Those that know me well or follow me on social media will know that one of my hobbies is entering competitions - I guess I can be officially classed as a "comper" having regularly entered competitions now for two years. I love finding fab prizes up for grabs, and really enjoy hunting around for great prize opportunities.
Since I began 'comping' in 2012 I have been seriously lucky with my wins - bagging everything from Kindles to £250 John Lewis vouchers, a £160 Sage Appliances juicer, stays in hotels with meals and shopping vouchers, a £300 Hotel Chocolat hamper, restaurant vouchers, toys, DVDs, clothes & shoes...even a 5kg turkey at Christmas! And so much more. It's a truly fruitful hobby that allows us as a family to enjoy so many wonderful 'extras' that we'd never be able to fund otherwise.
After having so much success I quickly inspired my hubby to start his own comping hobby too - and now between us we try to enter as many awesome competitions and giveaways as we can manage with the limited free time that we have.
We don't enter every competition we see (despite the jokes from friends/family that we do!) - generally, we only go for competitions where we would truly be excited to win the prize - or if we know someone who we think would love the prize on offer.
When Jessica over at Leisure Jobs contacted me about the fabulous competition they're running at the moment, and asked if I'd like to share it with you my lovely readers, I jumped at the chance...
Not only is it an incredible prize (a weekend in Paris for 2) but it is also a nice easy one to enter - all you have to do is share the pre-populated tweet/Facebook post/LinkdIn post with the hashtag #PerfectParis2015 and you'll be in the running.
This really is the perfect competition for any comping newbies out there who fancy their luck...
For Liam and I, Paris is a very special city - back in February 2011 Liam proposed to me atop the Eiffel Tower - we had a whirlwind long weekend exploring beautiful Paris - both of us on a euphoric high after our engagement - we loved everything about the magical city, and I would so love to return one day.
If you too would love to visit the City of Love then I urge you to enter this brilliant competition - you've got to be in it to win it as they say!
Here are the details you need to enter - GOOD LUCK!
