I had over 365 messages in spam, so I did an email search for "Congratulations!," so I could just empty the spam without looking at every single thing! Wow! This was in the TRASH! I deleted it this morning! Shame on me!

Congratulations Susan!

You are one of our First Reads lucky winners! You will soon receive a Free copy of The Genius in All of Us in the mail. Looking forward to the read! This is my 18th win of 2011!

Good job, Suz! The Goodreads giveaways are a daily "must" for me when entering sweeps and the odds of winning are actually quite good. Plus it's a treat to read a book months before it goes on the market.

I deleted a $50 concert cash before! I was so pissed! LOL. I never got an email back! It was in my spam so when I deleted it on accident, it was gone!

Congrats on your win, and I'm glad you found it! :sunny:
 
LuvMyBallerina! Awww! So sorry you deleted a win that was in your spam! We should make a list of words all winning emails have, and then do mail searches once every few days so we don't accidently delete something! I moved my Goodreads win from the TRASH to the INBOX immediately! It sucks if you delete something in SPAM because you can't ever get it back! Sigh!

Serious SPAM is one of the hazards of entering sweepstakes!!

However, there are more wins on the horizon for all of us!!

fikr0401, I agree! Odds are great on Goodreads! I enter "soon to expire," daily both on Facebook and Goodreads, plus every other sweepstakes I can find! I learned to be picky with Goodreads because you don't want to win a book you wouldn't like to read. Odds are, you will win the only book you really didn't want.....

Good luck, Everybody!
 
Thank you for the tip! I'm going to try it too before deleting. Congrats on the win!
