a new subtopic (is that even a word). Let's call it the Whiner's wall. It should go under Winner's Circle because it seems to work. Everytime someone writes about how they start to whine about not winning then they win something good. I want to try it and I think everyone else should too. OK here goes.... Where or where is my big win. The only thing I've seemed to win lately is a bag of candy. No more Coke wins, no Sprite $s, I have played Marlboro for my husband EVERYDAY and he has not won a thing, have not won any Cheerios $. Thousands of entries and never a trip or anything close. So there it is my whine. Let's see if it helps...  |

 All I wanted was to win a Honeymoon for my Husband and I! I played the sweeps diligently for a year and nothing ever happened for me. We are married now - but I would still like to win a nice vacation! Now that the wedding dust has settled, I am back to sweeping and have won nothing so far!

I'd like to whine a little also. Things have been so bad I'm thinking about sending myself something just to cheer myself up. I won a $100 gift card to Zaxby's and that's my last big?? win. IF I ever won anything truly big they would have to come to the hospital to give it to me cause I would surely have Fred Sanford's big one from the shock.
BUT when I win something, even a pen I'm thrilled so I'll keep entering.
That's my whine now I'm ready to win something. chuckle

I can't believe some of the luck other's have had with coke and Marlboro. I have been entering for my husband almost every day and all he has won is a money clip. Although I don't enter on days that we couldn't or wouldn't use the prize. Ok, I'm done whining for now!!! LOL

you know, that has been true for me, I've thought the same thing many times. Even though I'm happy for the others I start wondering why don't I win anything? And then it seems like I'll win something and it's something pretty good. It's funny how that works. Always hang in there.

If whining can make someone a winner, I have a big win in my future! I feel awful physically, I hate my job, and I can't keep up with all the bills. Things are just so depressing right now that a win would cheer me up like you wouldn't believe. It doesn't have to be a big win; any win at all will do. Although, if it's a cash win, the bigger the better.  Monday is my birthday and I don't have anything planned. A win sure would perk me up! |

I am going to join you all and whine to. For those of you complaining about hating your jobs, please be happy you have one.
I lost my job after being there 23 yrs and its tough trying to find another. So everyone lets have a good day and keep sweeping. Lets keep a positive outlook about winning.

:cry:I'm on such a long dry spell - I've started coughing dust! I could whine so much, my last name could be cellar (wawawa). Every time I feel blue about it, I tell myself someone must have needed it more and that all these loosing makes me that much closer to a win. |

Could I GET a pound of eight o'clock coffee? Not asking for a lot here, just a pound of stinking coffee. Spun that wheel a zillion times this summer.....I'm just sayin'
And what's up with Kasey? Could he beat Richard Petty ONCE? Loser.
Just drivin' my BMW (Bit##, Moan & Whine) into the whiner's wall

I don't usually even most my wins because they aren't worth bragging about and this year has been the worst by far! I am hoping that whining will do the trick!

Looks like your whiners wall has the magic touch. I haven't won any big prizes yet (over $500), have been sweeping for over a year. I am so amazed at the folks who win a car on their first sweepstakes entry. I guess when God is ready for it to happen I will get my big prize, so keep on sweepin'

Add my whine to the wall too! The best I have done recently is a Blackberry application that I can't use because I am still trying to win a Blackberry. A coupon here and there for candy, some of which can't be claimed as wins because of the Freebie Fridays. I have won so many Rascal Flatts downloads and the limit is 2, feels like a total waste. A trip, some money, anything over $250 would be a huge rain storm in the dry spell that is my sweeping right now. So, now that we have all this whine, who has the cheese and crackers? |

add me to the list! I've been sweeping for quite sometime. i've won a few things here and there. nothing over a $100. i spend atleast 8 hours a day, entering sweeps! not kidding. my hubby works and still supports me in sweeping but, now i'm thinking that he feels sorry for me. lol i want to, so bad, just to win something like a trip or money! he has given me everything. a new life, a new everything! i was working, going to school, and here comes my prince! i rescue animals. actually, today, i took in a stray cat. she's at the vet getting checked out. she's also getting fixed. i pick her up tomorrow.  I haven't named her yet. Hubby says Hali, is a nice name. She's not the prettiest cat by far, in the community but, God makes all creatures beautiful, in his eyes. Maybe, I'll will win one day.

It took me 6+ months to start winning, then I was winning a lot {mostly small stuff} for about a year & then it came to an abrupt halt!!! Well, 7 WEEKS later, I won an awesome prize {$750 digital camera} YAY!!! To me, it was totally worth the wait!!!  Since then, I've had awesome days/weeks/months of winning, but it's cyclical - so I don't sweat it {OK - maybe a little, lol  } because I know it CAN happen, as long as I enter!!! |

OK. Since I started this wall my winning has picked up 'a little'. Nothing big yet but I'll keep my fingers crossed. Yesterday my daughter got notice of a win in the Cartoon Network sweep: a Star Wars Lightsaber (@$22) and this morning on the radio I was trying for a gift certificate for a set of tires (my husband needs tires and his bday is next week). Didn't win those but got one of the 'free oil change' gc's. So that is something. And then my lottery ticket this morning was a 'free' ticket. So maybe I am on to something.
