Apart from half a bottle of Glenmorrangie one year, I never seem to win anything. I do my "spins" every month when I put my meter readings in, never win anything and I've been doing them every month for years.
I did the lottery for 6 months and barely won my stake money back, my DiL does it and keeps an account book of wins an losses and comes out ahead every month, sometimes by a few hundred pounds and a month where she merely breaks even is a disapointment.
It seems to run in the family too, my parents had premium bonds for years and never won anythng and my Dad did the football pools for years and never won anything either.
Now I don't even bother, I know you've got to be in it to win it, but I seem to be in it to fund the gains of others!
Do you win stuff when you enter competitions?
