My 1st winnings came from the online game AOL Goldrush(Sept 2006). I didn't know about this site at the time. I won three gold coins valued at $650 each. This got me started entering sweeps and found this site and haven't looked back since. Almost everyone, including me, get in lulls and quits entering for a while or just takes a break. I actually think its good to take a break every now and then. BUT You have to keep entering and you will win a grand prize eventually. The grand prize could be $1,000 gift card or $85,000 boat/truck. The more you enter the better your chances, its a numbers thing. There is no luck, there is I believe a God part to it sometimes. I keep at it daily from the gold coin wins until I won the Grand Prize ESPN sweeps(Dec. 07) that got me into the $10K club. I still try to enter daily. I have won several small things between. So don't give up, keep at it and you will win things.
