Way back September 2nd, I won an IW on this sweep. It just said I won Dancing With The Stars gear. I don't think it closed till end of December, but sometimes they go ahead and send out prizes ahead of time. Anyone get their IW yet?

Here is my situation: I won a trip to Las Vegas. My DH didn't want to go so my friend who lives 25 miles from me is going. She said she would drive us to airport. I haven't driven in years. (I know...bad girl!) We are to leave from Eastern Iowa Airport Wednesday morning. She plans to pick me up...

Yesterday, while entering a sweep (not sure now which one it was, but I might see it when enter again later today), there was a small notice on page. I just caught it when I was leaving the page, but it was something about certain email providers blocking spam and therefore not good email...

Was pleasantly surprised to find congratulations msg in my inbox today. I won the April 8th drawing for a $100.00 gift card at their site. They have good shoes so will pick up another couple pairs of my favorite Clarks clogs. Only shoes I can really wear and be comfortable in. Last week I won a...

I have been thinking for some time I should change my email address. I just don't think the word "addict" is good to have on a sweeps address. There have been a couple that wouldn't accept the word. They obviously don't know what hostas are LOL! What do u think? Most importantly, how on earth do...

Last year I won a lot of IW's from e-prize sweeps. So far this year I haven't hit a singe one. It seems like now that they have all those "spin to win" type of sweeps I can't hit any of them. Just wondering if it's just me or if others are having hard time winning any of those???

We were gone for couple hours and when got home there was box in garage delivered from FedX. Was a nice big box of all different Zatarains products. (I love their dirty rice as I throw hamburger, onions and green peppers in it.) Lots of other varieties and several jars of spices too. Surprised...

Back in October I won a pie server. Rules said would be sent 8 to 10 weeks after sweep ended (ended 12/17) I'm asking because I seem to remember others posting they got theirs a long time ago, before sweep ended. Just wondered if anyone else still waiting. I guess I have until end of February...

Yesterday UPS dropped off a box and in it was the LL Bean Men's Tuckerman Jacket ARV $179.00 that I won on the Weather Channel Top to Bottom Ski Game awhile back. What a coat that is!! Funny thing tho..was expecting an email to at least ask what size we wanted, maybe what color, since I checked...

Last night I was playing the Glad Holiday sweep (the one that you open the oven door) and when I opened the oven door, the screen went totally black. I sat there for quit awhile wondering if I was going to get a winning screen or something. After a few minutes, I refreshed it, and it said...

UPS just came to door with some big packages. One was my shaw rug (I had to sign for it) and the other was a surprise win from the Family Video IW sweep. I didn't think I won on that one even though I got a winning screen, as someone else had posted they won. Only was one prize per day so I...

O won a $25.00 Shell gift card last night on this one. Did a search and closest Shell station is over 60 miles from us. LOL! I also have been carrying around another Shell card I won earlier, hoping to see a Shell station.

Won a min submarine from Tetra. I had given up ever winning on that one. I admit I had been playing it thinking it was one of those that you swim with and it pulls you thru the water. Turns out it is a remote controlled toy one, but I'll take it for the grandkids. Also found in my junk email a...

Won a $179.95 Tuckerman's jacket this evening! So happy to win the jacket. Looked it up at LL Bean and nice! Has been a real dry few weeks so hoping my luck is changing.

I entered the Fall Memories sweep from Shutterfly and didn't get a winning screen. Today I got a notice I had till November 30th to claim. I went thru my old notifications and only thing I can find was a response from a daily entry thanking me for entering and saying that I should go and "claim...
