A little while ago I was unlucky enough to suffer a slipped disc and pretty much immobile for over 2 weeks - however my mouse hand was still fine and I put it to good use entering comps on Prizefinder. Yesterday the most enormous box arrived and it turned out to be a computerized telescope! This is something I have always wanted but could never justify the expense of at over £300. So not only am I over the moon, but I will have a pretty darn good view of it as well :-)

An out of this world prize

Multimedia Glasses
Wednesday, September 11, 2013
I've been an avid comper for over a year now and in the last 6 months I have settled comfortably into using ThePrizeFinder.com to find and enjoy the latest and greatest competitions the interweb has to offer.
I have won all sorts of weird and wonderful things, most recently these Carl Zeiss Cinevision OLED glasses which RRP at almost £600 - From 11,000 entries on very.co.uk my name was randomly chosen...
I cannot believe it... I am already looking forward to play testing these beauties out with my laptop and PS3. I will then pop a review on the company website that provided me with them to see if this is a line of tech they want to go down in the future.
I am very blessed to have been lucky that day and when it comes down to it, it's all luck... some small skill might be used, but random luck is how we all win something.
So I say this to you all, keep comping, keep copying and pasting that rafflecopter twitter link in, keep using ROBOFORM and watching those funny field entries occur.. keep following each other on Facebook to like and share the comps you might miss... keep making the world smile with your antics and above all else remember the motto...
Keep Calm

Holidays Holidays and not enough time off
Wednesday, September 11, 2013
Having got back from my luxury New York holiday and a 6 month dry spell comping I started to think about holidays for the next 12 months.
Not for long though, within the last few weeks I picked up a hot tub lodge break in Scotland, a Christmas time dinner bed and breakfast 2 night break in a manor house and a holiday to Israel.
To top it off I bagged a 40'' Smart TV too a few days ago.
The only problem I have at the moment is a lack of annual leave to take, its a shame I cant win days off work.
Over the last few years my hobby has netted me in excess of £70,000 in cash, holidays and goods and benefitted family, friends and charities too. I love it.Topiary or not topiary!

I recently entered a lovely topiary competition with Joseph Bentley's Facebook page, named Sterling Sculptures, that I found via ThePrizefinder and I won a fabulous garden tool set! I'm certainly not skilled in this craft, in fact this is the only time I've attempted it but my topiary smile came up trumps :)
Nearly Disney missed it!
Monday, September 9, 2013
I've been entering online comps for a few years and had only won one good prize. Since recently joining PrizeFinder I've won 3 prizes! just this weekend I read an email from UkMums saying I'd won a Disney Sky High Tink toy in a Rafflecopter draw. The problem was that it was a reminder email saying if I didn't reply ASAP I would forfeit the prize!
Luckily I was in time and they are still going to send it to me..phew! I don't know how missed the first email but prizes are hard to come by so I didn't want to miss it!
Thank you PrizeFinder!Charlotte's win

It's been about 6 months since I've had a win so it was great to receive an email telling me I had won a copy of the Japanese horror film Death Game on DVD. It took a little while to arrive but finally turned up after a month. It'll be perfect for the next get together with my friends - a monthly horror film and dinner night.
2nd win in a week!

Cannot believe it, Very chuffed, 2nd win in a week!
A £95 Jeetly Petite Britney Shift dress!! I have only been doing competitions for about 6 weeks but now I'm addicted! I get up an hour early before kids just to enter as many as possible. It's such a buzz when you win something! Especially when you receive a parcel and don't know what it is, like a kid at Christmas!
Love the prize finder :-)
Galaxy Samsung 2 Win
Saturday, September 7, 2013
With the six weeks holidays ending and being on holiday, I didn't get time to enter as many as I usually do, but I still had some lovely wins from doing instants and dailies. A couple of days before the kids started back at school, whilst they were eating their lunch, I decided to log on and do a couple, and then carried on cleaning and mopping up after them. Then the day they started back at school, I was so excited to start entering properly again and dreaming about BIG wins when I got a wem from Just Lodges on Facebook. When I opened it I couldn't believe what I won! A SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 2 7.0! My first thought was that it was a scam so I logged onto their Facebook page and saw they had announced me as their winner one of the competitions. I did just a couple of days before and as it's my birthday in a couple of days they sent it wrapped up with "happy birthday" written on it so now my husband has got some competing to do!
An exciting start
Friday, September 6, 2013
I joined ThePrizeFinder in the middle of August and have already experienced the highs and lows of comping!
Last week the postman turned up with a box which my husband eyed suspiciously (he thought I'd gone mad on the credit card) but it turned out to be a wonderful hamper of Palmer's Daily facial products worth £50!! No warning, just turned up out of the blue.
Then just a couple of days later I received an email telling me I was down to the the final 25 people to win one of 3 trips across America from New York to LA. The down side was, to be in with a chance of winning, they wanted to film the trip for You Tube. There was no way my husband would sign up for that so I couldn't continue with that competition. It's hard to get so close to such an incredible prize and then not make it to the end.
However I've definitely got the bug - I just need to make sure I read the small print!!!Munchy Mornings

I am pleased to say after winning nothing for nearly three months I had an email today.
Apparently it was a prize draw from July run by Dorset Cereals. The goodies are a selection of granola boxes, which I have never tried before. Therefore breakfast will be a nice time to eat something different and better than what I'm used to.
I am so happy as I only enter comps that have prizes I could do with and can share with my family. Still waiting for bigger ones (to shhh the naysayers) but I'm very grateful for the smaller ones that keep me going. I needed good news and it arrived, yay! Thank you ThePrizefinder.
