I won a pair of bunny slippers during an Easter promotion on a shopping website a few years ago. Wah-hoo!

Oh, and I did win one of the MickeyMomsClub Disney party in a box a few months ago. That was really fun!

Guess I need to try harder - congrats to all of you - especially those who have won trip!

The only thing I have EVER won was when I was about 8yrs old, and it was a barbie calculator!! It's not for a lack of trying! Congrats to everyone who has won something....especially the big prizes! It gives hope to us losers!

I've won a few little things from the local tv stations - 3 umbrellas, $10 Sonic gift card and coffee mug. I can only win once a year but whenever time is up I enter. Few people must be entering because I win within a month of entering.

I've won lots of little gift cards at various events, raffle drawings at conferences for work--the biggest was a week in a Condo in FL. They ended up offering me $1000 in cash, as an option. Took the cash so we could buy airline tickets from MN to CA to visit our kids.
Last fall, my dh won a raffle prize--2009 Polaris Rzr 170 -- they included several cool additions to the base model and the trailer--Retail value was around $6000---had to pay the sales tax--anyone want to buy it? Since it is a Youth model, it's too small for the adults in the family and the dgk are to little. When we sell it, we will buy a few things we need and pay for part of our Disney vacation.

I won a trip to England in 2001 at King Richard's Faire. There was a drop box you could put your name in and hubby told me not to bother, it was a waste of time. I teased " I'm going to win!" and put my name in.

I got the call a month or so later and he hasn't told me not to enter anything since. It was only a few days but they paid everything, food, spa treatments and we stayed at The Cliveden House, we could never do that again!

My husband has won a few gift cards and I've also won a few movie tickets. I haven't entered anything in awhile. Maybe I will start up again.
