    One and done?

    I won a recipe for grilled pork chops from the Pork Chop Drop contest. Rules say one instant win, so I guess that's it. I think I could have grilled pork chops by myself without a recipe, but at least the little game was kind of fun. I also won a book from Goodreads...first win from them for a...

    My third win...don't laugh!

    My third win this MONTH is A Circle of Shadows from BookTrib. The second win was A Curious Man from Book Trib. Those two books plus some star shaped sticky notes are the sum and total for June. So thankful for BookTrib! Obviously, June was not very lucky for me so I really appreciate the...

    sticky stars

    I won some star-shaped sticky notes from the PostIt/Scotch contest. That's good, because I'm almost out of the 5000 PostIt packet I purchased at Costco years ago.

    BookTrib win

    I received the book I won from BookTrib...a Detective story called "Original Skin" by David Mark. I haven't read this author before and I'm looking forward to it. I have about 10 authors that are my favorites but I need some new ones. This is Mr. Mark's second novel and I've put it next on my...

    First Prize with a Kicker...

    I won first prize in the Reeses March Madness contest...$100 gift code for the NCAA store. This is my biggest win in the three+ years I have been sweeping. As I type this, I'm waiting for my husband to come and tell me what he wants so I can use the code before it disappears or something...

    BookTrib win

    I received a copy of "LEE MARVIN...Point Blank" from BookTrib. I'm thankful for books and other small wins that keep me trying. However, I refuse to give access to my facebook friends info, so I may be forced to retire. A large percentage of new sweeps are requiring this in order to enter, so...

    Well Rats...

    Score 1- for not paying attention. I just won a $20 gift card to Winn Dixie from the Frito-Lay sweeps. I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA...DUH! I couldn't get it even if I could use it as the form to fill out to receive it has a drop-down state entry with no CA on it...of course. Maybe it IS time to wrap...

    Family Time Win

    I won the Family Time Mother's Day Hunt Sweepstakes today. These take a lot of time to "hunt" but, today, it finally paid off. The prize is supposed to be a floral bouquet or a box of candy. Either would be a nice spirit's lift for me. Thanks Family Time and SA...

    Facebook access

    So many of the new contests are requesting permission to access information from our Facebook page. I really don't know how Facebook works, but I do know I wouldn't have any friends if I allowed advertisers to have their information. Can these sponsors get email info and/or other specific info...

    Pretty thin winnings this year..

    I won a book, "Targets of Revenge" from Book Trib, I think. I also received a cute little cloth Easter "basket" from Pottery Barn Kids. Very sweet. Thanks Book Trib and PBK and, of course, the sponsors and SA.

    Twix win

    I won a candy bar, I think. It showed two but I think it's a coupon for one. Boy, has this year been slow for me. I guess I'll have to drown my sorrows in a candy bar...in 10 weeks!

    $5 for my buddy Amazon.

    I won a $5 Amazon code number from the Bausch and Lomb (?) contest. Was supposed to be a movie ticket, but it's OK as I would have had to give it away. I don't go out to movies anymore. An extra $5 for my good friend Amazon is OK with me!

    Received a book today from The Penguin Group...THE BOY IN THE SNOW, Viking. I remember this as an old Book Trib contest but I think this was from a recent contest...The Penguin Group, I guess. Anyway, I've won so many books the last month or so. This is my favorite kind of win...a surprise...

    Today, I won a $50.00 GC from Shell on the Road Fan, yippee, a $15.00 pre-paid Visa from Visa Know your Numbers game, and I received a book from BookTrib...INTERCEPT. I have also won several other books recently, including CHRISTMAS ON MIMOSA LANE from Anne DeStefano. What a great morning :D

    Little wins are fun, too

    This morning, I won a $10.00 Visa card from the CA Lottery. I was so shocked to see the TREE come up, I just stared at it, not knowing what to do. It took a long time to change to the WIN notice and I thought it wasn't going to acknowledge it. Thanks CA Lottery and SA...THAT woke me up.
