Maybe something decent every couple of months averaged out... dry spells notwithstanding. The last really good win I had tho was (I think) Dec 2015 and you always hope that isn't the new normal. lol My best win so far was a $3,000 check from Parents' Magazine. Just $1 away from the Hall of Fame thread on that one. Haha!

I average about 1 small win a month at this point. And 1 bigger win per year. Small is something worth between $15 and $75 but for some reason it's usually $25. And big could be any where from a tablet to a 4 night hotel stay at a very nice place. I only enter for myself, and I spend about 2-3 hours a day doing it. When I first started it was 4 a month and something big maybe 4 times a year but it is a lot slower the last couple years for me.
Argh, I accidentally deleted my reply.
Shorter version, I have about 200 daily giveaways I enter, all different types, $10-$500 range, entry period from a few days to two months. I probably spend an hour in the morning running through my existing list and another hour or so later in the day or evening hunting for new things.
I used to win a couple of times a week, my biggest being a kitchen supply package worth $300, most others around $25. I haven't won a thing for the last month and there were at least two giveaways that had low entries that I was tracking where I had more than half of them that I lost. Argh!

It varies month to month for me. If I count instant wins when there are games going on that award lots of winners, then I can win 20+ times a month. When there isn't any of those multiple time winners instant wins, my monthly wins will probably be around 10-12ish. Just keep at it!
cami1125 - lately it's been slow but I just keep reminding myself:
The Sweeper's Credo:
Enter and forget it.
Always be happy for those who win - even when they win "your" prize - and be positive you will win.
Sweeping is a hobby that is all about timing. Especially for those elusive instants! IF you enter at the exact right moment, you will win.
If not? Sad to say you won't. But I assure you - it's nothing personal, and those who win a lot don't have any "secrets" - they are just consistent, persistent, and patient.
I really believe that if you go into it thinking you can't win, well, you'll MAKE yourself right so often you'll start believing it!!!
I truly do believe you have to have a positive attitude - don't get hung up on what others are doing - just focus on entering, then move on to something else - like posting so we can get to know you!!!
So hang in there - and enter, enter, enter - and you'll be posting a win before you know it!!! And remember - every day brings new opportunities to win!!!
