ok usually when you get a check from a sweepstake for a large amount like 2,000 does it come from ups or regulaur mail. i would assume it would come thru ups because it would make more sense but i read some post on here about ppl recieving there affadavids and checks thru ups but i got my affadavid and congratulation letter thru regular mail so i was just wondering where its gonna come from. also my spsonsor says it should take 3-6 wks which isnt that long compared to some ppl having to wait 10-12 wks for some smaller prizes. she also said if its taking to long i could contact her bcuz newyork dosent inform her when they send the checks out. but i was just wondering most likely if they give you 3-6 wks would it come more earlier or later. i wanted to go out of town for thanksgiving but if its 6 wks it may not come untill thanksgiving. hmmmmmmm

Your prize, or any prize, could be sent by U.S. P.O., UPS, Fedex, etc. Only the sponsor/sender knows, unless they tell you in advance.

One thing you could do, since you already have a contact person, would be to politely ask her if she knows how the check will be sent, because you want to be on the look out for it.

When I won $10,000; the check came from FedEx.  This probably varies with each sweeps.  The sad part is that they rang my doorbell and left it on my steps with no signature.  Kind of scary, but luckily I heard the door bell.

omg they had to be scary thats 10,000 bucks lol. they had to have been lazy your always pose to get a signature. I seriously think this check will come fedex also. it just would make more sense since its a good amount of money that they would wanna make sure u get it. Im a at home mom and my fiancee is working alot now hes off on sundays and sometimes he gets home early if the weekdays are slow but ill be home most of the time so im defintley gnna be on the look out for it next mth around first wk of nov untill the last wk. they said 3-6 wks it might come early right around 3 wks im hoping bcuz we wanna go out of townfor thanksgiving. if it comes around 4-6 wks id be happt to i just am anticipating it so much i need a new camera to take pics of my 19 and 4 mth old my old one broke, i need to buy them some new winter clothes, and i need to buy my 4 mth old a new crib since hes growin out of the bassionat. we have been hit with alot of bills lately and now that my hubby is workin more we will be ok but we need to save money so this was an answer from god. All i kno is im happy it will  arrive around the holiday time before thanksgiving and xmas that way ill have extra money to buy them xmas gifts and get myself some new clothes since i lost alot of baby weight and gettin smaller everyday. also would like to get a treadmill might have to wait on that thou.

I was pleasantly surprised, as my check came in a week!  Even the lady from the fulfillment company was amazed that I received it that fast.

Congrats on a great win!  When I won $500 dollars last year it came Federal Express and I had to sign for it.  I would call them and see if they could let you know when they send the check.
