Is anyone else old enough to remember Cappy Dick? That little cartoon in the Sunday paper that you colored and sent in for a prize? Well, I won the NATIONAL Cappy Dick prize for my entry when I was 10 -- a set of World Book Encyclopedias. Woo hoo!

OP here. I've got the sweepstakes fever. I'm a member on a Disney board and they have a sweepstakes going on. They're picking like 60 winners. So far 14 people from my board alone have won! I'm happy for them, but extremely frustrated that I haven't won! For those into Disney, here's the website: http://disney.go.com/memories/

I'm still entering everyday with the hopes that I'll win.

Would be nice to actually win something that I actually try for...I briefly started entering sweepstakes through another board and folks were winning these instant prizes left and right (small silly stuff like candy bars)...I couldn't even win those!

I won a green card a few years back. I also won sports tickets and apple products in raffles. I also won concert tickets on the radio.

I won a trip to Europe for me and several friends; it was awesome! Then I started entering everything I could and ended up with nothing more than a bunch of junk mail.

sister's bf won 1.2 million awhile back and was smart about it, kept working and didn't splurge, he was a cop and got shot at about 5 years after he won and retired the next day.

Just curious.

Lottery: Only play when the jackpot is super high, most I've won is about $10.
Sweepstakes: Never won although I sometimes play.
