If you've got some free time... what you doin?  Try your hand at luck! Great Fortune!  Wish and Dream fulfillment!  Yes, you can empower yourself and try, try, try! That there those things called Sweepstakes. Why not try adding Sweepstakery and form-filling to your skill-set?   

Majesticalize the Future-cality of Yo'Self with Possibility!



Okay... I think I'm done over-selling sweepstakes.  For the love of God, it's easy!  I've been sweepstaking on and off for aboot two years.  I haven't won a lot but I have won a $5,000 outside playground set!  Woohoo!  Actually not having the space or need for it, I ended up giving it away to an uncle-in-law.  Whatev.  Besides this, I've won TONS of mini-gifts $10 - $100 gift cards and random BS merchandise that stays in my closet or that now trips people in the aisles of Salvation Army... not sure how many accidents I may have inadvertently caused- not my problem, statistically someone probably screams "oh god, I'm hurt!" every five minutes from exactly this situation because of this pastime, maybe.



Best Practice
  1. Setup an alternate e-mail for yo'self for this project. Chances are slim but ye may get BS spam stuff or be asked to join a BS company newsletter to participate in the sweepstakes.  
  2. Don't buy anything unless you were going to anyway.
  3. Don't sign up for text message alerts unless you want to- they could send them to you forever.

Anywho- new sweepstakes are put up every day.  Here are three websites that send out daily or weekly digests of sweepstakes to enter (so you don't have to run aboot searching for them):
  1. Contests.about.com
  2. Infinitesweeps.com 
  3. Sweetiessweeps.com

...randomly ended up in alphabetical order- awesome. 

What Sweepstakes is that asshole Jon entering?



Right now I'm only entering sweepstakes that offer huge returns or fan-favorite dream scenarios:

  1. Enter Daily to win $500,000 and a house from HGTV (expires Feb 15)
  2. Enter Daily to win $250,000 from Reader's Digest (expires March 1)
  3. Enter Daily to win $25,000 from Auntie Anne's Pretzel (expires long time from now)
  4. Enter Daily to win $20,000 from H & R Block - Facebook contest. (expires soon)
  5. Enter Daily to win a trip to Game of Thrones Hollywood Premier (expires Feb 13)
  6. Enter Daily to win a trip of a lifetime! or the cash from it from the Travel Channel (expires Feb 18)
  7. Enter Every Monday between 9am & 3pm for a Year supply of something from MorningStar Farms - Facebook contest

Note! - Depending on the state you live in, like mine, you have to pay sales tax (you fill out a special tax form when taxes come due) for big ticket items you win.  More than likely you can sell whatever it is you win so winning something you can't afford might be worth it!  In short, if ye win, make sure you leave some dollars under your mattress, down your pants, up your sleeves, or in the bank to cover your tax!
