[susansmoaks]

The small wins are what keep me entering. I love a mailbox full of goodies after a long day at work!:beavisnbutthead:

[DianeScraps]

I just started entereing

and won a Nestle Candy Bar :-D

[sweepqueen]

This is my first post I just joined today. I have been entering sweeps for a few years now and yes people do win. I mostly enter mail in sweeps but occasionally I'll get online and enter the instant wins. I have won the following items

I've won trips to New York, Sun Valley Idaho, and Couer d' Alene Idaho.
My biggest win was an outdoor firplace along with a very nice set of outdoor furniture valued at $15,000.00. I've also won a washing machine, refrigerator, Coleman Fire & Ice Grill, I-Pod, and Video Now Player.

Just this week I won a wood ice cooler from Deschutes Brewery here in Oregon, a $100.00 gift card, and a beach towel.

There have been many small wins too. Every time UPS pulls up in front of the house everyone runs to the door to see what I've won now.

Good Luck and keep entering.

Hey Jen,

Glad you made it here today!!! You are the sweepsqueen and I still think we could all learn some really cool tricks from you, so I hope you'll consider posting a "how to" with your tricks to win sweeps!

I know Jen personally and I know that these are real wins! What she is too modest to say is that she donates some of them over to the school for silent auctions and has raised several thousand bucks for her kids' primary school, so her sweeps wins are the real deal!

So in all your spare time before you go back to hell's kitchen, I hope you'll write us up a "how to win" thread we can sticky for everyone else.

HUGS!!!

HCM

[sweepqueen]

I will try and get something written up and posted before I go back to the grind on Monday. I will say that one of the biggest things to do is subscribe to a sweepstake magazine. I belong to sweepsheet and most of my wins have come from there. The link is www.sweepsheet.com and is well worth the $'s to join.

[sh0ppette]

Congrats Jennifer, I've been winning for several years now to.

This week I've won
Congratulations!
You've Won a Summer Movie Cash Coupon worth 12.00 from Nestle Crunch
Congratulations!
You've Won a Nestle Crunch Bar

From Sherries Berries I won (don't know what contest it was from)
Each gift box has 12 berries; six fancy dipped berries decorated in our classic style, plus three dipped in a rich white yogurt topping and decorated with a hint of orange, strawberry or lemon swizzles. Three more berries are dipped in peanut butter specifically chosen to match the sweetness of our strawberries, then dipped and decorated with swizzles and peanuts to round out the dozen.

I still have a 200.00 Gift Card from Pier 1. I won last year in the ABC 25 days of Christmas contest. Everytime I go there thinking I'm gonna use it, but never have maybe this week, because they have a 20% coupon on anything expires tomorrow.

In the Mail today I recieved a free coupon for Silk Soymilk, I was a prize winner in the Cows for Silk Sweepstakes

[sh0ppette]

I won a "Romantic Dinner and Movie" from the Pond's Divine Date's Sweepstakes from Ponds today. When I say I have never won anything - believe me! The last thing I won was a stocking with toys in it from Disney. I was four years old at the time!!

[sh0ppette]

Besides, I'm usually the girl who never wins anything!

[paulamyers]

UPS came by yesterday and brought me my Rachael Ray Olive Oil that I won in Redbook's December 2006 "Win It! Sweepstakes. I love to watch Rachael Ray. I'm ready to start cooking.

[liane66]

Well, I mentioned this win in a vent, but I want to post it here as well. I won Motorola's Ultimate Fan Sweepstakes Superbowl Trip for 4. I've been sweeping for a few years (and even won a trip before) but I have never won a prize as big as this before. The trip was first class all the way -- from getting away from the cold for a few days, to the airfare; the hotel; the gifts -- including a signed football helmet & Tiffany glass mini football, to the meeting NFL players & attending the Superbowl w/police escorts blocking traffic. It was all incredible! Whoever wins this next year will be in for a big treat (they do this every year).

[sh0ppette]

I just won a Taylor Hicks CD, don't remember what contest it was from, it just came in the mail.

