It has been a while since I entered competitions. I remember when I was at university, I saw a youtube video on people in America called 'sweepers' who would enter hundred of competitions a day and then win lots of prizes. I thought it would be too good to be true, but decided to check if the UK had anything similar.
It was around December 2012 when I first really got into it, the 'advents' as they are better known by and Marks and Spencer were doing a 'pass the parcel' game. I did't have many comping friends and just sent a few to my university friends, not expecting any return! It must have been a coupel of days late when I opened a parcel and a huge CONGRATULATIONS flashed up and it said I'd won a BLU-RAY player! I couldn't believe it.
I was still very skeptical until it arrived the day I was leaving to go home for the Christmas period! That's where it all began.
Over the years I have dabbled with comping on/off and this is the first time I really want to dedicate time spent on it, entering more creative and purchase neccesary competitions. I have had some incredible wins over the years Ive done it.
£500 for 2 pairs of jeans at Harrods
Blu-ray player
xbox 360
£500 of extractor fans for the home
A years supply of tea
Instax Camera
A Bettys hamper
So here we go, my first post, the first time I now want to keep this up for the whole year.
Watch this space!
