I started entering competitions about 3 months ago when I was bored one day after another long day at work. I was hoping at first to win a holiday within the first couple of days, as it will probably be a couple of years before we can afford to go anywhere, but soon realised that it would be hoping for a bit much and soon decided that as well as setting my sights on the bigger prizes, it would be sensible to aim for the smaller prizes as well.
This proved fruitful earlier this week when an unexpected parcel was delivered to our door. Having had no phone call or email to tell me about the prize, I was a little bit shocked and also overjoyed to find inside the box was a sample of Oust tap and showerhead descaler along with £250 of Tesco vouchers as winnings from a competition I entered a while ago but had forgotten about.
Needless to say that I am still entering voucher comps and looking forward to my next win and still hoping for the grand prize of a wonderful holiday, but at least most of our shopping for the next month has been paid for already!
