    Whining leads to winning!

    I actually won something worthwhile! Woo Hoo! :thewave: I won a $100 GC to Dick's Sporting Goods. I get excited over anything I can use! I love getting to pick out what I win! Maybe this win will hold me over until vacation, after whilch I'll have renewed enthusiasm for sweeping! Maybe that's...

    For those that enter 600+ sweeps per day

    I enter 600+ sweeps a day - I'm thinking more like 800-900... I haven't won a big prize since I won a camcorder in December 2007. I've won a couple of decent prizes since then (a cell phone last July) and a Quick and Simple win in January of this year. I was just wondering if anyone else that's...

    SA is the best!

    I've been having such a dry spell lately - even though I enter about 600 sweeps a day. I was so thrilled to be one of the winners of the Twitter Twilight Board game giveaway. Twitter is easy to sign up for: http://twitter.com/home and SA's username is: @SweepsAdvantage and can be followed at...

    Gotta vent! Someone give these people a clue!

    So I get a phone call from a company saying I had signed up for a sweepstakes for a Hawaiian cruise. They said I didn't win it but thought I might be interested in purchasing a package to Branson, Missouri or Biloxi, Mississippi. Now, don't get me wrong here... but I think there's quite a bit of...

    Anyone else having problems with sweeps today?

    I am getting the following error on several sites today: This request has been blocked by the servers application firewall. Anyone have a clue what might be going on? Thanks!

    Do you refer a friend for the extra entries?

    I recently used the refer friends on a couple of sweeps that I'd love to win and was wondering how many people are getting bunches of entries every day from their massive number of friends they refer :laughing:

    Instant win poll

    Just curious on what other people do on the instant wins. I always use the option to skip or say I can't see the game. I don't know how much time I'd spend sweeping otherwise!

    Accidental Magazine subscription poll

    Since the topic's been mentioned several times lately I thought I'd see how often people have messed up.

    Can anything be done about this?

    DH won a $100 GC from Guiness that had to be redeemed by phone. During the time I was in a wrist cast I didn't see what they had online like he asekd me to. Six weeks later we call and they say the GC expired. The letter didn't say there was an expiration date & we only had it for 6 weeks. I...

    Hope someone else is on this list

    I found my name on this winners list. They don't contact you if you win and evidently take the names off the list when you claim your prize. Hopefully some of the people on this list are from SA. Good luck to all! vicki baker From holly springs , nc Winner From :5/16/2009-5/22/2009 Judith...

    Was your sweepstakes win broken or has your win ever been missing parts?

    I recently won a broken wooden toy from Beechnut and was wondering how often this happens. I've also won: a broken batman keychain a broken headband from Madberries I got a camera from WD where they forgot to send the extra battery and carrying case (they sent it after I contacted them) I got...

    I just knew it!

    Painted GD's face like a lion (OK, not great, remember I'm in a cast) and she wanted to paint mine. Since DH is out of town I knew I would end up having to sign for something. Lo and behold, UPS comes to the door & needs me to sign for a $10 iTune GC! :laughing: :laughing: Maybe I should have...

    Need lots of bubble wrap!

    OK, add insult to injury. Today I fell hard & ended up going to the ER again! :cry: I now have stitches at the crease of my pinky about 1/4 inch above mynot even week-old cast. Somehow I am having difficulty being thankful that it's not on my left hand.... although it is a good thing. My GD...
