So far I have won a $15.00 Best Buy gift card from Mycokerewards and a 3 month POGO membership from the Subway Scrabble game. Are there others similar to these that are easy to win? Others that you have had success with?

 If you like Salsa, Picante or Mexican Cheese Sauce go for the Pace Instant win. My cupboard is getting full from all the coupons I have cashed in. We eat alot of Mexican food here so they are welcome wins.

I have very bad luck with instant wins. I rarely win one. I have stopped entering any unless the grand prize is worth the effort. I have tried entering at all times of the day and the middle of the night and still no wins. It was beginning to get me down, all those "I'm sorry, you did not win" notices. If you are lucky at instant wins then play them a lot. Some people do very well with them.  |

I have won 4 times in different coke instant wins. I have also won 4 general mills $5 checks and 3 Pace Picante sauce. These all seem easy to win. Love these sweeps.

I stink at the instants. I've change my mindset to think of them as daily entries and enter them for a grand prize I would want.

I enter all sweeps that way - enter & forget it!!!  I've won the GP from an IW I couldn't hit on {diamond watch} and got an IW prize on a 2nd chance after the winner either didn't respond/was DQ'ed {my FAVE win - the DELL laptop I'm on} so I know NOT hitting doesn't mean you WON'T win!!! |

cheapedy - the 1's already listed {PACE/general mills} seem to have the most prizes, so that does up your chances, but in 5+ years, I've lost track of how many "gimmes" {LOTS of small prizes} where I couldn't win - while I'd hit on the 1's with very few prizes!!!  |

I've won a bunch of times on the Pace instant . 2 times so far on the cheerios. but, the most i've ever won from was the V8 Splash one a couple of years ago. I won 4 Harlem Globetrotter tickets. 4 teeshirts. and a basketball net with basketball.
also the Gatorade one 2 years ago. i won 3 sets- a towel- a basketball- waterbottle - and $45 dollar Sports authority gift card. plus maybe 9 basketball posters. that was a great one.
Instants can be great if they are giving away alot of prizes at once. if not, then the wins are hard.

I don't know if any instant wins are easier to win than others...I was lucky twice and won a $25 EXXON gas card and a coupon for a 3lb bag of cat food! But my luck with these wins is nothing to get excited about so I don't...I enter them, go on with the other sweeps and forget about seeing, "SORRY, YOU DID NOT WIN" on the sites.
