Re: Competitive streak

Yes I've won quite a few things. I don't go in for the ones with big prizes like cars or houses, but I've won some soft toys, radox goodies, a load of vileda cleaning stuff (must get off the computer and some cleaning one day) some gardening equipment, and just recently a yoghurt maker and a pretty necklace.

Re: Competitive streak

Well done on your wins, ladies!

So where do you find all these competitions..... are they in magazines, newspapers or on the internet?

Re: Competitive streak

I have never won anything, but that could be to do with, me never entering any.

I do know a family that enter a lot of competitions, they have won a very lot of prises. Best one being a new car.
