It has been a while but here we go - WHINE Dry for May 
I'm entering more then ever and winning less than ever LOL The SearsSYW sweeps frustrate me the most because you can see how many people are in a particular sweep and my stats to date 6 wins in 1359 (6/1359) and the 6 weren't big wins. Plus some people win every day. The blog sweeps are also frustrating because I now have a twitter so I can gain more chances and haven't hit a blog win in 6 months - very frustrating. I think I am going to take June off and see if I can rekindle some motivation. Good luck to everyone else

Thought I'd come here to whine, instead of whining to my wife, or drinking a bottle of wine! I enter a total of 200ish daily and IWs, plus a pile of 1-entries, but the past 3 months have produced coupons for the most part (we do love coupons though). February was an awesome month after winning two game consoles, but it also got my hopes up a bit. Not sure how much longer I can enter for 3+ hours a day, but I'm trudging through! I keep thinking how great it would be to get a month ahead on the mortgage, or have a down payment for a newer car (the old chevy turned 10 this year). Anywho, there it is. Hopefully there's an oasis over the next sandbar!!

I'm not sure that tweets from Rafflecopter Blog contests give you any entries at all. When other people enter using the link in your tweet, it doesn't give you a 'referral entry' as with standard sweeps. Also I noticed that when I tweet and click 'submit' it adds an additional entry, but then the next day the number of entries decreases by 1 (as though I never tweeted). I thought this was a problem with my computer, but tried on another computer and got the same result. Same thing seemed to happen when voting for blogs and other daily tasks! Give it test and see if daily Rafflecopter tasks are still counted the next day.
It took me 6 years of consistent, almost obsessive, daily entry to win a biggie - that was 3 years ago, and I've won nothing but small/medium since, and rarely.
Hang in there - there's nowhere to go but up!!!
Same here, but I have the feeling all the sweeps ending by 5/31 will take time before drawings & notifications. Probably mid to end of June. On the upside, we may still see something come from sweeps that ended around 4/31!!!

Been awhile since posting on whiner's wall. Been entering for almost 3 years now and haven't won anything huge (4 figures+). I could use some cash wins to start paying back my student loans or a vehicle now that I finally got my drivers license (taxes be damned!). I'm entering now more than ever and in a couple weeks will be able to enter 21+ sweepstakes, so fingers crossed.
Early Happy Birthday!!!
Ughh...Going through a dry spell. Haven't won much lately. I've been mixing it up and trying different things, entering at different times etc. etc. Just thought I'd try this whiner's wall! Seems like it does seem to bring some sort of luck to some people, hope it does for me! Good luck to all as well!

Hmmm, I give it 3 stars - needs more stompy boots!!!
Other than a few Sears Shop your way small wins It has been very dry Last week I was emailed that I won a power tool from Sears but so did everyone else - LOL I know it was a glitch so I lost out on that one - I was in a "Win a watch" contest the other day and I had good feeling about it and lots of help from SA members - Then I found out I didn't win. (ironically someone from the same town as the sponsor won - hmm- imagine the odds) anyway here is my whine - Sorry to vent but Thank goodness for this thread - certainly makes you feel better to whine
