Good luck to all!
I won one of the smaller prizes for 10,000 AAdvantage miles several years back.
Winning this would be a nice way to end the holidays.
Also, my family won an A&P Disney trip when I was small. So many ride tickets that we gave them away to strangers.
Just won a Caribbean cruise, which was fantastic.
I don’t usually win, but I keep trying
I was fortunate enough to win a Garmin Fenix 3 smart watch, Sony Action Cam, & a portable battery pack from MasterCard & IHG 2 years ago!
My coolest was a $200 gift card
thanks for your site
thanks for all the contest information
i only won publishers clearing house once. and it was only 25 million…
Only thing I’ve won in United drink tickets
A $50 Amex gift card
Nothing exciting but 2 drink coupons
I won $2.00 on a lottery ticket!
A trip to Spain
I was blessed to win 2 Alaska Airlines tickets with the Alaska virgin merger.
I won 250 dollars in my Chase account last year. So random, but all of a sudden I had 250 more than the day before. The strange thing was, there was no notification about winning.
I won a brand new drone last holiday season, definitely the coolest gadget I own!
I’ve won an assortment of random small things over the years from contests and radio giveaways, but nothing big like a car or trip. Just a basket of scratch-offs and some HOOU coupons. I did win on the scratch-offs ($10) and a drink is always a welcome treat when flying DL!
Accor points, too.
Starpoints.
Once I heard the end of a contest-be the 10th caller, but I didn’t hear for what prize. I called and won. The female disk jockey said she was exited a woman had won. Then I found out the prize was two tickets to a monster truck pull. (Not my thing-but magicofmiles goodie bags are!)
Lately I haven’t won anything “cool” though. Is it because my standard has increased, or is it just getting harder to win anything?
Then I moved up to hotel stays. A night here, two nights there. That was when I first started to travel a lot. Fun times!
Coolest contest win? Gosh, it’s rather hard to say. When I first started, I suppose it was a Bose QuietComfort headphones. A bit too big for my head though.
I won a $900 coffee table once; not my style so I sold it for $250.
Lately it’s been a dry spell though. C’mon, Christmas is supposed to be a time of sharing, yes?
Tho, early in my contest hunting days, I used to win smaller trinkets (think tumbler, egg poacher, stuff like that)
Most of my winnings are hotel stays
Then again, fitting in with the travel theme, I did win a year of ExpertFlyer Pro in 2015 that was cool when I flew a bit more than I do now.
I also won a Kindle Fire 2nd Generation more than a few years back that was also very cool. Thanks.
When I worked for a sportswear company I won an in-house contest and was able to select a great winter jacket for my husband. Every winter we are thankful to have it. Not that we couldn’t acquire another winter jacket, but this one has a particularly nice cut and is super warm and waterproof. He looks great in it.
I think my coolest win was an iPad Mini 2 a few years back. Thanks.
I won third prize, a skateboard, in a bike shop raffle in Peru Indiana in 1979. Much to the chagrin of my brothers. Still can’t skate..
It was fun opening a grab bag of travel swag.
But I did win a contest that Wandering Armenian was running a few years ago.
I think I’m due for a win this year.
Another great thing that I won was a huge prize assortment from Gogo many years ago when they hosted a 12 days of giving Holiday Season giveaway. I won the final and biggest prize. I was a supporter before that, but really a fan of Gogo afterward. The package didn’t come with any Gogo passes. However, whenever I have flown since I have never minded paying for Gogo when I need to use the internet in flight.
I have won some fabulous things in my life. I consider myself lucky in general (not just winning contests) but maybe it has more to do with my general optimism that makes me see things through an “I am lucky” lens. One great prize I won was a trip to be a “Hydration Specialist” to Tiger Woods on the 9th hole of some golf thing. It was supposed to be his first appearance back after a long injury. A week before the trip, scandal broke and he had the troubles in his home life and couldn’t make it. We still enjoyed our paid vacation to watch a bunch of golf in Southern California. The week long trip for four included airfare, resort hotel, endless days of Golf watching with VIP passes and entertainment (food and drinks) access, car rental, Nike swag bags, some cash, and probably some other stuff. None of us are particular golf fans but it was worth it for the experience. Something I would not have done had I not won it. I did have to pay taxes on the value of the trip, but it was still worth it.
won a $500 prize from Rubios for filling out their online survey
Thanks for sprinkling so much joy with your daily giveaways!
I’ll go check out the contests you listed and maybe have a win from them!
I got our Jeep paid off when we owed almost $25,000 on it! My husband was SO thrilled!
won a nice set of headphones a few years back. Thanks
I won a prize box from you
Would love the Gogo passes
Not winning much but then I don’t enter many contests
I once won a Royal Caribbean cruise from a Coca Cola sweepstakes
I haven’t won it yet, but winning a trip to the moon. My wife keeps saying she’s going to send me there. 🙂
Winning a trip to Myrtle Beach.
The Accor contest is great, I get 100 points almost every day!
My coolest contest win — hands down — was a radio contest in 1981 in which I won a brand new Chevrolet Monte Carlo!
Winning the 25 GOGO passes was a great win recently.
A third was airfare for 2, 3 nights at the Las Vegas Wynn, and $1,500 to spend at the hotel (I used to enter a lot of contests).
Another one was a Lufthansa First Class Duck
I won a Hawaiian Tropic trip to Honolulu with airfare for 2, lodging at the Turtle Bay Resort, all meals at the resort, entrance to Miss Hawaiian Tropic events, and I think some cash to cover any taxes.
I would really like to win one of your giveaways this year. Thank you for posting information on some of these other contests.
I did have a fun win when I received a first class British Airways amenity kit.
I think my most exciting win has been concert tickets over the radio.
I LOVE contests and the possibility of winning.
I, also, won a box of science fiction books that arrive, by surprise, at my house. I was really excited about that as they were all by one of my favorite authors. I had entered the contest and then forgot all about it.
I won a week-long trip to Niagara Falls with Motel 6 a few years ago.
I pretty much got a rock (I think I won an electric train as a kid, and a map as an adult).
I never win anything! This would be a great start 🙂