[sweepqueen]

I have to brag that I recently won a Nintendo WII in the Slurpee Sweepstakes. Now we just have to wait 6-8 weeks for it to show up. I sure do love sweeps.

Is there anyone else here who belongs to SweepSheet? This is where I find most of the sweeps I enter and have had some really great luck.

[jenjacobs]

I just joined SweepSheet because of you. Figured it can't help and sounds like fun!

[sweepqueen]

I just joined SweepSheet because of you. Figured it can't help and sounds like fun!

You won't be sorry that you joined, be sure to check out conversation corner this is where you will find some of the instant win online sweeps. I've been subscribing to SweepSheet for about 4 years now and all of my big wins have come from entering off SweepSheet.

Good Luck!:PinkElephant:

[jenjacobs]

Thanks Sweepsqueen. At first my DH laughed at me but then he read the wins online and the bio in the first newsletter I downloaded. It is fun and easy - I started keeping index cards and 3X5 paper in my purse so I can do basic name/address/phone while in line or waiting places!

[pattygirl]

Rec'd a beautiful tote (sailor stripes in black and white) just darling!

Letter from Glamour stated I entered a stay fit and fabulous promo ( I can't recall)

[sweepqueen]

Last week I won a Nintendo DS Lite and Happy Feet Game.

[ishamarie]

I love sweeps, I've been playing for about 2 years... I've won tons of little things and a few big things... I'd love to win a trip!! But my top 3 are

1. I won the Lenovo sweeps grand prize about 8 months ago for a realllllly nice laptop
2. I won Jose Cuervo about a year ago for a Serious Satelite system with a free subscription(hubby loves this one)
3. I won some lotion game for an Orla Kiley (sp?) purse worth $250 about 2 months ago!!! I just got it, and its the ugliest thing I've ever seen, looks like a bowling bag lol...

[jujubee]

Just recently I won FAMILY DOLLAR'S cover your basics sweepstakes and won the grand prize of $300.00. :mad6::mad6::mad6: <------- this is what i did when i found out...lol

[mrsliberty]

I always enter sweeps and don't win....

Until recently! I was so excited to learn that when I won a sweeps from baby.com! I had signed up while they had a sweeps to win the Dunstan Baby Language DVDs, and I won!

Now if only my bean would stick...

[lilymaid]

You can imagine my surprise today when the UPS man knocks on the door (waking me & my DH up of course...we have a crazy sleep schedule) and there's a box from Young America, MN that I need to sign for. I wasn't expecting anything, but Young America is where a lot of refunds are from, so I start to open it. Then DH realizes it's addressed to him and he's getting pretty excited, so he opens it. It's a CAMCORDER!! He looked surprised and said, "I won!!"

Apparently, he had entered codes from Pepsi caps online for a contest (I'm not familiar with the game, myself) and he put 1 code into the camcorder drawing and the rest into the $25 drawing, since he figured he had a better chance at the small cash amount. He only had about 8 caps to enter, and one of them WON!!

This sells for $225 on Amazon. Here's a link to what it looks like:
Amazon.com: Panasonic PV-GS80 MiniDV Camcorder with 32x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom: Camera & Photo (http://tinyurl.com/2verq2)

What a great surprise!!

Surprise win in the mail today (big surprise considering I haven't entered any sweepstakes since January!)

From the Become a Disney Pirate Sweepstakes

ONE THOUSAND (1000) FOURTH PRIZES: Jack Sparrow Eastern Dragon Ring (size 10). ARV: $129.99 ea.

The ARV HAS to be a total joke... Theres a couple of rough spots on the inside of the ring that would hurt like heck to try to wear if it fit you. DH is going to sand them down then we'll give it to DD to play with.

[hotcouponmama]

If any of you caught Extreme Home Make Over a couple weeks ago and there was a little girl who had cancer, that was a family down the freeway from us a bit in Corvallis Oregon. Legend Homes, the builder who built their new home, had a contest on their website for residents of Oregon. The first 10 ppl to email them and answer all the trivia questions from the show would win either a $50 gas card or the grand prize was an autographed Extreme Home Makeover T-shirt from Ty Pennington and the design team.

