Are you a competitions enthusiast who enjoys researching and writing tie-breakers? Or do you prefer the laid-back approach, entering prize draws by writing your name and address on a postcard and sending it off? Whatever your choice, some magnificent prizes are available to you.

Most successful 'compers' - colloquial for regular entrants - enter as many promotions as possible, whether these involve skill (answering questions, completing tie-breakers etc) or luck (names and addresses on postcards etc).
I've won many great prizes myself over the years and these tips will help you enjoy similar success.
* Look for elusive entry forms - such as for a recent Woolworths competition with five cars as first prizes. Forms were so scarce that only four people entered!
* Spend as long as you can on any tie-breaker and do not enter the first thing that comes into your head. The chances are that your first idea is the same as everyone else's. Be original if you want to win really big prizes.
* Make your tie-breaker different. Using something like 'Roget's Thesaurus' or a good book of antonyms and synonyms, look up alternatives for all the words and phrases you consider useful in your tie-breaker. This serves several purposes, including helping you to identify even more unusual words and ideas. This means your tie-breaker should really stand out from the crowd.
* Look for words to rhyme with key words and look for topical connections too, such as famous people, current hit songs, blockbuster films, and so on.
* Put your finished tie-breaker to one side for a couple of days then read it afresh. If it still sounds good, enter it; if it no longer appeals, bin it and start again.
