Want to win more cash and prizes? Why yes, thank you. Donāt we all? Your best chance of winning a prize outside of entering national instant win games or sweepstakes with thousands of prizes is to enter local, more focused sweepstakes. We call them restricted sweeps because they are only for certain people to enter. Usually you have to live in that state to enter. Entering local sweepstakes will cut down on the competition because less people will enter if the sweepstakes is restricted to a certain state or even a group of states.
How to Find Local Sweepstakes
You can spend all day searching for local sweepstakes and yes, you can indeed find them on your own without any help but why not go to a website that does all of the work for you?
Sweeties Secret Sweeps is your answer for local sweepstakes. We find them for you and post them on our private site.
Why is the site private? To keep the competition down even further. Even though everyone can find local sweepstakes most people wonāt spend the time looking for them because it is a laborious, time consuming task.
Does this site cost? Yes. There is a $25 yearly fee to join. It takes a lot of effort to find local sweepstakes and post them for all 50 states. The fee covers all kinds of things from our hosting to paying the people who do the work for you. Most members say they win their fee back and more within a month. You should definitely win it back over the course of the year.
Think of it this way, some people donāt like to clean house so they pay a housekeeper, some donāt want to find sweeps so they pay someone else to find them for them.
Disclaimer: There is no guarantee that each state will have the same amount of sweepstakes listed. We can never promise any specific amount. Our job is to find what we can for your state, give you resources for you to find them and teach you how to find them on our own.
However, all states are represented and all states are searched for equally to make it fair for everyone.
You also have to remember that you will not find 1,000s of sweepstakes for your state at any one time like you will with national sweepstakes because they are for one or more states. National sweepstakes are a dime a dozen and also much, much harder to win. Enter less with better odds and you will win more prizes. Itās that simple!
Can you guarantee that I will win?
Absolutely not! There is never any guarantee that you will win whether you enter a national sweepstakes or a local sweepstakes for your state.
There are many factors involved in winning.
First: you have to be willing to put in the time and effort to enter. We cannot do the work for you.
Second: it requires patience to win from entering sweepstakes. Maybe your state wonāt have so many sweepstakes this week but will have more 2 weeks from now. All it takes is one sweepstakes to become a big winner. You just have to wait for the right sweepstakes to enter that will make you a winner.
Third: to win on a regular basis you have to see this hobby as a long term
Fourth: Quality versus quantity. Like I said, you can enter lots of national sweepstakes but you will have a lot of competition because this is a huge hobby with hundreds of thousands of people entering at any one time. The more locals you can enter the better your chances of winning and you wonāt have to enter as many.
Itās about working smarter, not harder!

I just got an affidavit saying that I won the Grand Prize in the Ravenswood Winery Giveaway! Iāve only been sweeping since early this summer and Iāve never won anything ābigā before. I canāt believe it! Thank you so much for posting these sweepstakes for us, Sweetie. I was hesitant about spending the money to sign up with this site, but I love the main Sweeties Sweeps site so I decided to give it a try. This is a pretty good return on my $25, I think!
Iyo
Hi Sweetie,
I canāt believe I have another big win to report, but here it is. Earlier this month I won $1,000 through the Ravenswood Winery sweep on your Secret Sweeps site, and I was notified a week later that I won a KLX140 dirt bike in the Kawasaki/ Monster Energy sweepstakes you posted months ago! The ARV is $3,000! I about fell over. My husband is overjoyed.
I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate all the work you put into this site and your Secret site. Money is tight for us right now and weāre trying to save enough to move back home, so these wins come at the perfect time. Iāve only been playing along since June and had never won anything worth more than $80.
Anyway, thank you so much, and please keep putting the good sweepstakes out there for us! š
Laura (Iyo)
Whoohoo danced around the house today. I won a $100.00 gift card for the grocery. It was a surprise in the mail. Already went and stocked up the bare cabinets. Its my second win on the secret site. Thank you Sweetie and all the sweepers.

Yay! I won a 46ā³ LCD TV and a $750 AMEX gift card. This is my first big winā¦Iāve been sweeping since August and so far had only won two $25 prizes and a cooler. This was from a Georgia only sweepstakes. I am currently unemployed so this money is a HUGE blessing, and we are going to sell our other TV to put some $ in the bank as well.
I was so excited when the rep called that I had to put the baby in his crib so I wouldnāt drop him, LOLā¦
Kristie
Since joining SSS, I have been searching for local sweeps, especially local radio station giveaways. In 3 months Iāve won:
- $25 Wendyās gift card
- $75 Made in Oregon store gift card
- $50 Mrs. Meyerās cleaning products gift card
- I also won a 8GB iPod from Coors Lite Bold & Cold listed on this site.
I am so excited about these prizes! They will be used for Christmas presents and make the holidays a little less stressful!
Thank you Sweetie for all your hard work in finding sweeps. Youāve changed my life!

I have recently joined Secret Sweeps and itās a great site, I used money that I have won to pay for it. I have also recommend your site to many friends and told them that if they win anything they should join the Secret site. It is worth the money.
Thanks again for the help,
Karen
Refunds:
There are no refunds given and the fee is only $25 for an entire year, the cost of one dinner out or a pair of cheap shoes. You will most likely win enough prizes and more to pay this back over the course of the year but this is never guaranteed. Many readers have won thousands of dollars in prizes so the small registration fee is definitely worth it for what you get back.

