OK, as per my previous post on I haven't won a darn thing. Well sad to say I still aint won a damn thing. Not even the stinkin T-shirt from the Holiday-Inn Express instant win which you can play over and over and over again. Yet, all I get is SORRY, YOU'RE NOT AN INSTANT WINNER. TRY AGAIN. If I see another TRY AGAIN, OR COME BACK TOMORROW I THINK I'M GOING TO SHOOT THE COMPUTER SCREEN. This is all to frustrating. I try to remain positive, play at different times like people have recommended but nothing is working. I'm committed, dedicated and faithful to the sweeps. I'm speaking mainly about these INSTANT WINS. But the daily's and the weekly's and the monthly's aint no better. I have won a damn thing from them either. So I ask again, how are you people winning these things? What times? How long after playing sweeps did it take for you to win? I've been consistently sweeping for about a month now, but I joined sweepsadvantage about 3 weeks ago.

I mean I've been entering all kinds of crazy sweeps and nothing. NO, CONGRATULATIONS YOU'RE A WINNER. JUST SORRY, PLEASE TRY AGAIN TOMORROW. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!! Anybody else out there running into the problem of not winning like me? I'm on the verge of saying forget this and never enter a sweep again. But some of the prizes are really sweet to win, being that half of them I couldn't even afford to buy so my best bet is to try and win it. I'm feeling like im better off trying to buy then waiting on, congratulations you're a winner.

So i await that day to be a WINNER!!! WISH me LUCK and say a PRAYER for me a WIN I NEED IT.

Hang in there. I play at different times in the morning. Sometimes in the early morning if I cannot sleep; sometimes after dinner if I have a busy day.

I haven’t won a lot, but I did have good June (George Michael Tickets; Lots of chips; 2 movie tickets; a drink refrigerator; Richard Petty Driving Experience; EAS Myoplex® bar; 3 old books; a pair of Adidas® Response 16; Infineon race hat; and a Wish-Bone® Greenshopper™ bag.)

All my wins, but the concert tickets were from IWs. I have not been sweeping long enough to see results from the dailys.

I do work hard at it though – about four hours a day.
 
claim2fame - A good whine does help us to purge any negativity we may be carrying, so I do get the need to post your disappointment, but winning isn't a sure thing, especially right away.

It took me 4 - 6 months of daily entering {of 150+} to win - and that was when they gave out more prizes than they do now.

That's how I finally came to the conclusion that it was all about timing. I also noticed when I didn't just focus on myself {taking time posting to help others/adding sweeps} and then entering, I'd have better timing.

My first good win came about by voting for a fellow member on an unlimited - it was a PITA, so I was entering it 1x a day, but entered again to help her family & won a $100 GC.

Many people quit this hobby because they expect instant gratification {my mom lasted a week :laughing:} and are sometimes drawn back months later when they get a win from a daily they entered - lots of them run for months, and draw/notify/award winners long after the sweeps ends - so you could actually be a winner, you just don't know it yet!!! :laughing:

And just like in gambling, it's NOT personal - time it right, and it WILL happen!!! :headbang:
 
I love your posts, claim2fame :laughing:

I've only been playing the instants diligently for a little over a month now. It really is all about timing and the timing varies. Whatever you do don't give up!

:wave: Thanks for your support. I'm glad that you find humor in my frustration. I have to sit back and chuckle at it myself. But this is so darn hard. I guess because I've never really won any free prize before. I just want a taste of that excitement everyone else is getting HIGH off of. LOL!! But thanks for your support and words of encouragement. Stay tuned, more posts are to follow. :sunny:

I'm still hung up on this timing thing. On the weekends I play at all crazy hours. During the week i play at different times. Many people do expect instant gratification because alot of people have gotten instant results. But I have come to the conclusion that I am not one of those people. LOL! Thanks for your always ever-lasting words of encouragement.

I will be looking for your winning post!
:love: :wave: :love: :wave: :love: :wave: :love:​
 
The instants haven't been exactly been free flowing with the prizes if ya know what I mean. :laughing: Just settle down a bit and say to yourself I'm just gonna play and if I win something great If I don't I will try again tomorrow. That way you wont be as bummed when it doesn't say congratulations. As long as you are playing every day, enter a lot of sweeps and just being consistent the wins will come. Maybe not over night but it will happen.

This is a hobby. A hobby with benefits sure but still a hobby. Ya gotta have a good time doing it.
 
:wave: Don't forget sometimes there is a "surprise" win that may come your way too! Sometimes you don't always get notified of a win and it just "shows up" one day. I finally got my sister to start sweeping last year after I won a "42 flat screen tv, and an Xbox 360 from Doritos! She gets discouraged too but I always remind her to never give up cause you never know when it could happen to you!

Good luck! :headbang:

Hey I ve recently had a not so lucky streak lately myself, but the debate goes on and on, I have definitely won more without the use of automated programs like roboform. hope this helps and best of luck!
 
Get back to subway and win those chips! and what about the wallpaper from starburst????and EAS for the myoplex bar???? hey at least it's a winning screen! How about the pepsi old school/new school one? I actually won a pair of sneakers from that one. I almost fell off the chair!
Good luck! Keep trying!
:headbang: :cheers:
 
A lot of the time it takes several months to start getting wins and notifications for the daily, one time only, weekly, etc. If you keep up with them, in a month or two you should start winning!! The first few months are the slowest.
 
Subway told me, SORRY TRY AGAIN TOMORROW. What link are you using? Give it to me? I didn't know about the starburst or myoplex ones however. I guess I'll try to find them and see what i get. And congrats to you for winning the shoes. WOW!! Have you actually received them too?
 
Invest in Roboform Pro and up the number of sweeps you are entering. I've been using Roboform since it came out in 1999. Realistically, you can't do any serious sweeping without it. I can't even remember a time that I got frustrated with sweeping! :scratch: :headbang: FYI, Roboform is a form-filling aid, not automated.
 
OK alot of you have been recommending for me to use Robo Form filling. I neglected to mentioned that I am using it. So i await the many wins that hopefully come soon. Thanks everyone for your support.
 
Roborm (free version) or Roboform Pro (paid version)? Roboform Pro has more/better features than the free version. You may also want to check under computer help in the forum and browse through the Roboform help threads. I've found that most people aren't using it the way it was meant to be used for sweepstakes. I can enter over 700 daily's in about 3 1/2 hours with Roboform Pro.
