I've messaged them on Facebook & sent another email asking WTH is going on. If they made a mistake, it was an extremely cruel one!

Their Facebook page is blowing up right now with over this issue. It will be interesting to see how they handle it.

I received notification of a UPS shipment weighing two pounds from the Contest Factory. This is first I've heard of them. After checking their website I found they have clients which include Cici's Pizza, Tracfone, Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Markets, N. California Chevy dealers, N.W. Chevy dealers, MyLifetime, Net10, Rocky Mountain Chevy dealers, Vegas.com, Deutsch, Carapelli, Pr1mary Color, Project Runway, Cl!x Portrait Studios, and MakeAStar.com. Of those I only remember having entered the MyLifetime and Project Runway sweeps. Some of the rest I may have entered on Facebook. I'm hoping for an affy since I haven't seen one in a long, long, long time. I should find out next Monday. GLTA and congrats on the all the wins - big or small.

If you won the Sandisk IWG that's likely what this alert is.

"Message from Jonathan Klinger, Vice President of KraftMaid:

I deeply regret the e-mails sent in error on our behalf to hundreds of participants in the Get The Look Sweepstakes. These e-mails, which incorrectly notified them that they had won a $500 gift card prize, were subsequently recalled.

On behalf of KraftMaid, I would like to reassure all recipients of these e-mails that they will receive a $500 gift card, provided they otherwise meet the requirements of the sweepstakes. Our team will be in touch with you shortly.

If you have any additional questions or concerns, please e-mail us at [email protected]."

I won one of today's instant prizes from this one:

https://www.facebook.com/bicmulti...1374684811

The instant prizes vary from day to day, and looking down the list today's is the best one! It's a 10 pack of flame disks (self-contained charcoal grillers), a tabletop grill, and a BBQ lighter.

Thanks MLx3!

I just saw that post on KrafMaid's Facebook page. Glad they're going to honor our wins, even though it was the promotion company who administered the sweepstakes that made the huge mistake.

Holy moly, if there were 300 winners, that's a $150,000 mistake. Ouch...

Congrats to all who won, though!

Exactly why I'll believe it when I receive it. Would be quite the honorable resolution by KraftMaid.

That's exactly how I feel right about now.....tentative. Went from being really excited, to being big-time bummed, to doubtful but hopeful.

Having worked for a huge company for several years now, I can tell you that a decision like this was not made lightly. If the VP made a public statement, they plan on sticking by it. They already have egg on their face from the initial screwup and now they are trying to put a positive spin on it, which works well for them and for all the "winners". I think it's a very admirable thing for KraftMaid to do, and while it sounds like a lot of money, it won't hurt them that bad...200 grand is the equivalent of 3 or 4 normal salaries. I'm sure everyone will get the prize so congrats to you all. Just wish I would have been one of the lucky ones..LOL. The bad news is that the poor sucker who caused all those emails to be sent in the first place. He/She is probably out of a job.

What was the email address it was sent from? I'm feverishly checking my spam and spam filters. I know I entered this one.
