I know I have not given it much time, only been sweeping for about six weeks. The only thing I have won so far is a flash light. I enter about 100 sweeps a day. Anyway when I read the forums and the winners circle, I see things like 4th win today or I've won tons of stuff.  So I'm wondering if these people have something the rest of us don't. I don't know maybe they are using some kind of good luck charms?

It's sort of like the entertainers who gets labeled an overnight success... they usually put in a lot of hard work to get to the point of that recognition and it hardly happens overnight.

We just tend to naturally hone in on the wins, not the hundreds and hundreds of entries that just end up in a discard pile.

That would make for the most depressing forum ever if we all posted all of our losses on a daily basis.

That said, I have built a "lucky" reputation among my friends because of the stuff I do win and I go along with it.

But I know that the only reason they see me as "lucky" is because I've taken the time and put out the effort to get my name in the hat at all, and I do so regularly, hundreds of times a day in hundreds of different hats.
