What kind of giveaways?  Contests?  Sometimes I waste my time doing this.  I never win anything so mostly I am like why bother.  And most of the contests when you fill out the form you are also giving them permission to call you and try to sell you something else.

I sign up for any giveaways that seems to interest me, but I never have any luck with winning anything.

Yes, I do participate in all kinds of giveaways, but I never win anything.  Do you have any advice?

I enter every giveaway, contest and/or sweep that I would like to win.  I visit a couple of sites that are nothing but sweepstakes/contests/freebies at least a couple times a week to enter various sweepstakes/contests.  I have won quite a few items.  Some small, some larger.  I did win an all-expense paid vacation to Hawaii this year.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed for another vacation or a new car next.  I do have to admit that I generally have to spend an afternoon unsubscribing to all the sites that are linked to the sweepstakes/contests.  But it is worth it when I win something!

Every day that I'm online!!! I favorite the links to the ones you can enter every day, and enter both cash and prizes giveaways/contests. So far all I've won is three PRAI skincare products, but I was super happy about that! I haven't been entering for long anyway, only started this season. :) You can't give up! Also, it helps a ton to set up an email account that you use solely for entering contests, for the simple reason that your inbox may get inundated with mail/newsletters/spam.  :thumbsup:

If it's of interest to me, sure.  Won a really nice one from Target a few months ago.

I don't get caught up on giveaways, too much of your business info is needed.  And it isn't always a win-win.

I've pretty much always assumed the giveaways were fakes :P
I would be interested in any sites that you guys have actually won something from (no matter how small)!

I have won giveaways that weren't on giveaway sites, like associated with other websites just doing it as a short promo, so I'm not totally unlucky. lol
