Di, my daughter and I were able to get some vouchers from Next and H&M. I have never been lucky with blog competitions but that just changed as two London Dungeon tickets have just been won via a blog. Good luck everyone and keep comping.

    I've been comping for a while without much success but then WHAM...in the past 10 days I've won 3 things! The BabyRug via a mummy blogger, A Phil and Ted's wriggle wrapper via a website and today I've won a bundle of Warburtons goodies on Twitter! Having a 5 week old means lots of sitting and feeding time so I use this time to comp too... thanks for listing them, I'd never have found them otherwise.

  • Like waiting for a bus!!!

    Posted by Higson

    Sunday, May 19, 2013

    After what seemed like a very long wait, just like buses three prizes came along at once!! And on a Friday too, a very good start to the weekend.
    Firstly I won an instant prize on the All Bran daily, then I had an email to say I'd won a bottle of Lambrini (another FB comp), then through the post I received 2 lipbalms from a Superdrup/Carmex FB comp.
    All small prizes but a very BIG boost for comping morale!
    Happy comping all.
