So Christmas is nearly upon us and it's usually my favourite time of year, but I just can't seem to get into the festive spirit. I have a lot going on with one drama or another and after much thought I think it's time I did something to cheer myself up and focus on something I love doing again Blogging! I started this blog at the beginning of the year and lost sight of why I began it in the first place. So as a new year is coming here i go again...
We are coming towards the end of Comping Advent and although I haven't done amazing this time round with the amount I have won, I am happy with the quality of prizes I have managed to get my hands on. A saucepan set from procook worth £69.99 and a Radley handbag worth £149.99. Two things that I never would have purchased myself. I don't know about anyone else but I havent got £149 floating around to spend on a handbag. One of the highlights of my comping hobby is experiencing things and owning products I could never otherwise afford. We are not at the end of the Advent season yet so i'm keeping my fingers crossed for some more fab prizes. Just quickly for those of you who haven't a clue what comping advent is it's what compers wait all year for, the month of December! The month when companies give prizes away everyday. To some it is overwhelming because there are so many competitions avaliable to enter that they don't know where to begin, but to me it is pure bliss. I started comping when i entered a competition through boredom and actually won. It was £500 to spend with Laredoute and I havent looked back since. I don't know if you would call it a hobby or competition addiction, but i love it. Over the years I have got more organised with it, but it is all about luck some months are better than others win wise, but for me it's all about the enjoyment of it. When it stops being fun i'll stop entering. I'm really looking forward to recording my comping journey and other parts of my day to day life. Thanks for visiting my blog Just Holly Marie x x x