Is Missouri a good state for secret sweeps?
Amber says
I think the paid SSS is fabulous and I understand how running a site can be expensive. Iām hoping I start winning some of the smaller giveaways so I will have the extra to pay for a membership! š I just started sweeping and havenāt won anything yetā¦but itās only been about a moneyā¦..we shall see what happens and I hope to join SSS in the futureā¦..and crossing my fingers that New Mexico has a good number of restricted. š
Brenda says
Sweetie,
I have not been on SSS in a very long time and can not remember my password. I no longer use the original email I signed up with, because it got hacked and my whole address book was getting spammed. Come to think of it my subscription might even be expired. Can you let me know how I might be able to retrieve my password?
Sweetie says
you need to email me. I donāt post that kind of information via comments [email protected]
donna s says
just joined sss. however i wanted to know how to find just sweepstakes for missouri? do i have to search for it? i cant figure it out
donna s says
Nevermind, I figured it out. Iām loving the SSS
Lauren o says
Hi! I just paid to join yesterday. Do you get an email saying how to sign in?
Sweetie says
You will need to email me at [email protected]
Alicia says
Anyone else have a problem with the secret sweeps site? I log in and every time I try to go to another page such as the chat room or whatever, it just takes me back to the login page over and over. When I click login again, it says āhello Aliciaā at the top so I know Iām logged in. This was a waste of $25.00 if itās not even gonna work.
Nina says
The same thing has been happening to me
Michele T says
Has anyone found a solution to this yet? Iām havin the same problem.
Sandy says
Just wondering how Virginia ranks as to sweepstakes availability
Sweetie says
Virginia is a good state and since I have two children living there and I grew up there for 21 years I tend to look for sweeps for VA all of the time š
Chris says
Hi Sweetie,
Iām in Iowa. Is this a good state for secret sweeps?
Sweetie says
Iowa does have sweeps. Actually ever state has restricted sweeps and all it takes is one win to earn your fee back. Iowa does not have as many sweeps as some other states but it is included.
Jamey says
Do you see many for Florida? I see a lot that exclude Florida, so just want to make sure.
Thanks!
Sweetie says
Lots for Florida for some reason. There are at least 25 live sweepstakes right now just for Florida, I just checked.
Jamey says
Thanks! Iām ready to sign up!
Holly says
Iām looking to find the best source for mail-ins/local sweeps. Iām a member of another site but I feel like Iām not getting all thatās available out there.
I live in Ohioā¦do you have a lot of sweeps from that area? Just kinda hesitant to sign up if itās gonna be duplicate information š
krissy says
I was kind of curious about this too ā Iām from Ohio, and I really do want to sign up for the site, I just want to make sure there are a decent amount listed. Thanks š
JAMIE HALL says
Hey , thinking about joining SSS . Is there many sweeps for Alabama?
Tanya says
Do you often get sweeps for SC?
Daleene says
Hi Sweetie,
I have been enjoying the free site for a while now. I have not won anything from using this site in particular but have won from other blogs. I am thinking about joining your SSS, but I want to know if Idaho has any sweepstakes to enter.
Thanks
Tina says
Hi everyone..I just wanted to address all of those out there who really arenāt sure about joining the SSS. Iāve been a member since last October and it is such a wonderful resource. The 25 dollars is nothing compared to all of the information and knowledge that you gain from it. Sweetie Sweeps are the best and sheās on top of her game with all that she does. I started winning on the Huggies Rewards immediately after just finding Sweeties Sweeps on the web last year, and then found out about her SSS. I joined and have been absorbing in all that I can like a sponge. This past month has been āMYā month. My very first big win to a local baseball game (VIP all the way) ARV 1500.00, then I won tickets for my children and I to go see Yo Gabba Gabba (VIP) ARV 500.00, and I just found out that I won tickets for my husband and I to go a Washington Redskins game this Sunday (VIP once again-he nearly crapped his pants when he found out) ARV 1750.00. Now Iām just praying that I can afford to pay the taxes on all these goodies. Now these are just my wins from September 2010. There have been many other small wins that help along the way. And there is NO GUARANTEE that anyone will win anything but the more you know about how to enter the better the chance you will have at winning.
Amy says
Are there more trips to be won in the Secret Sweeps than in the regular ones? It seems like a lot of the people Iāve read testimonials on have won trips.
Sweetie says
there are all kinds of sweeps. In general it seems that companies like to giveaway trips but we post whatever we find for all states, not just for trips
Racheal says
I am seriously thinking about joining, but want to know if Missouri has a lot of sweeps or if its even worth it to join from MO..
Peggy says
Hello, Thought I would give SSS a try, and just joined today. I have received the regular Sweeties Sweeps for awhile, and thought I why not give it a whirl. While browsing, I have found that South Dakota does not have a whole lot to offer as far going to the specified state sweeps. Hopefully, I will be able to find other sweeps that are open to all and I become a winner. Canāt wait to post on the winnerās page.
Sweetie says
Peggy, Unfortunately South Dakota is one of those states with not that many sweeps in the SD folder but make sure you look through the multi-state because SD is usually included with a handful of states in your area. You can also search by typing your full state name to see where else they may be posted on the site
nicole says
hello i was wondering if Michigan had sweeps thinking of joining Sweeties Secret Sweeps
meganL says
Hi I will join if you can tell me if there are a lot in Massachusetts? Please let me know as I would take the risk, but a little more info would be appreciated, thank you.
Terra says
Can you tell me if there are a lot for the state of Pa? I am just wondering if there is a chance with being from Pa. Thanks
Jan says
Are there a lot of sweeps for Michigan? I see someone else asked but you never answered..Thanks!
Cynthia says
I was thinking about joining but I thought sweeps where free? Why charge for them? Their are so many free sites!! Why should I pay for this one?
