Another week of encouraging stories from winners like you.
If you are looking for even more sweepstakes to enter visit my Sweepstakes Daily Digest where I post 5 to 10 new sweepstakes each day. These are sweepstakes that I DO NOT post on this site. Sweeties Sweeps is where I post more winnable sweeps so I pick and choose what to post here. On Sweeties Daily Digest I just post a summary of the rules and prizes and give you the link to enter. That way I can post more each day.
There are lots of winnable instant win games that even new readers are winning. Here are some you should be entering right now and you will find a list of winnable instant win games listed on the right-hand side of the screen. Make sure you read how to get started entering sweepstakes if you don’t know where to go first and then join in so you can send me your wins next week.

If you would like to be included in Sunday’s weekly winner post please email me your prize story. I don’t answer every email but I will definitely post your story. If you have a story of how you are now winning locally from radio stations, grocery stores or something else I’d love to share your story. Entering locally is really the best way to win other than instant win games.
I just got a phone call that I won a $500 dollar gift card to Brookshires Brothers. I have to drive about 45 mins to pick up, but I am so stoked. This is my biggest win yet, and thanks to SSS I would have never know about this. Could not come at a better time either!

I arrived home on Tuesday to a sweeper’s dream… There was an unexpected box on my doorstep! I shooed the kids outside, because you never know – and opened the box to discover that I had won the Grand Prize in a local radio sweep. There was a letter describing the trip, and the box was full of electronic games. The DS was on the bottom, and also included were two games for the DS, an electronic NYTimes Crossword device, and an electronic Rubix Cube-based game. I was sooo glad the kids were outside because that box immediately disappeared!
My husband is excited about the trip for two to Showboat Casino in Atlantic City with hotel, dinner for two, and a spa package…
I am excited about the Nintendo DS because my son has been coveting one for many months… but Mom, aaaall my friends have one… His birthday is in Dec!
The package was from Philadelphia radio station

Wendy,
I just wanted to thank you again for your fantastic sites. We are here in Orlando on the Dew Tour contest I won from your SSS site, and we are having the best time! We got to fly first class, got a car rental, were upgraded to a premium room (which includes lots of free stuff at the hotel) at an incredible resort hotel, none of which were actually in the prize description. We played golf this morning and are now off to relax in the pool/lazy river.

I won and autographed green bay packers helmet!

Since joining SSS, I have been searching for local sweeps. In 3 months I’ve won:
- $25 Wendy’s gift card
- $75 Made in Oregon store gift card
- $50 Mrs. Meyer’s 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. You’ve changed my life!

I got the email from [email protected]! The prize is a 40″ Sharp Aquos HD HD LCD TV (one of five)! I can’t believe it! I’m still a newbee (only been sweeping since last week of May).
Julia
Just found out I won one of the 3rd prizes in the Mike’s Hard Lemonade Rivarlry Sweepstakes. A $1,000 Gift card to attend a college Football game! This is the biggest prize I have ever won!

- Tickets to Rob Thomas from local radio station
- $100 BodenUSA gift card from mylifetime.com
- I had 9 wins from Allure’s June giveaway
- So far I’ve been notified about 1 Allure August giveaway
But my biggest and best win so far has been: 8GB iPod Touch from Galtime.com!
Thanks for all the help along the way! I always tell myself…don’t be a whiner…be a winner! 😀

Hi Sweetie,
I wanted to thank you for your site AGAIN!
I entered a contest where the photo with the most votes won a trip to Disney World. The Chatroom was the inspiration for me to enter. I wouldn’t have done it otherwise. I even found the contest in the chatroom. It began 8/19 and ended 9/30. I entered my daily voting needs on your “Vote for me” database. I also sent out daily facebook and email reminders. I wasn’t expecting to find out the results of the contest until the end of October, but I received the email today 10/12 stating that I had won.
My family is so thrilled right now. I just wanted to thank you and everyone in the chatroom for opening my eyes to this opportunity and guiding me through it. The prize is roundtrip airfare for 4 day, 3 nights accommodations at a Disney World Resort and 4 3-day park hopper tickets to enjoy the Disney World Theme Parks and an 8×8 photobook (estimated value $3991).
Thanks,
Midwife (from chat)
Wendy –

My first win was 3 elegant Executive Collection custom dress shirts that I graciously gave up to my husband from The Tom James Company
They set up a fitting last week at their location closest to me and had him measured for them. They even threw in monogramming and French cuffs!
My second win was a gift certificate for $40 to one of the local restaurants in my area, this one was won through my local radio station.
Oh yes, one more win 3 weeks ago- The summer blast off sweepstakes, A first prize winning of an Apollo autographed photograph designated by sponsor (ARV $1,000)
Thanks Sweetie!

