Time for a new thread!

Please use this thread to brag & boast about the C&S you won.
Please do not bump an expired contest to tell others that you won.

slickdeals.net does not condone cheating to win more than one prize when it's only one prize per person or household. so if you won more than what you're allowed, against the sponsors' rule, please do not brag or boast about it.

Congratulations! Hope it's something fab. I'm sure you can't wait for the verification process to be complete. It's agonizing!
Just getting the e-mail had me shaking, haha. We'll see how I feel once the reality sits in. The slow tick of the clock is almost painful.

I had a Fed Ex envelope tracking for the last 6 days from Southfield, MI and had no clue what it could be. There was no signature required so I did not expect anything big. It was just delivered and inside was a black folder with "Capture the Unknown Official Winner Notification" on the outside. Inside was a check for $500. which really shocked me as I had received no winning email. https://slickdeals.net/f/8476941-2016-marlboro-black-capture-the-unknown-sweepstakes-starts-2-22-16-ends-4-3-16?v=1&src=SiteSearch

I won $250 from the Dr Pepper Summer FUNd! contest. I won $50 from them earlier so I'm not sure I'll get the second prize.

Congrats to you also. Did you get an email notifying you of the win or was it a complete surprise like mine was? Thanks Marlboro for all the great contests you run.

I won Bonnaroo tickets and they told me they would be shipped about a month before the concert. We are now about two weeks out from the event and they still haven't arrived. I e-mailed them asking for a cash alternative because at this point I can't get time off and they said no, and that they would be shipped within the next week.

I got a call yesterday that I won a billards set from the Dos Equis Most Interesting Man's Coveted Collection Sweepstakes. I have already faxed the required paperwork into them.

I'm a little frustrated, but Stub Hub here I come.
I was told they would ship 4-5 weeks in advance...then I was told they would ship this week...I'm furious. Unless you are local, no way you can use them. Now I can't even cash out in time on stubhub I don't think.

NOT enough lead time to overnight the tickets to someone. Stubhub requires your credit card on file, if you don't get the tickets in time to the person they bill your credit card for additional tickets. So you lose out on your tickets, then risk getting billed a ton of money to replace the tickets if you go that route. Buyer protection, all liability passed to seller.

If you figure out who to complain to, please let me know--that is ridiculous...I know a lot of people would say easy come, easy go. However, TAXES!!!

I understand the rules say no cash alternative...but they also said they would have them a month before the event, not a week, assuming they actually ship within the week.

I won a coupon for a free pack of Nathan's hot dogs ($6) this morning in their contest. I also received a mystery delivery from an unknown marketing company this afternoon. I was a winner in week 9 in the current Wawa contest. I received a BRIGHT Wawa beach towel. ($19.99) Thanks to both OP's.
