On January 15, 2008 I was a winner in The Alaska Airlines 75 and Sunny Sweepstakes. I won a $1,600 USD credit to book a vacation for two (2) on Alaska Airlines or Horizon Well, after the confirming paperwork (affidavits), I can report that I have finalized my trip with the agency. I and my hubby will be going to Seattle, WA. We are leaving 11/7/2008 and return on 11/10/2008. We are staying at the Edgewater Hotel - it is on the waters of Peuget Sound) and we will have a room overlooking the water.
Fed Ex came today and delivered a Jobsite Tool Bag - seems i was a scond place winner in the "Red Seal D-I-Y Sweepstakes." Now if i could win some new tools, i might be able to get hubby to do some new projects, lol.
AND, THE PRIZES KEEP COMING....
Many are small Instant prize wins and some are a little more substantial. To me they are all exciting and bring a smile. Even those 99 cent music downloads are fun and can brighten up what might have been an otherwise dreary day. They also have brought a little joy to others as I have used them as gifts on many occasions
I am going to take advantage of this time to encourage everyone to keep entering and playing. You might think that you are not winning much but those 2nd, 3rd, and Instant Win prizes do add up. Following my message is a list I compiled with many of the prizes that I have won so far in 2007 (some I forgot to record). It may seem like a long list to some, yet I know there are many who have won more than this. This list is not meant for me to boast, but rather an encourangement for those that question if prizes can be won. The answer is YES! the prizes are many and can be won by many: you just have to be determined and motivated to enter and keep entering even during the lag times when it seems it will not happen. In fact, it is during those barren times that a small Instant Win MIGHT occur and you become energized again. So, set aside some time to enter and consider it a pleasant hobby instead of a boring chore - YOU WILL BE REWARDED in time. Mr. Sweepy and his staff have made it so easy to do and many of us truly thank him for having the BEST site for sweepstaking on the Internet. I can't imagine doing sweepstakes anywhere else!
Anyway, here is my list of wins. It is not meant to be read word for word. I just intend for you to give a quick scan/scroll and realize that it pays to persevere. May you all win and share your stories.
Have a winning day, everyday,
kdilbaitis