Hi Wendy!
I got a Fedex yesterday! Heart pounding…I saw that it was from scrapbooks etc., which has a $10,000 grand prize…it was a $250 scrapbook supplies monthly grand prize. I am NOT complaining in the least – I just have never gotten a Fedex for a $250 prize. 🙂 So that was super fun and exciting-I signed the affidavit and it’s in the mail today.
My other wins since 9/21: one year good housekeeping subscription in the milk sweeps, $5 in the honey nut cheerios sweeps (total $35 now), a $500 Starburst area rug in the Shaw’s sweeps-a very exciting one!! (they emailed me for that one, but Fedexed me for the $250 one above-funny to me, but I know different companies do different things), Heineken music downloads, and some more blog wins (8 of them-I enter those a lot-that’s what got me started on this whole hobby in the 1st place). It’s been another great month, and I seriously can’t thank you enough. I do not visit any other sweeps site EVER, because I love yours so much!
Thanks again Wendy, we appreciate all you do!
Jill
I started visiting your site and entering sweepstakes in May.
This week I got an email telling me I won a Wii and Wii Fit from the Dole Magic sweeps! This was an especially sweet win because my husband and I were literally just talking about how much fun it would be to have a Wii, but it just wasn’t in our budget. I also won a $250 Amex gift card from a Shape.com sweeps.
Over the past several months I’ve had small wins, including:
- $25 gas gc from the Huggies IWG
- $50 gas gc from the Sunkist Drink Up Fill Up game
- $20 cash card from the Coke Twist Text Get game
And I followed your advice to enter giveaways on blogs and have had great luck- not sure I found all of these giveaways on your site, but it was because of your site that I started entering! I subscribed to some of the blogs, and they list giveaways on other blogs- lots of chances to win!
Wins include:
- Roku digital media player
- Hamilton Beach blend-and-go blender
- Keurig Mini Brewer w/ carrying case and 4 boxes of K-cups
- Various children’s books (I love entering for these on blogs- they often have multiple copies to give away and few people enter so the odds are good. They’re small wins, but my son loves getting new books in the mail!)
Thank you for all your hard work!
Stephanie
Hi Wendy:
I thought I would send this note since you like to post winners. Those posts have been a motivator for me…if some can win, then surely I can too!
Well, it wasn’t the grand prize in the Mike’s 10th Anniversary Aluminum Sweepstakes (which was a $54,000.00 Airstream Flying Cloud), but it was 1 of 10 fifth place prizes, an aluminum baseball bat, ARV $150.00. Must be a nice bat, huh? I just got the notice today. This is my second win of any value since I started doing this the end of May.
I am having so much fun! I want to thank you and everyone at Sweeties Sweeps and Sweeties Secret Sweeps. I have learned everything I know about this hobby by reading all the great posts on your websites and observing in the chat room.
Julia
Wendy,

- 3 x $100 target gc from Mead Vocabularious, game is over
- Wii from Mead Vocabularious, game is over
Hello Wendy,
I do not remember how I stumbled upon your site last May but I am glad I did. I never really believed sweeps were worth bothering with but after reading your posts I was persuaded to try a few. And Wow! Today the nice folks at Win a Wii a Day called to say I won a Wii. Last month I won an Orange Julius Fun Fingers Contest grand prize of $500. Some of my other wins include Shaw R2X Floor Cleaner, Mars Halloween Millions candy, 3 Pace sauce coupons, the Miller Chill Sun Chaser & Bolle sunglasses and a lot of Swag. I was sadly planning to shorten my Christmas giving list this year but maybe now that won’t be necessary. Yippee!
Thanks Wendy for sharing what you know.

Hi Wendy
The other nite I went on www.hostesscakes.com and I could not believe it I won a Wii and I won a Alien vs Monster game. I have never won anything so big….I was so excited I texted my daughters well it was 5am in the morning but they were both very happy.
Thanks thought I would share my win with you…
thanks
NormaJean
Do you have a win to share?
Email me and I will add it to my winners post next week.
What do we say?
“Winners never quit and quitters never win!”
I'm still waiting for the day when I get to write in to tell you about any of my big wins. But as for now only the smallest of small. I finally won movie tickets from coke, which im giving away as a chirstmas present. Actually just about everything I have won so far is getting given away as a christmas present. I also won my first sweepstake prize. I got a package in the mail, and it was a shirt. I dont remember what sweepstake it was but it was a gi-joe shirt. I swear they loved me. I got movie tickets from one gi-joe instant win, and xbox360 game from a different gi-joe game, and a t-shirt. sadly I have no boys in my family that can fit into it, so it is becoming a night shirt for me. I got out of the hang out sweeping for almost a month, but I'm getting back in expecting to win some of those great prizes other people talk about. I want to be the one to talk about something great I won. Hopefully you'll be hearing about a great win soon!
Congrats to all the winners! I've been sweeping since late March (fell out of it during the summer, but am back), and have won many smaller instant wins. Still waiting for the big win, which I know will come someday. It is such an inspiration to read the winning stories each week. Without these I don't know if I'd still be sweeping!
I'm the same Linda as above, I just had to tell ya'll that right after I wrote that I opened my email and I am one of 10 Daily Winners in the Longhorn Real Racing Sweepstakes! Included in the winning package is a 6 pack cooler, team hat, racing notebook and a t-shirt. This is my biggest win so far!
