I won't be a winner because I didn't enter until the end of July. I do have a question though. The people who will be finding out they are winners this week; were their postcards drawn on June 20 or July 20? Thanks!

Last month I believe it was May..so I think this month's winners were pulled in June.

We won in August, it was around the 15th or 16th. That puts us at 9 prizes in all. 4 ears and 5 lanyards.:banana: :banana: I have been mailing cards since it started. I first just sent in my name, then added husband and daughters in January. I get the post cards out 4 to 5 times a week. We feel very lucky.

Well we're finally seeing some winners this month! For a while there, it looked like August was not going to favor the Dis-ers...
I've only won once, and that was in June. Still sending in one postcard a day.

I just got the call!! She said they just drew all the winners for the month. I won a set of Mickey ears. I had to answer my skill testing question:scared1: but answered it right!!! It makes me so nervous answering those questions always afraid I'm gonna mess it up. Multiple 100 by 2 divide by 50 add 38 and subtract 7...the answer was 35.

I won once before in February...then I won a landyard...it took about 10 weeks to get it after I answer the question last time.

To the posters who inquired, some of us have been sending in postcards to try and win prizes such as Dream ears and/or lanyards with special YOMD pins. I don't know how to copy and paste the info from somewhere else, so maybe someone who can do that will come along and fill you in.

I think I got called directly after you! I won a pin and lanyard set and I can't wait to get it! I got called about 2 months ago for a set of dream ears so when she stared asking the question I almost just yelled out 35!!!!!!

I haven't received my ears yet. Both times they mentioned they were backed up and it could take 8-10 weeks to receive your prize, so maybe they'll come in time for my October birthday! I'm going to keep sending in the cards though, it's definately paying off.

Are you sending in an index card mailed in an envelope or our you just sending a regular old postcard (like ones you buy on vacation)? Also do you need to address it to the Dream Team or YOMD??

Then sending it in an envelope? My DH seems to think you can just send those in the mail.

I hope you have your ears in time to bring them with you on your trip to get your name on them. Hoping to have my ears before we leave but we'll be cutting close...

I'm gonna keep sending them in too...never know third time could be the big prize!:goodvibes
Have a great trip!

Hi! What is the phonecall and skill testing question all about? Does Disney so this before you can become a winner? I'll be a nervous wreck if they ask me a math question on the spot. :confused:

You only have to answer a question if you live outside the US.

Then sending it in an envelope? My DH seems to think you can just send those in the mail.

I bought pre stamped post cards from the post office. Then I send them through the printer so I don't have to write out my info. I still put a return address on the other side as well as the "To" address. Oh and I print a Tinkerbell picture under my infor on the back side, and a Micket picture on the ones with DBF's info.

Early on, I started out sending 3x5 cards in an envelope but when I read the small print, I decided I was supposed to be sending a postcard, so I have for the last few months.
