I also won but I won earbuds. I also put 200 but the real answer is 5. I sent Samantha a second e-mail. Hopefully they will accept both answers as some contests don't use bedmas.

Math is math, they can't unilaterally decide not to use BEDMAS. If their answer is incorrect, just tell them why.

I won a contest from an American company a few years ago - before giving me the STQ she asked if I was familiar with BEDMAS, since I was in Canada, and that would make the correct answer different than if I was in the U.S.

There's no such thing as "American Math" and "Canadian Math".

"Dear Entrant: CONGRATULATIONS! We have exciting news for you! Your entry in the Panasonic Gold Rush Sweepstakes has been selected as a potential winner! It is our pleasure to inform you that you have won: A 512MB SD Card"
Yay just wanted to share this one... my second win in three weeks, after a 2.5 year absence from contesting. I can see why contesting is so addictive, you feel so good when you win, no matter how small or big the prize is.
Good luck to my fellow RFDers

I've also seen it referred-to as "PEDMAS".
What does the "O" stand for? I'm trying to think of a synonym for "Exponent" that starts with an "O" ....

Just got a call from The Source in Hamilton. They had a grand re-opening 3 weeks ago and you had to go into the store to fill in a ballot to win and I was the winner.
Toshiba 61" 3D TV, 3D Blu-Ray player and 2 pairs of glasses.
I won't be able to get it for 6-8 weeks, but I'm pumped!
My first big win after almost 4 years of contesting, and I didn't even have to call on Willow!
Excellent Win!!!!! Major congrats.
