Some more prizes in the mail

I know, I know. I've been completely negligent in keeping you up to date on my recent winnings. Since my last post, I've won a couple of free bags of M & M's on the Mars Halloween Million Dollar mansion game, a couple of free jars of salsa from Pace, and $20 from Coke. I've received some more goodies in the mail, too. I got a free t-shirt from Miller Icehouse.



I didn't get any notification that I won. They just sent it. My brother got a nice t-shirt out of that deal.

I also received the La Victoria salsa coupons that I won a couple of months back in the last day or two. For some reason, that product is not distributed in this area, so I swapped those with another sweeper on my favorite sweeping site, Sweetie's Sweepstakes, for some cinnamon roll coupons and free cereal coupons. At least I won't starve, right? Although I'm not sure what a diet of salsa, chocolate, cinnamon rolls and cereal might do to you....

Toodles!

No sweeping=No winning

I think I am proving the theory that you have to play to win. I'm totally off schedule and have played very little the last couple of weeks. Needless to say, I haven't won much. I did add another jar of Pace Salsa to my collection just before that instant win game ended. Now they are doing another IWG, but no money is involved. Just coupons for salsa. But still, free is free, right?

Sweeps Geek's Giveaway

Thanks to all of you who entered. The winners have been selected and contacted by email. Once all have been verified, I will list the winners (first name, last initial only for their privacy) here on the blog. I plan to do more giveaways--probably once a quarter-- so stay tuned.

New "Secret" Sweepstakes Site

Wendy Limauge, who owns and operates Sweeties Sweepstakes (see my favorites list), is offering a new subscription site. Here is the link: www.sweetiessecretsweeps.com. Per Wendy--My new site will focus on restricted sweepstakes and local giveaways that give you more of a chance for winning prizes because there is less competition. It will be ad-free and chocked full of great restricted sweepstakes all of the time. It will also be a place where I post sweepstakes that are not highly advertised on lots of other sweepstakes sites.

If you are serious about sweeping, this is the site to join!

Regards,

Sweeps Geek

Successful Sweeping

I am just exhausted! Sweeping is like having a second job. :) I spend at least an hour a day playing Instant Win games (my fave--I like the rush of instant gratification) and entering sweepstakes. Thank goodness for Roboform! That saves so much time. If you are starting in the sweepstakes game, you definitely should download that program. It is free. I have won two more coupons for free Pace picante sauce and won $5 two more times from Honey Nut Cheerios since I last reported my winnings. I'm still waiting for that big win!

Toodles!

Favorite Links

I've added a link to one of my favorite sites, Sweeties Sweepstakes. (See the Link to the left in Sweeps Geek's Favorites). This is a really well organized site, and she gives you lots of tips, pointers, links to great sweeps and more. Enjoy!

Source of income?

I won another $20 gift card from the Coke instant win game yesterday. What is really cool is that they actually put $25 on the card. My total money winnings to date is now $75. I've read that some people use sweeping as a means of supplementing their income. I'd love it if I could win enough for that to be a viable option. I mean, $75 is great for grocery money or other necessities, but it's hardly a living. It will come in very handy, though.

It would be nice to win a TV, also. Mine is about to bite the dust, I think, from the cracking and the popping noises it makes sometimes. I hope it doesn't blow up!

Today, I finally unpacked the sewing machine that I bought for myself a couple of weeks ago. A friend gave me a Target gift card for my birthday, so I used it to get the sewing machine. Now, if I can just remember how to thread it.... It comes with a manual, but reading it would take away the challenge, wouldn't it?

I haven't done any sewing in about 12 years, but I'm hoping the hang of it will come back to me. I want to make baby girl some cool Halloween and dress up costumes.

Rain, Bubbles and Winning

I can't believe it, but I won another $20 gift card this afternoon from the Coca Cola sweepstakes while my baby was taking a nap. Why my luck kicks in today instead of last night for the Powerball drawing is a hypothetical query rife with irony, but I'm not thumbing my nose at $20. $170 million does have a pleasant ring, though.

It's been overcast and raining a good part of the day, but baby and I still went outside and played on the porch several hours today. She just loves to be outside and doesn't seem to mind if it's cloudy. I blew lots of bubbles for her which entertains her endlessly. She also thinks I'm funny, but she's a pretty easy audience. ;) Of course, I find her even more fascinating. I can just see those little wheels turning, especially when she hears the word "no". She does not care for that at all, but none of us do, really, do we?

A couple of the sweeps I've been entering ended today, so I've gotta go find some more to enter. Hope my lucky streak lasts for a while....

Toodles!

The results

Here's a picture of my beautiful gift card that I received in the mail today. I'm a winner!!!
