    Wendy's instant win

    I won one of the 6,000 football video games they are awarding as a fourth (I think) prize.  I'm hoping I can play it on the Wii I won last month!  I know we had to chose our game format at the beginning, but I don't remember for sure if Wii was a choice. 

    Lots of people are posting their wins in the comments for the sweeps, but I don't know if they are posting here in the Forum, too.

    I had another instant win a few days ago of a $25 gift card to target.com.  Again, it was in a sweeps that has a lot of prizes, but that doesn't make the win any less thrilling to me!

    Best 10/2009 win: 47inch LCD 1080p HDTV including a TV stand, Nintendo Wii and two games (1 of 10 Grand Prizes)
    Best 11/2009 win: Kindle (1 of 7 Grand Prizes)
    Best 12/2009 win: $5 Home Depot gift card (1 of 10,500 fourth prizes)
    Best 1/2010 wins: Loacker bag with 8 mugs (1 of 1000)--from my very first sweeping entry in the New Year!
    ................................. Philips Prestigo Universal Remote Control (1 of 5 remotes out of 50 second place prizes)
    ................................. $5 check from Cheerios (now a total of 4 out of 40,608) actual money--woo!
    Best 2/2010 win: stainless steel tongs, $2.66

    Re: Wendy's instant win

    CONGRATS! I don't think Wii was an option, but I know there are some games that are compatable with the Wii even though they aren't made for that system-so that's worth checking into. I'm glad to see people win on this one, because it frustrates the heck out of me to lose 5 times every day!

    Re: Wendy's instant win

    Congrats!  Let the game begin.  If Wii was not an option maybe you can offer to trade for football video game that is compatable.

    Depending upon their time limitations, many post their wins in both places.

    Enjoy shopping at target.  Nice win with Christmas in the near future.

    Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

    Re: Wendy's instant win

     Thanks, everyone!  I thought they did have a different Nintendo platform and I picked that on the possibility it would be compatible, so we'll see!

     Chuck, if it's not compatible, I don't know if I'd be able to exchange it anywhere, although I would check into that possibility.  When I won an LG phone in plain black, none of the Sprint (I think it's Sprint) stores would exchange it for the engraved purple phone.  Same phone, same price, just a different cover.  I checked at several different locations and I always got the same answer, that they couldn't exchange it because of that bar code thing.  Everyone was very nice in trying to assist me, but supposedly their inventory system didn't allow for an exchange since the phone I had wasn't from a purchase.  So that was an interesting learning experience.

    I would still try it again just to make sure that's the way that always turns out.  Plus, it might be easier to get a store credit for a format switch if I turned in a perfect, unopened game during the day-after-Christmas exchange fandango.  I would still be prepared for Walmart to say, Sorry, No, though.

    Re: Wendy's instant win

     Stick out tongue lol, well you both have names that start with a "c" and a car for your avatar.... Funny mistake, though!  Did make me giggle. There is no sensible excuse for it.  My own avatar is a waterfall.  It flows on some sites. 

    I logged back in tonight to say I just won one of the 1,000 bags of Twix candy.  Three instants--that's a real streak of luck by my standards.  Big Smile
