Have you ever won anything by calling into the radio station?

Yes I have won many times, but the best one was about a year ago. I had entered a radio contest online and if you heard your name announced on the radio you had a half hour to call in and you'd win 1 thousand dollars. Well one afternoon my phone rings and a women asks for me, I thought it was a solicitor so I was about to hang up when she said she lived in my hometown and had just heard my name announced on the radio and that she looked up my name in the phone book for our town and luckily found me on the first try. I called in right away with shaking hands, and I won the thousand dollars! When I got the check, I cashed it and drove straight to her house(I had asked her on the phone for her address to send a thank you card)and handed her $100. She didn't have to go out of her way that day to find me, and I wouldn't of won without her.

Hey there moon! Awww.. makes me reminisce. Yeah, I won a music cd once when I was hooked up with my radio. It was almost 9 years ago if I'm not mistaken. One thing I really hated back then was the difficulty in getting through to their phones. It was very very busy and there is really the "luck" factor in calling them up. So, I tried to call them, and they wanted caller #5. I just tried and tried. Then, I got the ring. They asked me a few questions while a song was playing then after that, they introduced me and I answered correctly (it was the first single of a local artist). Got the cd a few days back. It was fun. Good times!

I used to win stuff all the time because I listened to the radio all day. I still do, but I'm not as lucky as I used to be I guess. I've won numerous concert tickets, CD's, prize packets, tshirts, etc. You have to be persistent!! Good luck...you can do it!

I did win tickets to a huge concert from 101.5 kfly I won it off there website. They called to let me now and it sucked because I couldn't go because I had to work(babysitting) so instead they sent me a bunch of CD's and a DVD and a bunch of band posters. So I guess that was cool too.

I once won two tickets to attend an outdoor sports show - where they exhibit boats and campers and such.

Its been a whhile but I've won $100 twice from a radio station. The thing is, you win, you give them your address, they send you the tax forms and after a month or two you get your winnings. Its not an overnight thing, thats for sure! Cheers, Tianna

yup!!! i won a t-shirt. it was really fun. i hear my voice over the radio it was very funny

I won a pair of concert tickets from a radio station. I'd seen my grandmother participate in her station's radio games for years and she did win a few prizes over time. She listened to the radio all the time though. A few years ago, I was commuting to work (about 2 hours a day) and got to be a regular listener of their morning show. At the time, they were playing a really popular song from a local band. I lived near Austin at the time, so we'd get to hear alot of good new music. Well this one band in particular, WideAwake, had a song I really wanted to buy but it wasn't available in stores, this was their first big break. When I heard the radio station was having a contest for tickets to a big concert they were having, and that WideAwake was going to be there, I just had to call in. Luckily, they ran the contest for over a month, since I had to try so many times, but my persistance paid off & I won a pair of tickets a few days before the contest was over. ps. When the big day finally came, hubby and I had a blast. I even found the groups CD "Bigger than Ourselves" for sale. I really hope they do well and was glad I got to support them when they were first getting started. Thank You MIX 94.7

Years ago when I was in my teens. It was around the time the "Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band" movie came out. The one with the Bee Gees and Peter Frampton. A local radio station was giving away the sound track to the movie. This was back when it was albums! And I was the right caller and won the album! But that has been the only time I have been lucky enough to win anything from a radio station.

I am not interested in this actually, but once when everyone were at home for a gettogether, my sister called into a Tv station, we think we answered them right, but they said we went wrong and so, nothing we got...but you know, what i got from that thing, a new friendship of a person working there, it has been five years back, he is still a friend to our family, quite different right, so..i think i have won friendship..hahaha

No I have never won anything, because I have never entered for anything. All the competitions and stuff cost money to apply the and the chance of winning is slim, so I would rather keep the money in my pocket. It is nice they gave him a CD.

I once won tickets to a local show by being the right number caller. I didn't have to answer any questions just be caller number 12 or whatever it was. It was a pretty good show, I wouldn't have gone to it though if I hadn't won the free tickets. I have also won a few things by sending in a postcard for drawings the stations were having. I have never one the grand prize or anything really great though. I think the last thing I got was an umbrella. I don't remember trying to win that but who can't use a free umbrella, right?

It has been a good many years since I have tried to win anything on the radio. I have won things in the past though. I can't remember exactly what it was, but I think I won tickets to something. Geez my brain must be in slow mo, cause I just can't think! Anyway, it is possible, you just have to be persistant and have a knack of timing when to call when they are asking for a certain number of caller. Good luck!

i won a free vinyl record once by sending my name in and winning a drawing. problem was i couldn't collect it cause i was a teen without a car and my dad didn't want to take me in. but at least i won something. :D

unfortunately, i haven't won anything on radio. in fact i haven't won in any contest or raffle on radio or tv. maybe i was not just that lucky. so i don't join one now. right now i received an invitation from corel asking me to join their contest. its like a campaign for a green environment too. i am thinking about it quite some time. i wanted to join but i think i will not win anyway.

I've tried before but never had any luck winning anything by calling into the various radio stations. I've talked on a few radio stations in general, even got a few letters I sent in read & responded to, but I never won any prizes. Ah well. I guess having them read my letters I wrote in & talking face to face.. or I should say, phone to phone to radio is more then enough for me!
