Why can't you go???
because Im on disabilty and though I can get my passport( I already phoned) I can't afford the taxes and food and other fees and I can't find anyone to go with me..I am soooooo bummed out....I never thought in my life I would win a biggie like this..I amnot enter contests anymore.
Oh no :( :(
OMG I'd go with you!! lol
man what a bummer Wanda :( So sorry to hear...
Is there a cash option instead or do you just have to forfeit?
And don't let this discourage you from entering more contests, you obviously have luck! please smile :)
omg that reeaally sucks!!! :frown: How much do the taxes come to? Are you sure you asked everyone you know if they want to go with you? Maybe you can find a family member or friend who would be willing to help out with the taxes if you take them with you? Did you already turn the prize down?Quote:

Oh man Wanda, that is really sad you can't go. Wow that just sucks. I wish there was a way to help ya out.
Received a registered letter today saying that I won a secondary prize in the Canada Post "Great Holiday Sweater Re-gift" contest.. which turns out to be a sweater. :surprised:
:-)
Wow, so very sorry Wanda. Keep looking for someone to go with you

Wanda. I thought it was your dream to take your mom to Florida.
I won!! I just got an email from soft moc saying I'm a potential grand prize winner. I think it was the one through ctv for $350. I'm so excited. I love that store. Contest closed December 31st and just notified today. They only give me to Monday to respond. Not like. Says 10 winners so watch your inboxes folks.
