whiner's wall

Reading your post, I felt compelled to respond. The words to express my thoughts or lack of words is confounded. It is frustrating to see and not experience that big win, yet I feel that YOUR big Wins are the Karmic blessings of Joy. Your Kindness is most assuredly has made the impossible happen for you and those you have selflessly helped. Possible you have accumulated more valued wins then anyone here....
 
I am whining because I need a big win, all the little stuff is nice, but I want to win enough to give Christmas gifts to all I know and love, Let's go Sweepstakes Gods, please turn my luck around!!
 
Back to the whiners wall, have won anything in several weeks, and Shop Your Way has chosen to give l100 and 250 points (by the time you get enough to buy something, your points start expiring). Getting really tired of seeing " You're Not A Winner". I could really use a win to lift my spirits!!!
 
Im whining all around me people are winning cash trips tvs everything you can imagine, im trying to be poistive i really am but i need a win! This dry spell has gone on way too long

My whiney behindy is here to vent also. I've been sweeping since the 90s (yes that long) I subscribed to sweeps listings when they were still in paper form(!). Now don't get me wrong, I have won over the years and I'm grateful for every little win! But I have NEVER won anything big (nothing over $2,500 ERV.) I have literally entered thousands of sweeps over the years (many times over!) My whole goal is to try to pay off some of the mountain of student loan debt and (like most people) stop working myself into an early grave. I've worked more than one job (yes, even with a graduate degree) since I was 16. Here it is 30ish years later and I'm STILL working an insane amount of time. What am I doing with all my paychecks you may ask? I have a child that requires some specialty care and multiple medications and there's those blasted student loans. And honestly, I do splurge because after years of living on tuna and ramen noodles-it's nice to go to a sit down place and eat (And because I waited tables through grad school and I love to tip like I have no debt and expenses.) Whatever happened to the good part of Karma? (haha.) I fully understand that nobody will read this but I also understand the psychological value of a vent. I'm praying, hoping that statistics will soon turn to my favor. I'm afraid I don't believe in luck or any superstition but I do believe in mathematical odds-after all that's what actually determines a win or lose. I am discouraged though. I keep thinking surely after ALL these years and entries losing that I'll first-start winning something-anything and second-finally...FINALLY win a big one. Whine, whine, fuss. Just keep hoping...

I also have been entering since the 90's when you mailed everything in, I have never won anything off value over $200 I truly believe and feel its my time to win something big
 
Me too! WAH!WAH!WAH! I feel like I have been doing this for hours every day, and I haven't won anything for months! A year even! I'm starting to get very discouraged! :( :( :(!!!
 
*sigh* Ok...I'm Whining :(. The only thing I seem to win for the last year are snicker bar coupons...and I'm allergic to nuts :(! *shuffles over to Whiner Wall with my head down..looks up...only 1247 spaces...and they are all filled* Someone please win so I can have their spot ;)!

Ok im whinning I need a win to boost my spirits i have seen so many copehgenen, mt dew, Parliment, and Virginia slim wins and Newport wins, chicken of the sea wins I need to win and im tired od seeing im a loser on every sweeps and instant win
 
I have started to get depressed because when I first started sweeping, I won 3 trips. Now, it's like I'm wasting my life to win books. I am very thankful that I have won like 40 books this year, but I need to go on vacation so I can have time to read them! COME ON MAJOR WINS!!!
 
I am whinning i am in a long dry spell and its time for a win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I get so depressed when i see lots of people winning and i cant even win a book
 
Ok, as the year comes to an end and I am entering like crazy, I hope that the Whiners wall helps me to win something.... anything... This year has been very dry for me. I am hoping for that big win! A trip, money! airline tickets! Good luck everyone! Let's all end the year with big wins!

It's amazing you are still sweeping keelz23 - most who hit so big so fast don't last!

My biggie [$10,000] was in 2010 - after 6 years of daily entering.

I have never topped nor come close since, but every day I am reminded I *can* win when I use my bluray, buy something with Amazon codes I won/traded for, or even watching the new VIZIO TV & using the soundbar I got by earning points on their site daily for years!

My point - you DID win big so you know you CAN win big - just keep on keeping on & hopefully soon you will time it juuuuuuuuuuust right again! :cool:
 
Officially Whining! Still waiting for the BIG win (trip/cash/car) but as long as the small ones keep coming, I'm in for the long haul. But SERIOUSLY 2017 no coupons, books or even koosies! I never thought I'd miss winning a KOOSIE! Thanks all for listening (reading) & GOOD LUCK!

3/9/17 Just realized as I was posting my new whine that it was exactly 1 month since my last whine! LOL Did win 2 books from Goodreads in that time but SERIOUSLY, no I/W's (I'm talking to YOU, Marlboro sweepstakes/Yoplait/Dannon/Fry's), no "CONGRATULATIONS" emails, no surprise mail/UPS deliveries
*sigh*

Yes, I did whine on the venting thread the other day & today won both a $25 GC in Nabisco Snack Bracket & Applebee's GC ($11) in All In Burger (text). Thanks Nabisco/Mike & Mike & always SA. Keep sweeping (& whine whenever you want)!

2017 so far: Snicker's ice cream bar coupon (hasn't arrived)
Daniel Wellington watch (arrived, was a $5 knockoff)

Yay.
 
2017 has been a bust so far. I am hoping that my Whine will bring me some luck this year. Last year I had a few small wins, nothing epic. I always wanted a watch or a car or even another trip win (I already won a trip win in 2014). I enter every day and sometimes I just need to complain about not winning. I Hope this changes my luck
 
I've never won a big prize like a trip or a car. Biggest win have ever had was a big green egg bbq, i think it was worth something like $700. I guess the time to get into sweeping was in the mid 2000s. I used to win instant wins all the time back in 2010 - 2013, now hardly ever.
