Contests That You Want To Win But Hate To Enter

Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about.  I'm truly picky about the contests I enter because I don't have a lot of time so if it's not a prize I really, really, really want, I just don't enter.  If it is a prize I would love to have, I'll make myself enter even if I hate the contest.  One of the main contests that comes to mind is the M & M 5 Characters, 5 Cars Contest.  You have to have a UPC codeto enter.  You can enter five times a day, but you have to have a different code for each entry.  You can use the same codes the next day, but you have to have five codes daily if you want your five entries.  That pains me to say the least.  I like those contests where you just enter your email address and spin a wheel or something.  But because I would love to have a new vehicle, I enter contests like this on a daily basis.

There are other contests such as the Simple Green contest that I enter daily but would rather not bother with.  In this contest, I can win a five hundred dollar Home Depot gift card.  That's enough to make me enter it daily even though I hate the fact that I have to enter all of my information every day and fill out their same questions every day.  It drives me nuts although it's not really all that hard to do.  I would prefer it if they would let me log in and hit a button saying I want to enter but hey, beggars can't be choosey can we?

Another one of my hated contests to enter is the Scotts Natural one.  It's not all that hard to enter, but you have to enter twice – one time for the Instant Win Game which offers a hundred dollar Amazon gift card another time for the For Fusion Hybrid.  Both prizes are worth entering separately for, but couldn't they make it easier on us already?  I've got one more of these contests that I would rather not enter but can't help myself.  That's the Scotts Miracle-Gro one.  It's not hard to enter, but you have to click on play now and watch the small bird land on the fence.  The poor little fellow is sooooooo slow and always lands on Sorry, No Prize Today.  I just have no patience for him really.  However, I would love to win a Home Depot or Lowe's gift card so I enter daily while gritting my teeth and hurrying on to other contests that don't rile my temper quite as bad.
