Hi Friends, a while back I posted that I was one of five grand prize winners in this sweeps, which included a trip for 4 to Miami. I'm here with my 3 good friends and guess what....you got it....I won the car!!!! Winning the trip was fantastik...the car was the icing on the cake. To top it off, all 4 of the us get to ride in the car one lap around the track tomorrow with Matt Kenseth. Yippee!!! More to follow...gotta go now...having lots of fun.
Addendum: The car is a 2009 racing equipped Ford Mustang. ARV: $30,000. My hands were shaking as I selected a key from a Ritz Crackers box, and turned the key with Jamie McMurray sitting beside me in the passenger seat, and voila...the engine started. Lots of photos from amateur's cameras and Kraft Foods also had a pro photographer there. Kraft is planning to announce the winner tomorrow sometime (11/15/8), so watch/listen to hear the announcment if you're a Nascar fan and you are able to tune in to the race.
Another great thing...I now get to be among the lucky sweepers who are elligible to enter Mr. Sweepy's $10K Club. I've been an avid sweeper for 5 years or so and this is my first really big prize. I've always believed that it is not a question of 'if'' I would be a big winner someday, but rather 'when." So my advice is to perservere, always believe you can, and be positive.
