A competition magazine often contains news about the latest postal competitions, NPN prize draws, lists of winning slogans and competition related articles. Well known competition magazines from the publishers Oxfordshire Press and Accolade Publishing include Winners Friend, Simply Prizes and Competitors Companion (note that a website of the same name has no association with the magazine).
Away from the "mainstream" publications you may prefer to seek out independent publications. Published every month, Compers Grapevine provides you with a shopping list of current and forthcoming comps to look out for, detailed info on the current month's comps including answers to questions, Winning tiebreakers, General comping advice and chat plus adverts for useful comping services - entry form services, get-togethers and comping publications!
We don't make any recommendations about these titles but you can get a lot of the information in these magazines from free online resources including our forums. You can also find out what real compers think of the publications and recommendations they make... reading them could save you money!
Prize Magazines
As well as the traditional comping "solutionist" magazines you can also purchase puzzle competition subscriptions like Prizes Galore and Puzzler These feature a wide range of puzzles and competitions for you to enter, often with big prizes.
Again, Loquax makes no recommendations about any of the titles listed. For the best advice about the quality of the publications why not visit our forums and ask other compers for their opinion?
