Which Contests have you won

[Prue]

wow congrats brodey!

[Jelliebean]

okay, I got an email saying I won a cruise, but I think its a scam!

http://www.atcoastalvacation.com/

Thats the site for it. Its kind of depressing to "win" a scam.

[elliott_gyal]

im a sucker and i would probably call them and give them my credit card number and everything if they asked. just because id be so excited.....

sorry i cant help, im really bad at knowing if the website/contest is fake or a scam...

Good luck hun, i hope its for real, that would rock!

ps; that picture u have up of that dog, thats the craziest eyes ever lol

[Jelliebean]

LOL... Yeah, I like that pic!!!

I got a "code" for winning and you have to pay for shipping of a package (like $5 US) and then apparently when you get it, it tells you that you have to book 60 days in advance and pay the taxes (like $10 a night) on the hotel. It doesnt cover airfare or travel of any kind. Sounds expensive to me!!!

i won alot of trips which turn out to be scams. last year i won concert tickets to the hilary duff concert. it was my dauthters first concert and i missed it because i had an emergancy c section in the morning and they wouldn't let me go so my husband took her.however all was not lost it came with 100 certificate for the mall and i indulged in a really nice pair of shoes. i won records off the radio when i was a teen (yes i said records) and more recently the natural match hair dye still waiting for it to come .

Brodey, have you received the coupon yet? The same thing happened to me, and they sent me an email with a link to the coupon...link leads to the save.ca site. Hmmm, methinks the " contest mistake" was planned.

Today I received a single use code for Save.ca for the toothbrush & toothpaste from the oralb mixup...the save coupon said it was valued at $17.00 not a camera but at least it is something.

Welcome to SmartCanucks carrieberry & wow that's a lot of wins! Congrats!!!


cndlady, Im glad you at least got something from the mix up!

[bcteagirl]

Congrats on the win(s) Carrie!

[cndlady]

Yup I guess a toothbrush is better than nothing...and they were very sorry about it. If you read the contest rules correctly...they really didn't have to give us anything..so I guess we should be happy to receive what we did.

Welcome to SmartCanucks carrieberry & wow that's a lot of wins! Congrats!!!


cndlady, Im glad you at least got something from the mix up!

I went to a dinner and auction on the weekend and won a ton of stuff..
1. I won a framed & signed print (for taking a couple who had never been before, better than that is the fact that they won the attendance draw which was another beautiful print) value about $450.00 my friends is worth about $350.00
2. 50 2x4s will come in very handy w/ the work we are doing on the cottage this summer Value $150.00
3. a stone goose (gave it to my MIL) value $35.00
4. a flash drive Value about $40.00
5. a crystal bracelet Value $25.00
6. a huge calculator value (8x10) $25.00
7. a waffle maker value $30 - $40.00
8. a hat value $10.00
9. A jacket (i had donated it so I gave it back to be picked again) value $100.00
10. A golf shirt Value $30.00
11. a leather portfolio Value about $30.00
12. a case of 24 bottles of Coke value about 30.00

We had 3 tables of ppl that we were with and pretty much everyone at our table won something...I think we had the luckiest table there on Saturday night...I am sure that we won in excess of about $1800.00...
Which is great because our table probably spent about 2 1/2 times that much on the auction.
