:smt009 Okay, first off, Congratulations to all the winners of great prizes! Seriously, I am happy for you all and there seems to be a lot lately and that is wonderful....but I am really getting discouraged -- I started sweeping daily in late October after winning a TV in the Doritos High Def sweeps and that was a great prize, but since that time I have won a total of 2 other prizes from the daily entries and I enter a ton of dailies. Close to 150 daily entries every day. Not to mention the one time entries (never have won any of those). I rarely miss a day of sweeping. 2 hours at least a day. And nothing. Instant wins have been okay, but only 4 or 5 that were really really worth anything. It seems like a lot of people win a lot of the dailies and I love to read when people start winning from a sweep with a lot of prizes and I get hopeful, but the prizes never seem to come my way. Okay, I know the answer, quite whinning and just keep entering and forget about it, but I wanna be a winner too!!! (pouting....) -- I'm done now. Thanks for listening.

Im sorry ya havent been winning. It makes it soooo hard to keep doing this. However, ya gotta keep telling yourself that you wont win anything if you dont enter. Dont give up. You have to be persistent. You gotta keep pluging away at It. Up until these last couple of weeks I had never won a daily, they were instants,unlimited or one entry. So, keep trying. I hope you win something great very soon. I will keep my fingers crossed for ya. although you dont really need it cause you are gunna win. right? right!!!! :smt003

We all get discouraged sometimes. For some reason once you whine about it the wins start coming again. Those dailys and one timers are very difficult to win. So just hang in there the wins will come.

Don't worry hang in there, and keep entering. I find that the wins come in wierd times. Like you will go a week, or a month without winning, and then all of a sudden you win a bunch. I haven't won anything in a week, except for that pack of gum :smt009
Just keep sweeping, and something good will come along.

There, there....you will start winning. I went through a dry spell recently and then started winning. It is so discouraging though - I know just how you feel. Try to enter those dailies that have lots of prizes - your odds will be better. I'm sending good luck your way!

I know how you feel everyone is doing great I feel like nothing here but I am still going to give it my all. Keep your chin up and stay positive and focused. :smt003

definitely! You can NOT give up! There are times I will go months without winning anything. and don't give up on the instants. my biggest wins have come from there. and don't give up on the one-time entries. you only have to enter them one time.
there are dailies that i enter everyday and don't win (like the Disney ones! I'm hoping to hit one someday. I thought for sure I would win something in the Pirates of the Carribean one, but I didn't win. and I entered everyday.)
If it gets too frustrating. take a day or two or even a week off of entering any contest. don't allow yourself to get burnt out. it's a hobby!
you will win.
also , look into your local area contests. go thru all the local papers , they run contests. radio stations. tv stations, etc. your chances will be much higher in winning.

Good Luck and don't give up. I've got my fingers crossed for you!

jsanders98 - I agree completely with everything everyone has posted - get all that negativity out of you so you can go on and win again!!! :smt004

And don't forget - if you don't believe you can win, and don't enter, you CAN'T win!!!

So... (all together now :smt002 ) Enter and FORGET IT, move on to the next one...

Well, you know the drill :smt003

I thought it was just me not winning much. I went for 2 months without winning and then I won several instant wins. They weren't much but a win is a win in my book.

Thank you everyone for the encouragement! I really do know that I just have to keep playing. Just sometimes... well, we all know. Oh and to someone who asked, I enter over a hundred dailies and over a hundred instants everyday. It isn't from lack of trying! I do enjoy it to. It gives me something to look forward to everyday. I love the instants. And everything is free!!! People don't believe me when I do tell them I win. Which is great. Who needs more competition - right! Anyhow, thank you. I have been much luckier with radio wins lately. In May I won $325 from 3 different stations and this month I won 4 Dancing with the Stars tickets. So I am not a total loser, just a whiner!! Thanks again everyone!

Just don't give up and stay determined. I know it's not easy for everyone, timewise; but, just remember, the more you enter, the more you will win. It does take some work, but persistence and determination pay off; and the payoffs make it all worthwhile.
