How long did it take you to win your first big win? I am talking at least $100 or more?

I've been sweeping for at least five months now. And haven't won a prize worth over $30.
Just wondering how long it takes till you win that big prize.

Over 7 months. I think I was lucky. Hang in there. Sweeping in a hobby of patience.
I hope a big one comes your way soon!

I won $1000.00 cash after about six months and just recently won a 4000.00 gift card from Best Buy. I guess it is just good luck and good timing. This site is really great and makes it really fun. It's like gambling with someone elses money! Keep entering and you will get your win

I got a $300ish prize win after a few months. A $100 GC for something I don't use (someone liked the gift...). Close to nothing for two whole months, then in November hit for a year of Netflix (x3 rentals) at $200ish, a $250 GC for Tessco, a $350 T-Mobile phone, and a $1300 Bowflex.
I'm not expecting much of anything in December, not even the Bacardi Silver "win".... but hey, its nice to have a month like November... Felt good just to finally win the Jose Ole coupon.... :-)

I won a $100.00 Visa just a few days into sweeping but then went through the months when I just won lotion and candy bars and that even that was fun. About 6 or 7 months in I won the Napa daily prize of a portable gas grill, $50.00 GC to Omaha Steaks and grill utensil, and a NAPA apron and hat ~ APR ~ $250.00. It was a fun win also.
I am basically in the small wins catagory, but I like them also ~ they add up. Over about the last 6 months, I have won over $1000.00 in stuff ~ well worth the time!!

a couple of months for something over 300.00 but almost 10 mths for a grand prize. you gotta just keep trying. The wins have been slow recently though. But I think they will pick up. hope so anyway.

I played a King Kong IW for 2 weeks before I won a really nice Hitachi MP3 player. It was the only game I was playing at the time and thats when I got hooked and found SA. My first win with SA was the Jimmy Kimmel Roadtrip just a few months into playing regularly.
