    At the end of last year, I felt like the unluckiest person alive! My declining health meant I could no longer pursue my career, and I became unable to do the hobbies I once loved. Desperate to find new ways to spend my time - I discovered comping!

    I began in January, but it wasn't until last month that I had the thrill of my first big win! It was an amazing £250 Amazon voucher from Service4Service and I was absolutely over the moon!!

    Then, the strangest thing happened! Whilst still revelling in the excitement of my first win, my inbox 'dinged' again, and I'd won again! I could not believe my luck! This time I'd won a fantastic £200 One4All voucher from Ken Rand Furniture!

    I was so incredibly grateful and could not believe that I had won twice, all within the space of an hour! I had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming! Then, the very next morning, as I was sitting having breakfast and checking my emails, I suddenly saw the most mind-blowing thing! I began blinking frantically at the screen, hardly daring to breathe and before I knew it, my face was tingling and I was starting to black out! My mum ran over to help me, but when she saw what was on the screen, she almost fainted too!

    I had won a California Wine Tour Holiday with Lands’ End and Trafalgar, worth £5000!!!

    It was a dream come true!

    Out of all the competitions I'd entered, this one was the one I'd wanted to win more than anything - and I'd done it!! I'd always promised I'd take my Mum there one day, but I'd almost given up hope that it would be possible!

    Now I believe that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!!!! :D

    I started comping back in November 2011 - I was off ill from work and bored when I found this fantastic site, of which I use practically every day now! I decided to keep track of my wins and have calculated that I have won over £3,500 worth of stuff in this time!!! Some large wins like £1000 worth of shutter, an iPad 2, a huge coffee maker and lots of other smaller wins. I love ThePrizefinder and will continue to use it for a lot longer. Still waiting to win a holiday though.

  • £100 voucher, 3 wins in one day

    I joined Theprizefinder a few months ago and had little luck. I had given up for all of 2 months and came back. The very same day I entered about 10 competitions and won three!

    First I won a competition on Facebook to receive a £50 set of champagne glasses. Then I entered a competition on Companzee to win £100 to spend at awcycles.co.uk. I entered the competition with 12 minutes left to do so, within 15 minutes I had an email saying I'd won! This in the same day I won a PS3 game for download.

    I have attached a picture of what I bought with the £100 voucher, a pair of Oakley Frogskin Limited Edition glasses worth exactly £100. I am yet to receive the champagne glasses but the PS3 game was instant.

    All thanks to prizefinder!

    Thanks guys!

    A few months ago I went online to look for a competition which was being advertised in a local shop but I was unable to find what I was looking for. By chance I stumbled across the PrizeFinder website. I’ve always enjoyed entering competitions and have won a couple of things in the past but probably never entered more than a handful of comps in a year.
    After spending a few nights on the site entering stacks of comps it didn’t take long to figure out how incredibly useful the comp tracker was and so I signed up.
    About a month after starting to use the Prizefinder site I received a phone call from Princess Cruises and they told me I’d won a competition to have a meal and a preview of their latest cruises ship the “Royal Princess” in June as part of the ships inauguration, I just couldn’t wipe the smile off my face!
    A few weeks later I had an email saying I’d won a Voyager Legend Bluetooth headset which arrived in the post the following weekend.
    Soon I was telling friends about my wins and my sister in-law asked me which site I was using, before long she had signed up to your site. This week she text me to say that she had had her first win of tickets to see Cliff Richard in concert!
    I’m really enjoying using your site and now I’m just waiting for my next win!
    Thank you PrizeFinder!

  • Patience is the key to comping

    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

    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!

    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

    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

    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.
