Telling me I could call by going to the website. I guess after all the spam emails lately you have a hard time trusting. The email was also very plain.

That seems pretty straight forward - what is their website url?

Sounds pretty legit. If I'm not mistaken, don't they have a monthly contest giving away $250? If you are unsure, I would call or send them an email. I hope it is legit. Please let us know.
 
Sounds okay to me, nothing wrong with being cautious but don't lose out over it :sunny:
 
Thank you I tried calling the number on pillsbury no one answered but will try again. I replied back to the email figured all the info they were asking for someone could get easily its not like they asked for my ss number or DL number. thanks again if this is true its the first win since Decs Tory Burch grand prize.
 
I know I entered that one for sure! I'm sure it's real! Pillsbury is a reputible company and they usually have a contact person you can email, call, etc.. Good luck and congrats :)
 
:cheers: Congratulations! :cheers:

It looks legit to me too but I wouldn't click on any links in the email until I checked it out. Type www.PillsburyStore.com into the address bar and confirm the customer service phone number. If it checks out then there you have it, it's legit! Congratulations on your win! :cheers:
 
I replied to the email yesterday and today they sent me a gift card code for pillsburystore.com Thank you everyone this is a really nice win I can finally get a can opener. No more hand held spinning contraption.
