Re: My "First" Wins
I started sweeping in October to try to win my daughter an iPad and found so much more out there! My first win was within a couple of weeks - a $100 Check from "It Pays to Eat Pasta" It was unexpected, because the check just showed up in the mail. I've had lots of little wins - gift cards, free product, t shirts, etc. Every little bit helps, as times have been really tough for my family. In January I won a MacBook Air! Shortly after that I won a beautiful Adrianna Papell dress which my daughter is wearing to prom. I've really enjoyed entering contests - I know this sounds silly, but it's like window shopping every day. I can't afford to buy, but I might actually win! I sent referrals for several contests to my mom, and she won $1000 for herself plus $1000 for her Church's youth group in the Church's Pay it Forward contest! I try to check SA every day to see what's new out there and really appreciate the resource. I think it just takes diligence - enter a lot to win a few. I'm still trying for that IPad though!!
