[Other] Contest Winners Alert: Pls Post Your Contest Wins Here

Since joining RFD - I've never won. (and I guess before joining RFD also)
=(

I started entering contests in 2002 as a joke with my sister. It was the Cadbury Contest (2002) where you took a picture of yourself with a Cadbury Egg and if you seen your picture posted, you had aboiut 24 hours (or 72, I forget) to reply and you would win $1000. I won that and shared it with my sister. That hooked me on contesting! I don't enter that many contests, and when I do, I make sure they are reputable companies so I don't get spam emails. So far I have been lucky! It takes me approx 15-20 minutes per day, in total, to enter all my daily contests. Some days I don't enter anything. Hit and Miss. I like the instant win contests best! I have won LOTS of things. This is just a very small example of stuff I have won. I have also won CD's, DVD's, MP3 Players, CD Players, Movie Tickets, Games etc.......

*After I won a few contests, I started keeping a list for my own reference of things won, the value and the date.


Here are some of the highlights of what I have won.......

-$1000 cash from Cadbury

Well then take up a full page Hoping they put it to a sticky for us to have a central place for it

my last big win was recently and it was $2500 cash from uthink surveys

total for the year is only about $3500

I haven't won a single thing from contests yet.

I was curious, how do you guys get contacted for wins? Is it by phone or by email, or snail mail?

So far...

Pepsi WinEveryHour 2006 Accessory Prize Pack

Ford Stay on the Edge 30GB Ipod

Subway Fresh Energy $50

Thank you mods for sticky!!!


Yaaa we got our own win section!!! hope we get it filled quickly

Congrats all

Eh since people are posting their lifetime wins I guess I'll put mine down since I started around the first pepsi xbox 360 contest (1.5 years ago I guess that was). I was stoked when I won that one, since my brother had already won a 360 from muchmusic and I stopped entering the contest, but a week later I checked my email during class and it said I had won (a redraw for sure). That's when I seriously started getting into contesting.

Now let's see if I remember it all.

Scaletrix Race Car set - Shoptvcanada (2005)

Xbox 360 - Pepsi wineveryhour (2005)

Xbox 360 - Muchmusic (2005) - Helped my brother win that one, they called his cell and I told him what to say to win, I still have the recording on my computer from the episode.

King Kong for PS2 - Don't remember the sponsor (2005)

Case of Brisk Iced Tea - Brisk (2006)

4 NFL hats - Snickers Instant Win contest (2006)

Gameboy Micro - Humpty Dumpty (2006)

UTStarcom PPC-6700 Cellphone - Microsoft (2006)

Nokia Cellphone - Sponsor? (2006)

Xbox 360 - Wineveryhour (2006)

World Trade Center DVD - Tribute.ca (2007)

DVD Prize Pack - Alliance Atlantis (2007)

If I remember more I'll edit this post.

No major wins (nothing over 600ish dollars). But I love winning electronics, the UTStarcom win was funny because I was out looking for a new cellphone when I got the call that I had won a phone, lol great timing there.

OK, I was asked to post even though it would take a lot of space
