Running a sweepstakes and contest website with thousands of daily users has it's challenges just like any other job. Some days everything seems to go wrong. But some days in the midst of the problems we get some great member feedback. Today I received an email from a member that wanted to thank us for site site.<\/p>\n

Seems this member had a really rough year and both her and her husband were out of work. They started entering sweepstakes in the hopes of winning<\/a> something big.\u00a0 Well I guess they had really good luck.\u00a0 They told me that they won several thousands of dollars in cash and several other prizes<\/a>. This really helped things for them during that rough time.<\/p>\n

It's really good to hear stories like this and it keeps all of us at SA motivated to keep the sweepstakes<\/a> and contests<\/a> coming! So when you are down on your luck and entering sweepstakes<\/a> just keep at it. Who knows maybe you too will have some good fortune with a big sweepstakes<\/a> win!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
