So, we're a quarter of the way through 2012 already - have you been as successful with the comping as you'd hoped when you made your New Year's resolutions? Some of the prizes you've won have been fabulous! On our March wins post, you reported over £17,000 of prizes, including a couple of unusual ones for SavingJane (a trip to Paris with a private fragrance consultation at Guerlain!) and smartykay (a pair of pants signed by David Beckham!)
I was jealous of Budster's £6000 family holiday to Jordan though - I've always fancied walking in Indiana Jones' footsteps… maybe one day!
I was lucky enough to win one of the prizes on my wish list last week - dinner at the best restaurant in the world (Noma in Copenhagen)! It's when you win a prize like that, you really appreciate what a magical hobby comping is. For those of you yet to win a 'biggie' - don't give up yet, you really never know what's round the corner!
Good luck for April everyone - and don't forget to upload your photos and stories
My wins this month:
Maybelline mascara & eyeliner - Facebook video comp
£20 Nottingham Contemporary voucher - local magazine comp
3D TV - Pirates! Facebook video comp
£200 High Street Vouchers - Maybelline video comp
Blackberry Bold - ING Direct prize draw
Total = £1332
