Happy New Year!

Well my comping year has come to an end and it hasn't been too bad. November brought my biggest win of the year - a Cheshire Passport (Loads of vouchers for family days out) - and we've already started to enjoy this one with trips to the zoo, aquarium and museums to name but a few. I've had a few more small wins up to the end of the year. All I want to say now is "Happy New Year & Happy Comping in 2010!"

Best month this year!

October proved to be a great month. So much so in fact, it was my best month so far this year. I managed to scoop another 6 wins including a tasty surprise hamper of marinades, a shopping voucher and some tickets to another food festival. Today, I received my first prize for November - afternoon tea for two at a local country house hotel. I look forward to that one!

Two more months of prizes

Well it's been a hectic couple of months so an update to my comping progress is long overdue. August finished with a few more wins (Cinema and picnic concert tickets plus a DVD). September brought me more DVDs as well as a beautiful sewing chest and some theatre tickets. Now it's October and I've been lucky enough to win a scanner and a DVD so far this month. Not a bad few weeks! Comping is a great hobby!

A new month

It's been a while since I posted anything as life has been extremely hectic. Two further wins rounded off July - a great DS accessory win for my son and then some hair straighteners and products for me (My daughter claimed them!). Now we're into a new month and today brought two more wins and delivery of an outstanding prize. The postman delivered a DVD I've been waiting for and a surprise t-shirt. Later, I got a WEM to say I've won a family ticket to a butterfly attraction. We visited a butterfly farm earlier this year and really enjoyed it so hopefully we'll have a great day out when the ticket arrives in the next couple of weeks. Comping is full of surprises. That's one of the things I really enjoy about it.
