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.

Just hit $100 from Macy's a little before 7pm EST.

First decent win since I've been dabbling in sweeps again. (Past couple weeks)

After MANY years of playing Victoria's Secret Rewards game I have finally gotten a card worth over 10 dollars lol. I was shocked to see one of my cards was worth $50!

Has anyone ever managed to get a win after the time to respond time limit has passed? I entered one sweep, one... no more, but tied it to an old email accidently. They never called me, but I won the grand prize. I'm a week late and just sobbing. Frown

I had one that refused to work with me when I did everything I could to respond and do what they asked (they are no longer in business) and another who after I responded late honored it and I got the gift after I explained that the winning email went into a junk folder and it was discovered late.

Write or call them and keep your fingers crossed! heart

I would call them immediately and explain the situation. Your passion and emotion may convince them to give you some leeway. On the other hand an email is impersonal, and doesn't relay emotion, you want them to feel a little sorry for you. Everyone misses the occasional win, and this week I would point out that you are getting a ton of black friday/cyber monday/sale spam to boot. This is the worst two weeks of spam of the year. vomit I hope you can get your prize.

My hubby ended up calling them... as I was crying (no lie, I sobbed until I got a headache). He just got a call back that they are gonna make an exception and send out the prize. SO RELIEVED. A $500 mistake before financially tight Christmas was going to be rough.

Despite a great year for me, money is tighter then ever. Winning a car greatly increased my tax rate and burden. Feel you on things being tight. Scraping coke rewards points and leftover gift cards to pick up the slack this holiday. Been a hecukva year for me.

Some good news on Big Win #3, shipping arrangements have now already been made. That was really quick. Though because of its large nature it may take a while because its freight (and NOT USPS/UPS/Fed Ex etc). This is my first encounter with an oversized item.

Haven't heard an update on Big Win #2, but that is also an odd situation. They are in the process of making the item(s).

This year has taught me a lot with many things I've never encountered before. Glad to always be learning new things.

Edit: Small win in the mail, Zevia 6 pack.

I can't wait to hear about #3!! I hope it's one of those big playsets because I would have jumped for joy over one of those and I want to live vicariously through you, hehe. I couldn't believe the price on those Zevia 6 packs when I got my freebie. Like $5.99 or $6.99!
