This topic comes up often and it is interesting, but if you look at the rules for Instant Wins, you will usually see that winning times are randomly generated. Here are quotes from the rules from two current IWs as examples:
From Lipton Youthful Spirit
A total of five thousand and eight (5,008) random, computer-generated winning times, one for each
instant win Game Prize listed below, will be generated during the Promotion Period. Odds of winning a particular prize hereunder depend on the number of eligible Promotion entries received and the date and time when a particular Promotion participant plays the Instant Win Game.
From Tonys Soak Up The Fun
At least 13 instant win prizes are available to be awarded per day. A total of 1,000 instant win prizes will be available during the Promotion Period. Prizes will be awarded randomly each day via an algorithmic program depending on the total number of eligible completed game plays for each day. For purposes of this Promotion, each day begins on 12:00:01 a.m. ET and ends at 11:59:59 p.m.
While it is interesting to see the actual time people won, isn't it is most likely just random, old-fashioned luck, chance, being in the right place at the right time? Plus, how could applying the time that a person won an IW help people win that same Instant, or other unrelated Instants?
Also, I notice that people post things like, "I won at 5:15am." Even if you believed in 5:15am as a the lucky time, how do you know what time zone they are in? Their time zone could be 1, 2, 3 even 6 hours different than yours.
Who wouldn't want to know when the ideal time to play/win would be? If winning times are random, how could you know, or how could there be an ideal time?
I wish you all the best of luck, whatever time you enter.
