How's March started for you? Hopefully you're finding our new server a bit quicker and more reliable, and racing through the comps even faster than usual. This month we've got Mothers Day and Easter competitions, lots of these will be creative so hopefully you can rope the kids in to help you with crafts and egg decorating!
On last month's February Wins post we had some big wins from the radio websites we list on The PrizeFinder. Dnevers had an amazing win from Capital FM - a 51 inch TV, trip to Barcelona, iPad Mini AND A Galaxy phone! Am167krp won a £900 spa break with Heart FM, and NIGHTSKY won £1000 to spend on art with Smooth FM! Lucky kimsly won a £500 snowboard, debbieo won £500 to spend at Harvey Nicks (very jealous of this one!) and on our Facebook page you also told us about lots of wins in the Sweet'n'Low and Clover Instant Win competitions, as well as on the Winneroo site!
Good luck for March everyone - feel free to tell us about your prizes (big or small!) as a comment on this post, and don't forget you can win a £50 voucher if you upload a photo on our Winners Story page too.

That's all you have to do frilly, although some people like to copy and paste the tweet and add 'RT' to the start - it depends how the promoter chooses their winner though! We'll be producing a PDF guide to Twitter soon, which should help!

Corn, the best bet is to avoid the comps and draws that have a lot of tick boxes (survey sites) unless you have time to do them. Stick to competitions on magazine websites, Facebook pages, etc. where usually there's only one box to tick!

Like you I feel the same, although I have had 3 small wins, one from facebook. I tend to tick a majority of boxes just in case!!! Not sure about Twitter though! When it says follow and RT, is that it? Cos all I do is click on the follow button and then the retweet button....?!
