    I don't enter competitions unless I want the prize, something like the comp above wouldn't appeal to me at all so wouldn't bother entering. Does everyone on here just enter every comp in the hope of a win, or would you be more selective?

    I've often wondered the same sasser.
    I don't enter them all either, even if its a night away- somewhere thats 4 hrs for me to get to is just not worth winning imo.
    I did win a Tom Jones CD- I NEVER entered that, reckoned it must have been a booby prize:D

    You must have entered one of those scam comps, like the Argos or Amazon ones on FB. If it looks like this dont enter it. Also check the URL to see if its legitimate.

    Maybe she will sell it. I have seen other boards members selling prizes on Seal the Deal.ie etc, so I suppose thats an option!

    Thanks for the TVNow magazine comps. Have missed them over the last months. Always entered but never won,but heres hoping.

    It's amazing how often the same few names keep winning prizes on facebook, i've just been comping regularly since christmas and i swear one woman has won 50% of the comps :eek: ... others are very regular winners too and they all seem to know each other. It's odd! Do they spend all day glued to facebook?

    Ireland is so small so the same names keep coming up?

    I've noticed this so many times and now that I run giveaways and competitions the exact same names enter every time, usually all on the same day.

    I think the fact that these few people have several facebook profiles using different versions of their own name and a different sob story to fit each competition is very unfair to genuine entrants too.

    Oh really? That sucks, i know some people genuinely just enter a lot of competitions and are not cheating, but to hear some are entering several times under different names is very unfair. I don't begrudge anybody but it's when i see some of them win everything i wonder what is going on! I did notice one woman was entering lots of kid related comps, and she keeps saying her grandchild is due in a couple of weeks, it must be the longest pregnancy in history :D

    I think some of these people that we see winning all the time, or "Liking, loving, sharing again" (lol) have friended each other on fb.
    I see when one wins, another will be in immediately with a "congrats"
    I would have thought they were genuine though.
