We all have friends that have said this and probably we say.
Something like ... "If don't enter you won't win anything."
Do you have a more creative response?

Man I miss snow like this...
for a couple of minutes, then I wake up.

Glad we don't have snow like that. Yes people are always saying they never win and they don't understand when I try to explain that not only do you have to be lucky but you have to work at it. When I say I enter 20-30 contests a day, it just goes over their head and they think they should win with their 3 entries a month. Oh well they are not in the same level as the professional contesters.

Yep, it does take work to win, most people spend a hour a day entering.

I spend at least 2 to 3 hours off and on a day.

Yeah, an hour a day will yield quite good results if you pick good contests.

people have negative attitudes sometimes.

The dailies take no time compared to finding them. I have yet to find the balance.

I have friends who say "You are so lucky", my anwer is, no I am not, I work at it!!

My sister enters me in contest,bless her! And I win more than se does..gotta luv sisters!

Who gets to keep the prizes? Do you fight over them in a sibling way?

Perhaps we are all just lucky and quanitity of entering has nothing to do with winning LOL.

I give her half of all wins,if its money or gift cards that is if not i just tell her i love her..lol.

Being selective is helpful. I don't enter things that have really long odds (like US sweepstakes). And then automate daily entries as much as possible.

entering is fun and exciting..about 2 or 3 hours a day

I don't enter very often, which is probably why I've never won anything. When I do enter things I usually avoid contests that you can enter more than once, because I just don't like to waste that much time. I'll spend maybe an hour every week or two entering.

My thoughts exactly. I prefer single entries only. It cuts down on the number of people entering.

Single entries for me too.

which are the good contests?

Easier said than done.

I enter for about an hour a day. I like the single entry ones the most. I also like instant win contests. just started again here last month and won a $50 Canadian Tire GC.
