Do you enter sweepstakes and contests online? I am always filling out things for sweepstakes and contests from reputable sites, but have yet to win anything. I feel like I will win one day so continue to do this. How about you and if you do this, have you ever won anything?

I have been entering on line competetions for years, and have eventually got fed up with it. Only on Toluna have I ever known anyone who has won a prize. It was £150 cheque- in FF, so lost something in the exchnge rate as it took months to arrive- and the bank still wanted something like £15 for processing a foreign cheque!

I know I have also for years, I see people winning, but no one I would ever know to really be ever to confirm. I have not decided to give up yet, keep trying but will probably stop eventually.

Hi,
I did win some contests,but not a big prize,it is just a consolation
prizes,but I feel happy about it.
At least, I have the luck to win something.
As for sweepstakes, Have trid to buy some,but never strike.No luck!!
Even my husband have been buyin lottery for more than a year and he
still don't have the luck to strike yet.

Now the lottery would definitely be the best sweepstakes to win of course. I keep trying for that too, I can't give up even though I know the odds are not in my favor. I try to win things from magazines, but have not yet, but keep trying anyway.

I sign up for contests, still, though I haven't won anything lately. It seemed like I used to win contests a lot, but not so much now. I realized that most of my contest wins were all from the same site and that site changed management and no longer offer the contests they used to. I never won anything big, just things like cds, dvds & t-shirts.

I think it is still good that you won something, regardless of it not being so big. Still makes you feel happy and excited.

I am the same way. Although I've never really won anything relatively major, but I can't seem to stop filling out things. I always feel that I am lucky somehow, which I have never really proven.
I won a basketball when I was a kid, but that was it.

I really do not fill out for any form of sweepstakes or contest as I suppose I would never be lucky like that. The only thing I suppose I will get is an email in-box full of spam.
Good luck to you, I hope you can share that you something great.

I fill out so many things. I use to win things a lot when I was little and want to try to be lucky again. I hope I win something so big that it helps both of us out...that is my wish right now.
