Many of you are playing the Wonka Every Hour, Every Day Sweepstakes and some of you are having problems with your codes disappearing.
Wonka called me today (8/5/09) and I found out that they have pretty much solved the problem of codes being wiped off your account. You will probably need to delete your cookies for that site one more time. However, if the problem does come back you can contact them and they are very nice and will work with you to make sure your codes reappear.
I also found out that winners are picked at the end of each hour and if you look at the prizes to the left of the current prize on the site you will see the winner’s names. Actually is the first part of a winner’s email address they use to log in with.
The full winner’s list won’t be up until the end of the month and the winners won’t be notified until the end of the month either. That is standard with a sweepstakes. Remember, this is not an instant win game. It is a sweepstakes so that is why you don’t get notified instantly.
I went to the site after i seen this, and i dont see anything about winners name here. So everyone who won will be notified at the end of august, not 15 minutes after each hour right?
Correct because the rules never says winners will be notified 15 minutes after the hour. It says they will be notified at the end of the sweepstakes. As noted, this is a standard way of notifying winners for a sweepstakes. If you look closely on the prizes that were given away for the hours BEFORE the current hour you will see the winner's name. It doesn't show up immediately though so you will have to check back. As I see them I am posting them on the daily prize list.
Haha i just asked the Question on your other wonka link about weather your notified after the hours over or end of promotion and looked to the left of the page and saw this Thanks Wendy for doing such a good job keeping these things manageable for all Us sweetiessweepers
