Have You Ever Won Anything In Sweepstakes Or Contests? Posted: 11-12-07 13:51pm
I heard there is new sweepstakes where you
can win $50,000 or 6 month supply of
pampers just by watching As the World
Turns or Guiding Light and answer simple
questions pgpcollegeeducation.com I never
knew anybody who ever won or participated
in a sweepstake but I think I will try
this one. Have you ever won anything?

Yeah but you most likely won't. The odds
are too high. I've played the lotto so
many times and it is just a big waste of
money.
Powerball especially.

Ha ha ha! Yeah they are but sometimes it's
fun just to dream! We know of a guy about
30 miles away that won $100,000 from the
powerball. But not us we don't seem to be
lucky so we don't really buy tickets very
often. We alway get scratch tickets at
christmas time, it has become a tradition
to scratch tickets on Christmas Eve! That
is fun. The most anyone has won in $20 I
think

I love the scratch tickets. They can be
addicting though.
What I do is pick my favorite number and
Anthony will go get the corresponding
ticket and scratch it away. We've been
lucky to break even just about every time
(with the exceptional $20 winner). It's
fun.
Hmm... Maybe I'll put some scratch offs in
our stockings? That sounded like a good
idea.

lol I'm for scratch tickets.
Although, I'm not very lucky so I usually
buy three dollars of tickets and hand them
over to my lucky sister. Then we just play
off winning or I cave and get another 2
dollar ticket.
Lotto just isn't as fun unless you're
doing bingo or something-- or you win.

I won 500 dollars at our school's after
prom party (which was the grand prize).
That was probably the best thing I've ever
won.

LOL the bigmac one is funny!!!!
Yeah we love doing the stocking stuffers.
It's great for the older people since we
have 2 smaller kids so we have to make it
look like Santa thought of us too! We also
give them with smaller gifts like tins or
a purse or a gift card. Just makes that
small gift a little more fun!
