My latest Win

I'm happy to report my latest win. A 42" Sony Bravia HDTV flat screen TV from Kraft. I was so shocked when I saw the words Congratulations and a picture of a TV pop up on my screen. I mean, I rarely win instants as it is, but to win such a large prize?! Come on that never happens! Let me just say if felt good. The wins have been awfully slow in this time of recession. I needed my sweeping hopes and motivation to be renewed. And that about did it. I have new vigor in my entering. Good luck to all in your sweeping endeavors!

New Gift Card Site

I'm always on the lookout for a new site that offers prizes and/or gift cards. I'm a member of great sites like Mypoints, Winzy and Blingo. I love Mypoints because you just read emails with advertisement and you earn points. Save up enough points and you can exchange for giftcards. I always go for the Amazon gift cards. I have an aunt I got savvy to Mypoints and she loves getting Bath and Body works and the move rental cards. I also have redeemed for Starbucks. I love, love there Strawberries and Creme drink.

Anyhow I lucked up on a new site. It's not actually new, but new to me. Its calls Swag bucks. It's a combination of Winzy and Mypoints. You search, like Winzy, Blingo, Google or any other search engine. Like winzy you get points but only when you win them. It picks it randomly. When you win the points you save them up and can redeem them for prizes and gift cards like mypoints. They have several different choices of prizes such as video games, cell phones, ipods and mp3's, dvd players, camcorders, guitars and drums, t-shirts, trading cards, posters, dvds and gift cards. Not to mention they have my favorite, Amazon gift cards as well as Subway and Starbucks.

I really don't see a bad thing about this site. You can even trade in old cell phones you're not using in exchange for swag bucks. It looks like a great site I'm going to frequent often. If you want to sign up just click on the links below.

Wall Art Win

I received a beautiful silver and red wall sculpture in the mail the other day. It will go nicely in my living room I plan to do in deep red. I haven't taken it out of the box, but I do have pic of it. I also received my $50 gift card from Kraft. I decided to splurge on myself a little. I plan to get a manicure and pedicure. And I still should have enough left over to get a Starbuck's Strawberries and Creme and a book from Barnes and nobles.

The end of the month is near and tons of sweeps expire as always. I really need a big win. A cash prize would do me quite nicely. Or even something expensive to sell. That would really help out right now, with my move. I hope to be reporting a good win soon.

Wins are wins

I won a few small things since my last post. One thing was a $10 gift card for a great site called Spotwinner.com You watch commercials on the site of varying topics and products. For everyone you watch, you receive 10 points. When you reach 5000 points you can exchange them for a $5 giftcard. The more points the higher the giftcard value.

You can also win by being picked instantly whild watching the commercial clips. Which is how I won. And if thats not enough, they also give away daily, weekly and montly prizes via drawings. The prizes are great like video games, video cameras, dvd players and ipods. I haven't won a large prize yet, but I have hope. It's easy and quick to enter, so I try to visit daily.

If you sign up it would be great if you used me (bdsweetie-Shania) as a referral.

Freebies!

I don't have any wins to report, but the next best thing to a win is a freebie. You usually fill out a similar form with your name and address and all that jazz. A few weeks later you get a little gift in the mail. It's usually a trial size, but free is free. I like the little cereal boxes the best. Here a couple of freebies to start you on your quest to free-dom. I find that Walmart offers quite a few freebies. It would be to your advantage to check back with them often.

Winning streak maybe?

Could I be on a mini winning streak dare I say? I can only hope. I just need one big win to make things right in my world. To ease this drudgery of debt that looms over my head. Anyhow, I won a First aid kit and also $50 in an instant win from Kraft. This was my first time ever winning from Kraft. They hold many contests, but they are so heavily advertised and entered that they are harder to win. You would have thought I had won a million bucks, I was so excited to see the winning screen. I already have plans for the money. I started a new healthy living regimen called Body for Life. It encourages weight lifting and therefore I need a weight bench. I actually went to Walmart the day before winning the $50 and saw a bench for $48.77. How's that for working out for the best! Maybe soon I'll be winning a fitness contest for a great bod. Lol. I can dream can't I?

Good End and Start

The month of July has ended and I won a prize on the last day. How great is that?! I got a call from New York saying I won a prize pack which includes a t-shirt, tank top, luggage tags etc. I'm not even sure what sweepstakes it comes from. The lady told me but I wasn't listening to well I was so excited. By the way, I don't recommend that. You're SUPPOSED to listen carefully so you can make sure you follow any directions that give you and know what to do. Luckily all she needed was to verify my address. They're sending it out in 8-10 weeks.

If that wasn't good enough news, I also won a prize today on first day of August. An instant win, which was surprising. I rarely win instants in the middle of the day. The best time, I've found, is late, late at night or early, early in the morning. Anyhow, I won a DVD from Universal. It doesn't say exactly what DVD, but it should be something fun to watch I'm sure. Most likely it will be a horror film, since that's what the contest was about. I'm going to confess a secret. I'm a scaredy cat. I don't watch scary movies much at all. I'm afraid of having nightmares. No kidding.
