Competitions


Back in april i went on a mad competition entering spree for 2 weeks after reading on other forums about other peoples luck etc .

anyway call me impatient or whatever but after 2 weeks i hadnt won anything so couldnt be arsed to enter any more .

Cut to October - get an email telling me i have won 2 4 day passes to the world rally in wales .. didnt remember entering , sent email to try and work out if it was genuine or not .. anyway turns out it was and the tickets arrived .

So anyway that gave me the bug to enter more so since october i have become a "comper " its like a whole new secret world i never knew about lol (bit like freebies )

since the start of october i have won - 2 tickets for Villa vs Stoke , 2 tickets for Villa vs West Ham , a set of magnets , some innocent smoothies (vouchers) and some jewellery worth around £100.

nothing too valuable but its nice to win .

So has anyone else won anything lately or ever ....

Congrats

My mom won around £1500 from Lotto on the day Derren Brown was guessing the numbers

Nothing from competitions though.

My Uncle entered a few comps a night and in a few weeks won a £150 tv controller and £200 speakers. I tried it for about 2 weeks, got nothing and got discouraged I should try it again. Loquax is good, i generally enter comps that end that day or the day after.

I know it sounds daft but I miss those days, in some ways. Verification night used to be fun/nervous as many members waited to learn their fate.

Oh, I won a tenner on the lottery last saturday. Spur of the moment, entered online

A few years ago I went a bit mad like that and won £54, a skateboard, an Ally McBeal box set and a framed tail fin from a Honda F1 car signed by Jazcques Villeneuve.

I also recently (ish) won a tickle me Elmo and £75 of male grooming products.

I've won some iPhone accessories from one of Mr. Furbs competitions before.

I'm guessing a site like Loquax - The UK Competitions Portal - Competitions, Offers, Forums, Bingo

That is epic if it is true. What is the website that you may get it from?

It will be true.

I don't think Trev will mind me saying this, but he won a use of a Audi R8 for the weekend as a comp prize in something similar to what you did (I saw the newsletter to!)
