    I run across so many online sweepstakes. I enter a lot of them (which is likely the cause of a lot of my spam) hoping to win HGTV's dream home or a new camera . I've never won anything over the years.

    Any of you had any better luck?

    A couple of months ago a I won a duffle bag and t-shirt from Sirius radio. Nothing big, but it was cool that I won something.

    Hey, that's better than nothing. Was that contest limited to Sirius users?

    One time I was the 100,000,000th visitor to this website and I won a 60 Gig iPod but after filling out some forms it STILL hasn't arrived.

    On an unrelated note...has anyone noticed a MAJOR influx of spam and BS emails and pop-ups lately?

    I won the Hustle & Flow sweepstakes on ohhla.com a couple months ago. I got a free CD (the soundtrack) and a t-shirt.

    My wife filled out an online survey about a visit to Best Buy (the ones you see at the bottom of your BB receipt) and we won a $500 BB gift card.

    My spam has slowed down lately. Either that or my spam filter is working great. I have a Mac with Firefox so I'm not sure about these "pop-ups" you speak of.

    :( I continuously spank it, and I don't get squat. Well, yes, I do... I do... *ugh*... I did.

    I'm pretty sure it was for everybody. They have random contest on thier website, and I'm sure there isn't that many people that know about them. I did miss out on the 'Pam Anderson washes your car' contest.
