Meet Our Latest Winners!

I never thought of entering competitions until watching Extreme Sweepstakers, I was always under the impression they were a fix and no one actually won. After watching the show I searched online and found the Prizefinder site and started entering competitions. My family thought I was going loopy spending ages going through all the competitions and clicking away, that is until I received an email from Mums.net to say I had won a Despicable Me goodie bag, it arrived yesterday and I was so excited I ripped the box open straight away. My daughter Hollie is also hooked now and is awaiting the arrival of her first win which should be coming soon.

After not winning much this year, I was giving up. But a winning e-mail said I'd won a washing machine, the biggest win I've ever had and I was delighted. The prize was sent to me and got it within two days! The moral to this story is don't give up comping!!

I have been completing competitions through the Prizefinder for many years and had won the odd small item. However, there has been a lull in my winning anything for more than 5 years, but today, I have had my first win after those fruitless five years. I have received a National Express Senior Coachcard, valid for one year, which gives me 1/3 of the normal fare on their coach journeys.

I am really ecstatic about this win, firstly, because it has taken over 5 years to win anything and secondly, I use National Express coaches quite a lot, so this will save me some money and get me to visit places I wouldn't normally go.

Thank you Prizefinder for all your hard work in getting all the competitions you do - someone has to win and if you don't win at first, just keep trying.

I started entering comps after watching Extreme Sweepstakes on TLC. My first win was within 5 days!! I've got £16 of Genius gluten free vouchers on there way and I cant wait to treat myself to a seeded loaf! I know that sounds odd but being Coeliac, food is expensive!

I have been entering competitions for a while on ThePrizeFinder but had no luck. I then received an email from MTV telling me I had won the superman competition! I won two t-shirts, a hat, USB stick, keyring and a badge! I was very pleased as I am a superman fan! I also won a watch along with this but that will be sent out later.

I have been doing comps for 3 weeks now and have already had some small wins, a Higgidy picnic, a facial scrub and two baby cups, all thanks to Theprizefinder and all the work you put in for us compers.
I know they are only small wins but a win is a win and they all made me smile. Hoping for a big win but I will be happy with more small ones. It is so exciting!!

I was absolutely delighted to receive an email telling me that I'd won these speakers (worth around £1200!!) through the Mac Format magazine! They are extremely stylish and sound quality is totally amazing. Thank you to Neil who traveled to Sheffield to present the speakers to me (he also made sure they arrived safely at my home later on that day!) and a big thank you to John for helping to make the day brilliant for me and my family.

Yes, I won a beach ball and a very bright orange T-shirt. My 84 year old dad modelled them for me. I sent a photo into another comp and won another prize. I was well pleased. My dad was amused too. The beach ball has had a lot of use but no one's been brave enough to wear the luminous orange T-shirt out. If you wore it you wouldn't get lost ha ha....

After a really buzzing March when a small shower of useful and decorative items arrived unexpectedly, April, May and June were fairly quiet with just a few DVDs and cosmetics, mainly items from daily giveaways, to make things interesting. Then on July 1st I received an email to say I had won an ASUS Fonepad in a Stylist competition. They just needed my address to send it and amazingly it turned up the next day. As one more used to a chunky desktop computer and basic PAYG phone there is a steep learning curve ahead but there were plenty of offers of help from family members. Needless to say much time was spent during the recent long hot days getting to grips with all it could offer.
Then, on the hottest day of the year so far, I received another prize – a pair of Heat Holders socks. Not sure which competition this was as there was absolutely nothing else in the parcel to help identify this. (Has anyone else noticed how common this has become? There always used to be a LWE (long white envelope) or email to warn you of the impending arrival of a prize or at the very least a compliments slip in the package.) Anyway, I’m sure I’ll appreciate them once the temperature drops!

So earlier this month I got home from work to find a box had been delivered to my house. I had no email's saying that I had won a competition so I was quite excited!

I opened the box to find a brand new Xbox console and Walking Dead game to go with it! I still didn't know where I had won it from as there was nothing in the box to say!

The label with my name on said the name of a consultancy company and after emailing them they told me that I had won a Facebook competition from a magazine and apologies for not telling me before hand. I told them thank you and was fine as it was a nice surprise
