Sorry Nora, you didn't win. plshearin won $1000 pre paid visa in the Coors Light Football Man Cave sweeps. The newsletter included part of the message sent to plshearin notifying them of their win. Some people have misread this to think they were being notified that they had won. Sorry you didn't win. Good luck, hope you win something good soon!
 
If you read the notice it says congratulations to Plus member plshearin for winning this. It tells her you (meaning plshearin) have won one (1) $1,000 pre-paid card.
 
Thank You! This is the only one that I received that has said this and in the middle it even says in huge red block w/big black letters "REPORT YOUR PRIZE HERE". As you are all aware, we get these emails all the time but this is the only one that has been completely different and I feel if was sadly a tease. I think it was unfair to state it that way and make me feel as if I won something. Now they are asking for money??
 
Nora,

This misunderstanding has already been discussed, corrected and apologized for. Here is a big thread on the topic: http://www.sweepsadvantage.com/forum/sweepstakes-winners-circle/79645-thought-you-won-$1000-sa-newsletter.html


Please read it carefully and learn how the word "you" was quoted from the winning message plshearin received; therefore, [you = pleashearin] and [you does not mean noragrahe or any of the many other people who read the SA newsletter that day].

I received the 3/3 newsletter, and it said, and I quote...

"Hello ,​​



Congratulations to Plus member plshearin she won Coors Light Football Man Cave Experience Sweepstakes. You have won one (1) $1,000 pre-paid card. See Below..."

You wrote, "Hello Nora," in your post, but my newsletter does not even say my name. I understood right away that the newsletter was reporting a win by pleashearin, and the [you] was a quote - which could be considered a typo but not a "tease." Also - I did not even enter that particular sweeps, and in addition, SA lists sweeps. It is not a sponsor or judging agency or fulfillment company so how could it know the winner and notify the winner of a sweeps like Coors? Think about how these things work.

You quote the 3/3 newsletter, after everything has been discussed and corrected. Did you read the 3/4 newsletter with the big subject line, and I quote, "Important Correction to the 3/3/3016 Newsletter - SA News"?

"Hello ,​​


In yesterday's newsletter on 3-3-2016 there was mention to a $1000 pre paid gift card win that was ALREADY won by a member. This Was Not a Individual Prize Notification from Sweepstakes Advantage. There was a type-o that should have read "she" instead of "you".


In every newsletter we review reported prizes already won by other members.


Sweepstakes Advantage does not have a $1000 giveaway or sweepstakes of any kind.


We are truly sorry for the confusion created by this.


Regards,

You also mention the "Report your Prize Here" - that is a link in every newsletter. It is like a short cut, so people can click on it to get to the SA website post their wins, and hopefully they will do so without directly quoting their winning message and avoid the word y-o-u, if they copy and paste a winning message they received.

Advice to all---
Please take the time to read the forums and current newsletters before you post on a misunderstanding that has been thoroughly discussed, corrected, and apologized for. Please think before you react - if you are not a newbie, you should be able to recognize a quoted message, you should know how sweeps are run, you should know how winners are notified. Please think things through.
