Mumsnet Talk

because ages ago i won a prize and replied to MN that i didn't want it because my children were too young for it (that's before i realised they do eventually grow up... doh!).

but i wonder if, as a result, i am on some kind of blacklist or something [conspiracy theory emoticon]??

or maybe i am just unlucky...

Guess you're just unlucky

In the deepest darkest past when mn was very small and very quiet I used to win loads of competitions! I haven't won for ages and ages now. (Though to be fair I don't always enter.)

But I've done loads of book reviews this weekend - I want to win the set of books for our school library

This one is mine!

I hate to sound like I am showing off, but I have won 3 times on MN (please don't blacklist me, I am still in need of a Wii or a holiday). This is just good luck and the fact I have used the site for several years now. I must win about once a year.

I have won more than one prize - 3 or 4 from what I remember. However not wn any MN prize for ages now well over a year for sure.

Can i ask a newbie q... are you only allowed to discuss MN comps in the Talk section as most of the threads I've read in this section only seem to refer to MN sponsored/promoted competitions?

I have finally won, this month, and have been here 6 years
hope i win again soon hhee

I only won a competition once but still haven't had the prize (supplier's fault obviously not MN) - though did wonder at the time if that stopped me from winning a Joggler to review the following week when I obviously deserved one SO much ...

same happened to me bs, I won some nappies when my dc were way beyond that stage and it was redrawn...
I need a Wii for Xmas please... <shakes coppers out of very empty purse>

Ive won 3 comps on MN and been here 5 years

Been here 5 years, not a sausage, despite entering anything and everything.

I have won once in 5 years.

i've won twice - xt macclaren buggy (on dd3 now) and a dyson

been here too long

Lucky buggers

Mutter mutter mutter mumble moan

I won once, was very very happy, but was allocated the girlie prize of lots of barbies and only have son's. I love entering, it is buying a lottery ticket, there is nothing wrong with hoping - even if I am more likely to be hit by a bus

I've been here 6yrs and never won anything <sulk>

I won in 2004 and 2008. But I do want to win again .
