I've won an autographed cookbook, spices and utensils from Emeril's site. In January I won a Nintendo 64 game unit from the Pizza Hut website. I won a $50 Lands Ends gift certificate from Searchers. I won N'Sync concert tickets last summer from the Cleveland Plain Dealer website. (My 13-year-old daughter was pretty pleased because I never would have paid that price for tickets!) And tickets to the Western Reserve Historical Society museum and three books from that same Plain Dealer website. That's it.

Just enough to keep me thinking, "Hey, somebody has to win! It could be me!"

I played at Gamesville for YEARS and never won anything.

Yesterday I got a notice in my email that I have one a Tony the Tiger soccerball from Kellogs though! I haven't said anything to my daughter, but she'll be thrilled when it comes, in about 3 - 5 weeks!

I've won from a lot of places... I call it the second half of my online job (first being Ebay) But I enter between 200-500 a day, depending how much time I have after I am done with Ebay. I've never won at Gamesville but I don't really try on there. I have won two $5 GC to Burger King from Sweepsclub in the last 2 months, and $5 from Windough. Those are probably the two closest sites like Gamesville that I try on. I do Scratch for Cash every day but have yet to win on there. Eventually I will I hope. :)

If you don't try, you can't win! That's my philosophy. So I keep trying.

I won the "Concha Y Toro" contest in March - they sent me a check for $16,000.00. It was kinda neat - didn't have to meet anyone, or have a picture taken, etc. Just the Fedex guy at my door with a check. I bought a big screen tv, and put the rest in savings. Gonna buy the house I live in next year, and use the money I won as a down payment. Never coulda done it without the win.

Thanks!

I also won the gc from Eluxury last year. And last month I won the monthly prize package from Seahawks.com (a t-shirt and cap). That's a big deal because it had the new seahawks logo, which isn't for sale to the public yet.

Now if one of those lottery tickets I keep buying come through...

I won a HP Scanner from a survey I don't even remember taking, the lingere wardrobe from Loveable, a contest I found on this board and several $5 and $10 checks from different places.

Someone is going to win.... it could be one of us just as well as anyone else. Keep trying !!!! :D ;) :p :)

That gives me lots of hope...to win the big one.. I won the cybiko handheld game when that contest was running..I also won the eluxury gc, but never used it(there was some problem with them charging a huge amount for shipping), I won a very nice hair care kit from pantene but didn't remember entering anything to get it,I won $30 and a couple months worth of candy at chew the clue..I recently won a harry potter t-shirt on that find the owls game and won a emergency menopause kit from being signed up for a women's freebies newletter.
I also won some kind of bag from jackpot a long time ago, but never got it. I wrote to them and they said it had been sent, so end of story. I also should have got something from olay but they cheated and didn't give it to me, so heads up on them... I've also gotten quite a few things, puzzle eyeshadow, lotions, etc. from being one of the first 1000 or whatever for signing up for things... and before the internet, I won a 27 inch tv from a local store promotion and a vcr from being one of the first to send my entry back to fingerhut..I also can't remember everything, but I'll remember when I get the big one from pch... Congrats to all...:cool: :eek: :cool:

I don't if this thread is depressing or exciting. I've been entering contests for years, and NEVER won a big prize......I've almost given up hope!!!! So, excuse me for sounding a little down. It seems my luck is NO good!

Boooooooohooooooooooooo!

I must say I do have house full of Freebies thanks to BBS, and Mypoints. I want the money tho...!

So its half and half on my end. Everytime I enter a sweeps I never win. So consider yourself lucky.

My best win was from a local radio station. The contest was "Why I deserve a week in bed with pay". I said, "Because that's where I do my best work." (Just a little white lie on my resume'...LOL) The DJ even tried to make an appointment with me. It was a little embarassing, but I ended up with the $150 prize.
