The page where they are going to announce the winners is not live yet https://www.promowinners.com/primedaysweepstakesCA
No, it's Canada only.

There is a US version of the same contest as well, but the prizes are different and not shared between the two countries.

Canada rules (open only to Canadians)
https://www.primedaysweepstakes.ca/terms
Total prize value: $1,656,000.00.

USA rules (open only to Americans)
https://www.primedaysweepstakes.com/terms
Total prize value: $11,687,500.
Aside from only gift cards, like in our Canadian contest, the USA contest also has trip prizes as well.

Do you usually need to stay on the mailing lists when contests require them? Or you can subscribe for the contest then unsub?

Ughhh, some contest I entered (who knows which) has sold my email address and now I'm getting hundreds of emails a day from various ad bots. And I have to go through them all because it's my contesting email and what if I miss a win? Blocking as I go but it's not making a dent.

Anyone else excited for them to start annoying the winners? So many gift card prizes. I bet there will be plenty of RFD winners.
Wonder if anyone here will be lucky enough to score one of the 30 $5000 gift cards.
From the rules:

The Sweepstakes drawings will be conducted by the Administrator, within ten (10) working days of the end of the Sweepstakes.

It's a real mix. Byte Smile Advisors, Pretty Litter Cat Litter, Walk in Tubs for Seniors, Green Light Card, Lending For Bad Credit, Solar Bright Flood Light, Modernize Roofing, Annuities.com, US Concealed Online, Toxic Water Rights, Camp LeJune Suit, CPAP Lawsuit Claims, it goes on and on (there are lots more). Really flooding my inbox. Not even one of these companies is remotely relevant to my life and all are random letter made up type return addresses (like droeltip.c*m, pessmoder.c*m, haradbunde.c*m)

That sucks! :(

I'm definitely getting a LOT all the time (and on stat holidays and retail hot times it's real bad) but those don't look familiar. I must have narrowly escaped it.

I haven't seen anyone say they've won in any groups I'm in, but since basically all purchases made in-store count as long as you scan the rewards card, there are probably an enormous amount of entries each day.

Damm, I forgot about the purchase entries. Pretty much, be impossible to win with all those entries.

Anyone get this email supposedly from Linen Chest saying you are a "daily winner" and the info on your $100 e-gift card can be found below - congratulations and there is a button to click (which I have not done so) --- I don't think it's legit.....anyone else got this email?

Yes I got it.

I looked at the email headers to see where it actually came from. It shows it did originate from Linen Chest.
I believe they sent it to everyone in error. As the link in the email doesn't even do anything.

I am predicting them sending out another email in the near future apologizing for the mistake.

I got that email and then another one with "Sorry"......
Due to a system error, one of our test emails for an upcoming contest was sent to you by mistake.

In this email, it should have read that you have been automatically entered in to our Daily $100 Gift Card contest. As a valued email subscriber we want you to always be the first to have an opportunity at our exciting prizes and giveaways.

A new winner will be announced daily for the next 7 days until July 19th.



We again apologize sincerely for this error and thank you for your loyalty.



Sincerely,
The Linen Chest Team

According to the rules: "The Sweepstakes drawings will be conducted by the Administrator, within ten (10) working days of the end of the Sweepstakes."

The contest ended on July 11th so 10 business days would be Monday, July 25th. Hopefully we'll see a lot of RFD winners on here!

Has anyone else received winning emails from the Prime Day Sweepstakes? It comes from noreply@primedaysweepstakes.ca? I was skeptical when I got one saying I won $250 and to claim it through the contest website portal, but it connects with my Amazon account and has the amount of entries that correspond with the amount I spent on small business, so seems legit. I filled it all out to claim and have since received two more emails telling me I won $100 and $50 prizes as well (you can win once per prize tier per the rules) but now feels fishy, too good to be true! Anyone else?!

Check the contest winners thread. 3-4 other people have also won multiple gift cards. One person winning $650 in total. It's legit.

I am still hoping for an email from them since I literally maxed out at 1500 entries, but doesn't look likely. Congrats though!

I really hope this isn’t a glitch because I won $400 ($250+$50+$100)

I entered from a banner on Amazon’s own website, so that should confirm it’s legitimacy. I won the $650, the prize confirmation had a skill testing question with 1 minute to answer. It was the same question for all 3 gift cards. It then said once things were ‘confirmed’ the amount would be added to my Amazon account. No idea how long that will take though. Hopefully not long so everyone can relax that it’s legit.
