Pleased to report that I won a trip to Whistler, Canada, included for 2, airfare, hotel, 3 days of lift tickets and a helicopter ski excursion.

People at Omaze were great to work with and when I told them that despite living in Colorado, I am no longer a skier, they offered me a $1000 to replace the lift tickets and heli skiing.

Already have airline and hotel booked and received the $1000 via Paypal today. And man, the hotel looks really nice. For those of you familiar with Whistler, it is the Fairmont Chateau which looks really nice to me and even includes a welcome gift of a martini shaker set, vouchers for free martinis in the lounge and free breakfast daily.

I am excited, never been to Whistler and it looks just beautiful!
 
Congrats! That's a great win. Whistler is beautiful, although I'm not sure how much there is to do if you don't ski. The Fairmont hotels are very nice too. Have a great time!
 
Big congrats ! How awesome is that?!!! Did you donate or did you just do the Omaze free entries?

Just the free entry on the Whistler one, although I have donated some in the past. Figure I would rather donate small amounts than buy lottery tickets and I guess that paid off. Plus did you know that you can spin daily under their new system and get cash credits that can be used to buy extra entries? PM if you need the details or link.

No donation on this one, but have donated to others in the past. Interesting thing now that I won this trip, I am ineligible to win another big prize for 18 months which kinda cuts down on donations I would assume. Did you see that you can now earn cash credits to buy entries with the daily spin?
 
Congrats again. Glad to see people can win without donating. No, I don't know anything about the daily spin.

Thanks for the reply! I used to enter Omaze campaigns a lot a few years ago, but haven't in over a year. I hadn't had any luck with them, so I let them go in order to focus on other sweeps. I may just have to pencil them in for 2019 and give them another go...:)
