A CAR!!!!

First let me start off by apologizing that I haven't been around much at all. Since out last trip last Sept I have been very busy and sick at the same time-lol! My young DS got started in ice hockey this Sept, so my life lately has been all about hockey-but that can be good....read on!

I really, truly, totally won a new car-yeah!!!! And it happened yesterday at, of all places, a hockey game!! & it is not an April Fool's Joke either!

Here in Rochester, NY we have an AHL hockey team called the Rochester Americans. During each home game this season you could buy a small frisbee for about $1, wite your name and contact info on the back & toss it on the ice at a certain time to land it on a parachute. Now that it is the end of the season they kept all the frisbees that qualified and put them in a drawing which was held last nite. They reached in & pulled out my frisbee--plus me, my DH & DS were there along with a lot of our hockey friends and neighbors, etc....

I was SHOCKED to say the least and am so thrilled. I won $25,000 to towards the vehicle of my choice from a family of car dealerships in our area. PLUS I will be going to the last game of the season on Friday nite and during one of the intermissions I will be shooting a hockey puck about 150 feet and trying to get it into a 3 1/2" hole (the puck is 3") to try to win $1,000,000. Talk about a long shot!!!

Anyway, I wanted to let my rewards buddies know that A) I am still alive & B) what great fortune I had. AND By the way--I only had 2 frisbees over the whole year that were in the drawing--only took 1 to win!

So keep entering those contests, you never know what you might win!!!!!!!!!!!



WISH ME LUCK FOR FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I win I'll be calling WDW to book a month or so at the GF starting on Sunday-lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What great luck! Just think, you could be our first Rewards Board millionaire. I just know you'll be inviting all of us to join you at the Grand Floridian, right.

Good luck to you, Karen, and enjoy your new car!!

WOO HOO,
Debbie

and good luck on Friday! :)
 
THANKS EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!


I have no idea what kind of car I am going to get, my DH says it depends on what happens on Friday-lol! I run a licensed family daycare in my home right now so if I don't win the big prize (which is pretty likely) I will still need a van or larger SUV to have enough room to transport the children around. The dealerships they own are Chrysler,Jeep, Daewoo, Kia, Chevrolet, Nissan, Oldsmobile, Buick, Dodge, & Lincoln Mercury so I have alot to pick from.

BUT If I do win the big prize I'll buy whatever I want since I wont be running a daycare anymore!!!! LOL!

I've been practicing on the ice and it is tough but last night I shot 2 pucks right into the spot ,however there were about 50-60 others that didn't make it, so it will just be the luck of the draw so to speak. I'll fill you all in on Saturday & thanks again for all the good wishes!!!!!!
 
Super! Here's some more pixie dust coming your way! Just visualize it over and over again.............I bet you'll do it! I really think you will!
 
Congrats on the car, and good luck on shooting the puck!!!!!! Wow! I am so proud of you!!!
 
:bounce: :bounce: CONGRATULATIONS, KAREN! :bounce: :bounce:

Hope you make that shot! Sending some good luck DIS pixie dust your way! :sunny:

This is so exciting! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you and checking on this site to hear what happened- good luck!!
 
Remember, Karen, deep breaths...inner calm...then slap that puck right in the whole.

We're all rooting for you:bounce: :bounce:

Karen-Are you a millionaire and forgotten us little people already? LOL Put down the glass of champagne long enough to tell us.

I'm dying to know what happened
 
Helllloooooo Karen!!! Please talk to us little people!!

I live near Buffalo and haven't heard anything about anyone winning. Rochester is the farm team for the Sabres I assume that we would have heard....I hope that I am wrong!
 
Hopefully the reason she isn't answering us is because she WENT TO WDW! I can imagine her now, eating room service in the presidential suite of her favorite resort......or maybe better yet, she joined DVC, chartered a private jet, rented a stretch limo and is at the MK as I speak (or post). :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
