Win a £50 WH Smith Voucher with National Stationery Week (CLOSED)
Win a £50 WH Smith Voucher with National Stationery Week (CLOSED)
Submitted by Kirsty on Tue, 2015-04-28 23:59
Hello again compers! How is your week going, any nice wins to report? Just one for me since we last spoke – a £5 Love2Shop voucher from a Facebook daily comp. Not a huge win, but one that will always come in handy! Can’t believe it is almost the end of April already – are you ahead of the game with End of Month (EOM) competitions, or do you prefer to tackle them head on in the last days? I am usually scrabbling to catch up on the last day, but I am actually ahead this month – not quite sure why! I partly put it down to the fact that our TV viewing in the evenings have been dominated by football and other sport this month, which has meant I have been able to get on and comp while hubby was happily watching the sports channels. I am ever hopeful of a last ditch big win before the end of the month. How about you, how has April been so far?
We are well into the school term now in our house – eldest seems to be forever busy with playdates, School Council duties, homework, swimming lessons and extra-curricular “stuff”. The youngest is getting there too with playdates and after school clubs – I often think they have better social lives than us! One thing I have noticed is that my eldest is of an age now that she really loves her stationery that she uses for homework, and is quite protective of it. She has a set of Smiggle scented macaroon rubbers that I won last year, and if her sister so much as looks at them they are whipped away to her “special box”, and there they stay until the coast is clear!
Did you know that it is National Stationery Week this week 27th April - 3rd May 2015? What better time to declutter your office and comping stationery and spruce them up with some lovely new items. There are always lots of fab competitions available to win during National Stationery Week, and here at Compers News we don’t want to be left out! For this month’s exclusive competition, just for Compers News members, you can win a £50 voucher for WH Smith, to spend on whatever you like. You could treat yourself to some lovely new art supplies if you are a craft comper, some files, folders and notebooks if you are an organised comper, or maybe some bright cheerful highlighters or sticky notes for you funky compers. You could of course spend the voucher on something entirely different – the choice is yours! If you would like to win this fab prize then simply add a comment to this blog and tell me what your must-have stationery items are as a comper. For me it would probably be highlighter pens! I use them to highlight comps that I want to enter in the Compers News magazine, and different colours relate to different things – kids comps, creative comps, comps ending soon etc.
To enter you will need to be a registered Compers News member and signed into your account, one entry per person and remember that comments are moderated and as such won’t appear immediately. The competition ends at 23:59 on Tuesday 5th May 2015, and one winner will be chosen at random and contacted after this time – good luck everyone!
Happy comping and lots of Lucky Dust to you all!

I Couldn't /wouldn't comp without my quality black fine- tipped permanent pen made by Staedtler.
Non-permanent pens are a no-no, as they could well bleed when they venture through our postal system.
Black pens rule, okay! Thanks for thge comp.

My primary 'must have' stationary must be postage stamps but I make use of other rubber stamps to decorate plain envelopes and postcards to make them stand out from the crowd! Thanks for the comp!

My favourite stationery item has to be my "write on anything" pen which has been going strong for a few years! It copes with any kind of surface and doesn't smudge!
Permalink Submitted by YTV4LDH6 on Wed, 2015-04-29 15:31
If I can choose just one then a thin tip black Sharpie pen. If I can have more stuff, then colourful envelopes and a plastic folder for keeping organised.
Permalink Submitted by MSQ5XLP5 on Wed, 2015-04-29 15:47
Those colourful folders that are made from cardboard,
I have a different design for every topic - Compers News,Current, Entered, Winning Letters. etc
I used to have one for each month but there aren't enough entry forms in the shops these days.

We all need plenty of stationary to organise our comping lives and fifty pounds will go a long way towards whatever is needed at this particular time.For me sellotape,plastic wallets,pens etc.Even an atlas will come in handy to decide whether or not to enter for weekend breaks,days out etc.Hope lady luck is shining down on everyone.
Permalink Submitted by NLF7AEL8 on Wed, 2015-04-29 20:05
My must have stationery items are definitely a good, no smudge black pen, and a good supply of bright postcards and coloured envelopes! Need to get noticed!
Permalink Submitted by HQG8WNE4 on Wed, 2015-04-29 21:37
I couldn't do without my pens & pencils. I have a shoe box full of spares which I am constantly dipping in to as my current pen or pencil disappears from my desk!