Got an email that I was a winner - not sure which prize I got yet - so I'll have to post when I get it, but with the exception of gambling type winnings, I really never win much in the way of contests and such, so woo hoo!

[CouponCougar]

congrats to you! And thanks everyone! My sister thinks I am totally wasting my time entering sweeps. She's not a believer. I told her "You gotta be in it to win it!"

[surrogacyrocks]

My largest win to date is my 40" Samsung flat screen LCD. I've been sweeping on and off for about four years now. I haven't done it much over the past year though. :(

[rockhound24]

I won a Rachel Ray mixing bowl instantly today at nabiscocrackers.com. Yay!

[chartline]

I won a $10 Blockbuster gift card from the Herbal Essence sweeps!:BigHand:

[ShoppingCartDiva]

Wow, so many people who won things! I have never really won anything, and I would consider a $20 GC a BIG prize! Hehe. The last thing I remember winning was a Dr. Pepper shirt when I was in HS.

Every time I go to events, my family wins (never me). 3 weeks ago went to Michael's and signed up for a drawing, my Mom won. A few months ago went to a QuicKutz event at a Scrapbooking store, my Grandma won the grand prize. Never me! :D

[MiJeBa1979]

I won a $500 rug from Shawfloors.com and a $25 gift card to Target from their holiday game.

I had never won anything before!

[The Bead Lady]

congrats on the rug! I really wanted one of those!!! LOL! The target card is good too!

[mocha poka]

:party47: Congratulations to everyone who has won!

I don't enter much, except when I get an e-mail to enter a contest. I get these from Pepsi and SoBe all the time, lol. I just click the "enter" button and am automatically entered.

I've actually won twice! One was 5 DVD's (Tomb Raider, Orange County, Sahara, The Italian Job and School of Rock) and yesterday I received a box from SoBe with 6 t-shirts in it! This was the best :BigHand: cause there were 3 different prints in two sizes so I got a set and DH got a set also.

[jesekknitasmom]

Just got an email that oldest DD won the 21st prize in the Prize a day giveaway from Kidzworld. Can't wait to see what she won. SHe's lucky. She won a prize from Hasbro back at Christmas.

[MOM2SNOX]

LOL! Just saw this thread after reading this article from Phoenix! The guy's been entering contests since he was 12... now has 30 yrs worth of winnings in his house! And he's STILL entering contests!
Winner Takes All! (http://thephoenix.com/article_ektid55869.aspx)

[aaahchuu]

Tuesday I received a Duracell Mobile Charger/batteries from Q&S! :BigHand:
When I filled out the form I was thinking I really need this, hope I win it...so I was tickled when I opened the box.

Several years ago I won $100 worth of Redkin products. That was nice too!

Good luck to everybody and never give up!

[rockhound24]

I won 2 different things from the Rachel Ray/Nabisco website. I got a "garbage" bowl and a blue apetizer server. Yay! I really didn't think I would win anything.

[rockhound24]

I won the coolest package from a local radio station. I entered online, and won a trip for me and 4 of my friends to see Matchbox 20. A limo came and picked us up, and we were brought to the World Arena. We got to listen to the sound check... we were the only ones in the arena and Rob Thomas talked to us from stage! Afterwards we got to have autographs signed and talk to all of the band members. We were then taken to Outback for dinner, and brought back to see the concert. We got front row center tickets!!! It was an amazing show, and probably one of the coolest nights I've ever had. Thanks Alice 105.9!!!

[upallnight2]

I've only won smaller prizes in the past :bike, gave away to a cousin b/c it was too small(what was I thinking when I entered?), night cream from a mag, 2 concert tics from local radio, and a necklace from the 'O' mag(love it!). Very happy I can now get "grown-up" bedroom furniture!

I entered a contest from a hair salon to win a $200 gift certificate and a Chi flat iron (those are expensive and I've been wanting one for years.) I had to write an essay on why I deserved the certificate and Chi.

