How Long Did It Take to Win?

[ihopeimlucky]

Greetings. How long were you entering sweepstakes before you won something and what type of sweepstakes was it (one entry, daily entry, unlimited, etc.)? I was entering multiple sweepstakes daily for many months, but never won anything, so I stopped. I'm getting back into it, but I wonder how long it took for different people, what type of sweepstake, and what the prize was. Thanks!

Here's a thread where you can get some tips - most come here to sweep, not talk like they might elsewhere;

NOT WINNING ANYTHING? Tips on WHY:

Some see sweeping as a zero sum game, where if I win, you lose, but I view it a bit differently - opportunities abound for those willing to commit the time & energy, and while it doesn't give a return equal to our input, if we are consistent, persistent, and patient, the possibilities are...

The hobby of sweepstaking is one of Patience. It can take many months to be notified of winning anything. Mostly this is because you are entering a sweepstakes that will not end for many weeks/months. Even after the end of the sweepstakes, it can take a long time to notify you of the win. This is why Instant Wins can be a lot more fun--you are notified right away of the win. But then you must be patient waiting to receive the winning item. I have been entering sweeps for a long time. I have won 1x entry, multiple entry, instant wins, etc. If time is limited, I focus on 1x entries (you have the same chance as everyone) and entries for large items I really really want. Happy Sweeping!!
