Entering Sweepstakes Contests and Events

I have a question for my readers:

1. How often do you enter a sweepstakes (not our blogger sweepstakes)?

2. Do you enter where it is just money, for trips, products or services?

3. Would you enter even if it wasn't something that you wanted to win, but thought you could sell it to make a profit?

I have been researching on entering sweepstakes, other than our fun blog events and from what I have read there is quite the art to entering these contests. And in order to narrow your chances you have to enter early, there is even what is called Roboforms where it makes it faster to enter a lot of contests (saving you time to enter all your info with one click ) and then there are lists and lists of sweepstakes listed daily.

4. So who has the time to enter these? There are hundreds of thousands that do. And especially during hard times as everyone is looking for an edge on the economy.

5. Do you ever enter the contests sweepstakes from ads that you find in coupons or from grocery products, (boxes, labels or even the new QR codes they are using in advertising)?

6. So, I'm curious what is your take on these? 

I do love a good contest especially when I can see it helps someone get ahead, our events we all do as bloggers are my kind of contests to enter and promote, as I feel more comfortable with these and it always helps us all. I will be reading all your appreciate comments..........

  1. I don't go out of my way to enter a sweepstakes. If I come across one and the entry will only take a moment, I enter. I do not go searching them out however.

  2. I do enter regular sweepstakes and have won a few things. I think you need to make it a daily or weekly thing like a little hobby then you should in time start winning a few things. Easy2Save

  3. I don't think we have sweepstakes in the uk because I've not heard of it. I'm not one to enter contests lol

  4. I only enter sweepstakes and contests if it's something I think would be useful. I'm not going to enter to win a year's worth of dog food when I don't have a dog. However, I have not once won anything, so I really don't bother much. I did see a tv show once about people who make sweepstaking a full time job. I thought it was rather sad that they sit around filling out forms all day.

  5. I find giveaways time consuming and I don't have a lot of time to give away. (Pardon the pun.) Now, when they use Rafflecopter, that does make it easier and I am more inclined to participate.

  6. I enter blog giveaways each week, but not a lot. I have never entered sweepstakes before. I guess I figure I won't win and don't take the time. I did see a show on TV that featured a woman who enters sweepstakes all the time and she has won A LOT!
