In anticipation of winning my first [non-instant and/or big win], I just thought it would be nice if we started a Winner's Circle thread for people who have their first "milestone" wins, like first win, first instant win, first grand prize win, etc. :D I look forward to many people posting their first milestone wins here, including myself! :D
Happy Sweeping, and Good Luck!!!! :D :D :D :D

Just a clarification... This isn't actually a thread about my first win, rather other people's first wins and milestone wins, like first instant win, first non-instant, grand prize win, etc. I haven't won anything but about 50 small instant win prizes. I will post on this thread when I win something other than instants, because I have not yet. I just saw a lot of threads about people's first wins (altogether), and just thought we could post some in one big thread. :D

I'll start it off & post Bobby's first GP win -
Time Warner/Roadrunner - Power Of You Sweepstakes - he won the $1,000 Time Warner Cable Reward Visa card!!! :shock:
He just faxed the affie today 8)
It was funny - at first we weren't sure WHICH one won, since they are BOTH Roberts but I called them & confirmed it - super nice people there at don jagoda associates inc!!!
He's hoping it's for any VISA purchase since the laptop died & he's wanting a new one!!! :wink:

Hoping for that big win... How long did it take you to win your first "big" win?

Update - Bobbys Time Warner/Roadrunner - Power Of You Sweepstakes - $1,000 Time Warner Cable Reward Visa card came today!!! YAY!!! 8) So I logged into mine ($50 win from Warner Bros in 2005) because it reminded me I had it & found someone STOLE my money - TWICE!!! :shock: :twisted: On the 15th of June & July, they took... 99 cents. Yep. 99 cents x 2. :P So I called the 800 #, and she had NO record of that account :? So she couldn't explain the theft BUT... she asked why we never activated/used the account she DID see we had that was for $50! :shock: :?: :?: :?: Turns out there was $21.00 in inactivity charges on it, & it would be $6.95 to send a new card - but since I told her I never even knew it existed, she waived the fees & is mailing me out a new one ASAP!!! How cool is that??? It was from AOL & a bunch of other sponsors, so I don't know what sweeps it's from - another mystery win :P Too cool - the IW's have been igging me for over a week ( I know - waaaah :P ) but I usually win something every 3 - 4 days, like a Crunch bar coupon, etc, and was thinking I lost my timing Does this take the cake for longest period for notification on an IW? 13 months!!! :P Gotta go shopping & get the RAV smog checked - I hope I have time to enter my sweeps later - I was so busy adding sweeps & clipping coupons, then got sidetracked by DHL, that I haven't had the time yet!!! :shock: MANY happy winners post while I'm gone & win all the prizes so I can skip entering today, OK??? :wink:

My first odd entry win was from the Heineken Grammy all access sweep. I was going through the sweeps that expired that day, and came across it. It was just in time, as the Grammy awards were starting soon on TV. I was able to answer the triva questions, and solve the puzzles to win a Creative Labs MP3 player. I didn't actually know I had won one until UPS delivered one. :lol: This was because they only gave them to the first 100 correct responders, and I was not informed that evening if I was one of the first 100.

Congratulations to vicing1966 for the win from the odd catagory. I don't know IF I've ever heard anyone EVER mention a win from them before. Just wonderful news.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Congratulations also to hitthegroundboys!! You did VERY well this last week and I'm so happy for you too. Just keep up the good fun work that makes us all smile uncontrollably from time to time.

:D Yesterday was the first I ever won in my life and I am 45 so I was extremely happy. Even if it was $10, and my son says what can you do with $10, I told him $10 is $10 that I didn't have before. I just LOVE this sweepstakes thing. It occupies an otherwise long and boring day for me. I congratulate all the winners and hope to hear more from everyone. Rhonda

Got my first win today!
(Actually, I've received two so far today!)
I won a $10 gift card to Lowes through the GMAC instant win game and a "Kryptonite" toy through the Quaker Oats Find Superman instant win game.
Lucky day!
