Title: Have You ever won anything in a sweepstakes or contest?
Post by: paynesponies on August 05, 2015, 05:09:19 am
When I was in High school , I won a signed copy of a KISS album. I was in to country, and that was the '70's. In the early 80's I won a trip  certificate, which I never took, and a ball cap.
Yesterday, got a check in the mail for $10 from Publisher's Clearing House...made my day!    :party:

I have never won anything in a contest or sweeps that I actually wanted. Once I won a bucketful of cleaning supplies like Clorox and Scrubbing Bubbles and once I won a book that I had no intention of reading.

I have won several things.  The biggest was a trip to Hawaii!  I enter contests/sweepstakes every day!

 I won a radio station contest. They gave me two tickets to a fashion week runway show in my city.  The ironic part is that I couldn't care less about fashion. But it was a cool place that had free drinks, and there was a surprise visit by Wyclef Jean! It was freaking amazing! There was a picture of him in the newspaper the next day, and I was sitting so close to him that my foot is in the picture LOL

A few years ago some how I enter an online sweepstakes and one day I get on the mail a fossil watch. It was so nice.

I won a $500 visa gift card which was a big blessing because I had just gotten declared disabled and we were barely making it.  Lol I also shortly after won a $500 gift certificate to Coach.  I have also won some little prizes here and there as well.  I am waiting and praying for the big one.

Seems like the previous posts here - everyone has horseshoes up their butts. ;-) I wish I were that lucky.

Well, this will tell you how old I am, but I once won a hula hoop contest for $25.00!!!  Back then, $25.00 was worth a bit more than today!  That has been about it in the lucky contests winner department.

No, I cannot remember winning a sweepstakes and I enter them all the time.  Is there a secret to winning?

Haven't won anything major but that doesn't stop me from entering everything I can find.

I won $200 playing Pick 4 lottery once.  A few months back I won an Amazon Gift Card.  Never won anything really big, but give me a chance, I'm still workin' on it, LOL.
