What have you won?

A big fat zero!

I'm right there with you! Despite entering anything and everything. A few weeks ago I bought raffle tickets at our middle schools spring production and DD6 told me don't waste my money because I wouldn't win anyways!
 
Years ago I was a member of the Beanie Babies community board. I won a Halloween giveaway package - I think it was 4 regular size beanies and two of the buddy size.
 

I've won a number of things. In college I worked retail and we had to work on Christmas eve. They brought in lunch and gave out tickets for raffles for some prizes. I won the tv which was the big prize. A year later I worked at another retail store and we had a contests- your name got put in for each store credit app you go. I won another tv and a home spa thing you put on the side of your tub. I sold the spa thing.

I won tickets to see the Backstreet Boys on the Black & Blue tour from the radio.

I've won gift cards here and there too.
 
I just (I mean less than an hour ago) won meet and greet passes for David Nail tomorrow night before the concert.. This will be my 2nd time meeting him and 5th time seeing him... I love him.. <3
 
When I was in the 5th grade won Cyndi Lauper's She's So Unusual picture record for listing the nights Top 10 countdown.


My bf and I won $10,000 together on a 10 Times The Pay slot machine. We both put in $20 bucks and hit it. Since I was the one that hit the button that turn, I had to be the one to claim the taxes. Of course, we did the math and after Uncle Sam took his 3rd I banked about $3400. Not complaining still FUN!!


On my last cruise we went to the jewelry store for the raffle. I won a Murano glass heart necklace. It is different and I would've never bought it, but I love it since i won it. Wear it maybe once a year.
 
I won a Halloween costume contest in 6th grade. The prize was a model car kit of a 1959 Plymouth or some sort.

I've had a couple of lottery tickets that won a dollar or two. As in $1 or $2.

I won a pair of tube socks as a door prize once.

I won a T-shirt from the Dancing Bear Pub (in Waco) a few months ago.

I won the girlfriend lottery in 1975, and I'm still married to her. She's my favorite prize.
 
I never win anything, unless there is a cake walk. If there's a cake walk, I'm winning that thing, every time. Not sure why, too bad there's not a casino cake walk game with a big cash payout.

.

That reminds me. DW was automatically entered into a "special bonus drawing" after winning a small jackpot at a slot machine. She won the special bonus too, a pair of panty hose.

Later we found out that everyone who earned so many points that day got the panty hose, even men.
 
Normally in my family we win "sorry, try again"
However I have won a few times over many many years
1 - computer programming book at college (I gave it away to a computer major)
2 - laptop from mypoints holiday promotion
3 - family 4 pack of tickets to Disney On Ice
4 - giant teddy bear (gave to special ed kindergarten class)
 
I just remembered that I won a poster contest for our PAC carnival in 2nd grade. My prize was $40.00 in carnival tickets.
 
A 1 ct solitaire diamond ring about 23 years ago. It was a drawing at chain jewelry store that had remodeled and held a contest. Second and third prizes were watches. That "free" diamond cost us $800 in income taxes because nothing is really free lol. I no longer have it because DH and I traded it in for a larger stone (better quality) for our 25th anniversary.

I also won a cake in a church cake walk when I was about 14. And $7 on a scratch off lottery ticket a few years ago.

DH won several things when he was in sales. One was a limo and dinner at really nice restaurant in Washington DC. I was 6 months pregnant with youngest DS so I couldn't drink anything, but dinner was good. He also won a 1/10 ounce gold coin, a calculator and a few other minor things.

I won a 50" TV a few weeks ago during March Madness. Also won a trip through work which I will get next year. Last year I won a big green egg. I never win money in lotto or Bingo, but I do sometimes win some cool prizes in contests and raffles. :)
 
old thread bump..

I really like reading about what people have won. I don't think I've won much. We gave everyone at Christmas one $5 scratch off and five $1 scratch offs. I didn't win anything. My brother ended up winning $20.
 
a long time ago I won tickets to the Jacksons Victory Tour in Chicago (I lived in MA), it was a great trip!

I won a $700 gift card to a local meat place when I lived in MA, stocked the freezer and ate well for a long time off that one

Won a $100 Bath and Body Works Gift Card on Boxerjam games a long time ago too
