I usually do not talk about this, but, I enter contests and sweepstakes as a full time hobby. I started in 1987 and have won everything you can imagine including two cars. My most recent win was $1000 in the H&R Block $1000 a day giveaway That has been advertised on TV lately. I enter everything both online and snail mail.
It is just what I do. I am like Trump....I want to WIN! I spend about 4 hours a day entering.

@hoosieroriginal one car was a local radio sweepstakes. The other was from a national sweepstakes sponsored I believe from Kraft foods. Both I entered by mail.

I won a package of plywood paneling at a Home Show where my husband was exhibiting something else. I think the plywood was a sample......it was worthless to me.

Back when I was in high school I won $10.00 from our local radio station to a local drug store. I think I had to be the 10th caller or something like that. I have no idea what I got with my big money but the radio station and that drug store are both long gone now.

I won a Ronzoni pasta recipe contest-- it came in 2nd place.
Recently won a Lancome $150 gift certificate from their sweepstakes and I chose the Absolute Precious Cells Night Cream as my prize.
