Has anyone actually one anything?

Question

All these radio station contests, trying to listen for the word at the right time, catching the song at a certain time, typing it all in to get points to enter for a contest or win prizes. Has anyone actually won?

Answer 1

I have won cd's  not much but still won.

Answer 2

Had you asked this in the radio > contest area, you would have found this question (and not to be mean, but they used the correct "won" XD) http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

And besides, if you're really going to try and win *only* the big trip to California, realize that it's pretty close to winning the lottery as there could be 1+ million other people trying to win it along with yourself.

Also, there are some contest setups where there are finalists, and it's probably crappier to be a finalist that is so close to winning the big prize, and yet the non-winning person walks away with *nothing* after all the time invested (to get to be a finalist, and going to the contest finalist place at a specified time for possibly hours), since it's winner take all, practically.

Even for Joe, there was a party at the end of March where I traded-in and the party wasn't that great (the staff were mentioning early on that if it had been a different day than Wednesday(?) that maybe there would have been a better turn-out), but the food was good (2 free drinks that could be alcoholic and the food was free) so that's at least $10 for dinner... :]

Answer 3

I have been collecting points for a very long time on the Corus radio stations and have put in bids and never ever won a thing.    On some of the larger prizes I've had entries over a thousand and still nothing.  Getting tired of doing the points especially with spring here, I hope, and summer well on the way.

I hope someone will respond that they actually won something, have a great day everyone.
