    Magazine sweeps with new prize daily ...

    I am wondering - On all of these sweeps that a new prize shows up each day, but the previous days are still there (GH, Redbook, etc) - Does one just enter the new day prize, or all the prizes that are visible. In other words is the 1st prize a 30/31 day entry and the last prize a one day...

    Guess It's a Win...

    Got a message from hanes that my "promotional offer" is backordered. Based on size (9-11), it must be socks. I know I entered to win socks on their facebook page a while ago, so I'm guessing I won. I certainly could use some new socks!! So, yea!

    April Round-Up

    After about a year and a half on break from contests, I decided to start again at the end of March. I'm trying to not spend too much time at it, and to only enter for things I would love. I went in with the attitude of "I'll be happy with 2 wins a month at this level of commitment" and April was...

    What is a "gas card"?

    What is a "gas card"? I get what it is from a particular station - like a "Chevron gas card" or a "Shell gas card". But what are these generic gas cards? I see that as a prize frequently, but I've never won one. Are they different from just a Visa or Mastercard or American Express gift/debit...

    More Pace in 2009 (maybe)

    Won another pace coupon. It didn't print, so I sent an email. I've won this twice before and had it print once. The other time they sent me coupons via mail, but I'm not sure if they will do so again. Guess I'll wait and see. I was glad to win, though, since it allowed me to post my first win...

    My Husband Won a Grand Prize!

    My husband enters less than a dozen contests a day (I have a folder in the toolbar where I put ones I think will interest him). He just sent me this IM: I had put this instant contest in his folder mainly because I thought he'd enjoy the "coke zero zero seven" wordplay. This is the first...

    Number of Entries?

    I have to say that I've never thought about it much, and assumed most contests have A LOT. Yesterday I had one of those rare phone call wins, and the woman mentioned that they had "over 11,000" entries. She seemed surprised by the number because she repeated it later. It was a one entry...

    Question about "The DVD Lounge"

    Question about "The DVD Lounge" Have others won and received their prize? How long did it take? I got an email back in mid-Oct saying I'd won a DVD. Never arrived. I've contacted them recently with no response. Just wondering if I should write it off as a no-show. Bummer - I was really excited...

    UPDATE - Mastercard Priceless $1000 Home Depot Win

    I posted before that I had a winning screen on 11/1 (perhaps the first day of the instant?). It took 3 emails before I finally contacted them and confirmed yesterday that I was indeed the winner (not a computer glitch after all, as someone suggested). The prize comes as 2 $500 gift cards - one...

    When are kids self supporting?

    Now, don't get me wrong, I love my wonderful son! See, I figured out that he costs us about $10k a year while he's in college (he has a scholarship). And he's talking seriously about graduate school. Plus, I think every adult child in my neighborhood still lives at home! I'm just wondering...
