Compers News Members Benefits - The Wonderful Windex Database

Hello everyone!  How is your week going, any nice wins to report?  I managed a hat trick on Monday winning a book from Goodreads, a set of Sylvanian Families playing cards from a Twitter comp and a £25 John Lewis voucher from a Twitter party with Tots100.  I love Twitter parties and have a great success rate of wins from them.  I didn’t even tweet many times for this particular party as I didn’t

How To - Comping With Kids

Hello again compers!  How is your week going, any nice wins to report?  Still going through the dry spell here, nothing new to report!  We were away for the Bank Holiday weekend, so I have not been comping much really since last week.  I have spent the start of this week getting the house, laundry pile and work schedule back up to speed.  The month is coming to an end now though, and I find

Writing Winning Words

Hello again compers!  How was your weekend?  Get up to anything exciting?  It was the last weekend before our youngest started school this week, so we had a quiet one.  You know the drill – duvet days, lots of snacks, favourite foods (nachos and homemade pizzas in our case), and getting the girls ready for their first full week at school – exciting times!  It did mean I was fortunate enough to actually get some comping in though – amazing what you can get done on an iPad with Home Alone in the background and a tin of Cadbury Roses at your side!  Any wins to report?