Got the email today saying I won! I rarely win contests and really wanted to win the Chi. I'm so excited, I just had to tell someone! lol :BigHand:



mod: feel free to move my post to put it under the "i never win anything" sticky, just realized it was there.

[naless]

I won a contest from American Baby Magazine for 6 months of Stroller Strides Classes valued at $300.:BigHand:

Since I have gained 35lbs since having the baby (how I managed that you ask, Betty Crocker Warm Delights were .25 each I stockpiled then ransacked my stockpile:whistle67:) I really needed to win.

[wealthybarney]

I have been entering sweeps regularly for almost 5 years. Hardly ever won anything, and became sooo discouraged. I guess this year, it is my turn.
In January 2009, I won a $100 Chevron Gas Card.

My Biggie win was in February 2009: (A one-time Sweepstakes entry).
Sharp Aquos 42" HGTV TV-it was my first win over $500. Worth $650.

March 2009 I won huge basket of Beauty Products-Organic.

I was entering over 135 sweeps daily-mostly from Sweepstakes Advantage online site. It took an average of 6 hrs-sometimes more.

Then I found HCW, & had a computer virus(probably from the Sweeps Sites) that still isn't fixed, so I haven't been entering since third week of March.
Since joining HCW in late January, I have saved $676. in groceries only. I love HCW, it has been worth the time & am so thankful for it.

wow I won it from the subway instant win game! My kids are so excited!

[ladycat00]

One of the food companies for which I signed up for their mailing list is Michael Angelo's

In early February I got this email:

http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j286/ladycat_2006/Stuff/macontest.jpg

Since I only needed to do a quick click to enter, I did.

I had NO idea I won until I got a big box from FedEx today.

In the box was

An envelope with coupons for free Michael Angelo frozen entrees.

An envelope with a gift code and instructions to redeem for a FREE YEAR OF NET FLIX !!! :giggle2:

A 25th anniversary edition of the Trivial Pursuit board game

A board game called Apples to Apples Party Box (never heard of it so I looked it up here: Amazon.com: Apples to Apples Party Box - The Game of Hilarious Comparisons: Toys & Games (http://www.amazon.com/Apples-Party-Box-Hilarious-Comparisons/dp/B00112CHCK) )

Now I've got to figure out what to start ordering from Net Flix. I want to watch some of those corporate food documentaries that I haven't been able to see yet.

I quit smoking over 4 years ago, but I still get coupons, emails & free junk in the mail every so often.

They sent me one for a sweepstakes they had going on. I figured why not, can't hurt.

They have like themes for their sweeps, bi-planes, racing, rafting, etc.

So for 8 weeks, I logged in for both myself & my husband, and did a bunch of clicking, entering all the little sub sweeps.

I get an email out of the blue, 3 days before it ends mind you, saying I won. A totally bamboo chopping block. Delivery between 8-12 weeks.

Less than 1 week later, UPS shows up, this thing is pretty big, heavy. I looked it up and it's worth $100.00.

And the best part is, I love cooking, so I'll actually use it.

I got a letter today from All You magazine and it said that I won the SC Johnson spring cleaning basket!! I am so excited, this is my first time winning a contest:smile77: Hopefully this will get me motivated to finish spring cleaning. I forget what is in the basket, I will have to try and find my march issue of All You but I think I threw it out!

I had no idea this promo was even going on! Last week I went grocery shopping, got a box of Fruity Cheerios using a free product coupon, and forgot about it as DH usually puts away the pantry items. We have cereal containers, and he poured the cereal into it not even paying attention to the silver envelope that landed on top (typical, lol). The kids wanted cereal this morning, so I reached in to get the Apple Jacks container and the sparkly caught my eye, so I opened it and Voila! $10 Discover Cash Card :BigHand: Free cereal, and we won $10, man alive I love this couponing thing as I would have never glanced at the name brands before lol!!

Second time this has happened, a few years back when Fruit by the Foot was doing their cash giveaway we won $25! Again, I didn't even know they were doing a giveaway :giggle2: I am never paying attention to anything besides the name and size to match up the coupon to it from now on!

[tiplernorth]
