I Won The Year Of A Million Dreams

I noticed that there is a UK sweepstakes address and one in the US. Can canadians play too??

 

[Disneyfalcon]

Yes, Canadians can enter. But because of your sweepstakes laws, you just have to be willing to answer a math question by telephone if you win.

WOW Congratulations and Welcome Home! SSR is a great resort and you will have many memories there.

I used a business card maker program, and printed my info out 9 times, then cut it into 9 pieces, and put one in an envelope a day. No postcards, normal paper and normal envelope and postage.

Jessica is still entering, I stopped, I am quite happy now

WOW!! Thats amazing!! WELCOME HOME!!!

We have been DVC members since last summer and LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!

I am going to start sending them in but was wondering about if I had to use portcards, I starting thinking buying so many postcards might get pricey!!

I'm going to send them on regular paper like you said!!!

If anybody is interested, they handed out another DVC membership at the parks a few weeks ago, atleast according to the Dreams Castmember that Lou Mongello was interviewing on the WDW Radio Podcast this week. The same castmember also mentioned the original poster in this thread that won on a mail-in entry.

So, that's now 2 DVC memberships that have been given away. I don't know if there will be more given away or not.

Here are some of my best tips...
1. Once you start borrowing, you will never catch up again
2. Once you get a two bedroom, you will never ever again feel like you can all fit in a one bedroom and
3. Don't invite extended family, because you will never get to go on vacation without them again

Great Tips! I'll add one more - look out for what I call the WDW spiral
You travel to disney once a year
You become a DVC member
You start travelling twice a year
You buy AP's
You start travelling 3X a year
You buy more points
I'm not sure what happens next because we're stalled between 3X a year and buying more points - but that's at the top of our list.

Also, Wecome Home again from another Western Mass'er
I work in West Springfield - Live in Blandford

And CONGRATULATIONS! I think that it SOOOOOO Great!

I heard Lou's podcast today, and was pumped when he mentioned our win...Carrie was the dreamsquad lady that called our house!!!

All 3 are gone...The 1st winner was from NJ, we were 2nd, and then a family from Atlanta just got picked.....BUT, there are still a ton of great prizes, keep mailing!!!

I was reading the list of prizes last night, and there are two 2008 memberships available.

If you won for '07 and a person won before you, and someone just won, I assume for '08, then that leaves another '08 prize.

We live in Atlanta, I'm going to be (finding and) making some new friends ASAP!

Seriously, congratulations OP, you're going to LOVE your DVC! We are addicted to ours and nearly succumbed to Add-on-itis at Vero beach (our home is Wilderness Lodge)

Also thanks for all the blow by blow details, I love to imagine myself winning things like that and it helps to have details!

 

[disneynoob08]

Congratulations on such a fantastic win. Just reading this post has brightened up my dreary morning.

I read that there were 2 in 2008 also- anybody know if there is still one out there???

 

[DizneyDogs]

Congratulations!!!

I just want to make sure I understand correctly - you actually computer printed your info on the cards rather than hand writing them per the rules?

If that's correct I am going to start doing that as my hand is getting tired of hand writing all these entries LOL
