How To: Sweepstakes

Background:

Before I started this hobby of mine, I was always a skeptic when it came it sweepstakes. Who wouldn't be? These sweepstakes ask for personal information and most of the time, people are afraid these are scams out for our money. However, I can tell you that there are sweepstakes that are absolutely real. I have entered and won multiple sweepstakes with prizes including a Keurig coffee brewer, an iPad Mini, and a Xbox One console with a Kinect. To date I have gotten over $1000 worth of prizes so don't be afraid to enter sweepstakes!

Methods:

1. Fill out the form - Do NOT fill out the forms with fake information. The address you put down will be where the prize is mailed to you. If you put a fake address, you will not get your prize even if you win. I have never gotten spam in my mailbox before so you don't have to worry about that.
2. Have a semi-junk email address -  I do not recommend using an important personal email to enter sweepstakes. Some companies will require you to subscribe to a newsletter as part of the entry process. These aren't spam but they can still be annoying if you don't shop with the company often. However, you can't just use a junk email and never check it. If you win a prize, companies will use your email to get in contact with you. If you do not respond to them by the deadline, you will not get the prize. Someone else is going to get it instead.
3. Unsubscribe - If you like shopping at that company, go ahead and keep the emails. They often send out coupons and notify you of their sales. However, if you don't want to get these emails anymore, just look for the unsubscribe button at the bottom of the email. Companies are legally required to include one. This will declutter your email so you don't end up losing important winner's notification emails.
4. Facebook/Twitter - Some sweepstakes require fb or twitter involvement. On fb, you just have to Like them; no big deal. Just make sure you read the windows before authorize anything to prevent auto posting. Some will require you to post a tweet. I don't use twitter personally so I just have one for sweepstakes. If you don't have one, make one. If you already have a personal twitter, make a new one.
5. Enter daily - Sweepstakes are drawings. The more entries you have, the more likely you are going to win. Enter daily if you can to increase your chances of winning. Use the autofill option on your internet browser to your advantage. It will save your info and you can fill out a form often with just a few clicks of the mouse. Once you get use to it, you can go through a bunch of sweepstakes within a matter of minutes.

Conclusion:

Don't be afraid of entering sweepstakes. Although there are some scams out there, I will help you sort through them and present you with the good ones only. Let me know if you win anything! =)

About OhSoDealicious

I have been couponing and entering sweepstakes for a few years now. Not only do I get to save a bunch of money, I get to have fun at the same time. It has become a hobby for me. 

It all started when I was an undergrad at UC Davis. My friend that I shared an apartment with at the time was getting boxes of stuff in the mail. She told me that they were samples and that she was getting them for free. She told me about a site that I could go on to sign up for free samples, and so I did. I loved the idea of getting useful things in the mail for free. As I got more and more into getting these free samples through various websites, I stumbled upon the concept of couponing. That opened up a whole new world for me as I could now get even more things for free. It was exhilarating to go to a store and buy things for a fraction of their original cost. I was going to have to buy the item anyways, why not save some money right? One day, one of the couponing websites that I was following listed a giveaway. I thought to myself "sure, why not?" and entered. I thought I would have no chance in winning. But a few days later, I got a surprise in my email. I had won a brand new Keurig machine! I wasn't sure if I had really actually won something, but a few days later, a big box showed up at my door and sure enough it was a brand new Keurig. I was amazed. Couponing was great but I was only able to get small items like toothpaste, shampoo, and food products. Here I was now: getting something worth $100 for free. These days I sign up for freebies, I coupon, and I enter sweepstakes almost daily.

As much as I am thankful for these couponing websites on the interweb, I realize that I spent a lot of time going through deals that just don't apply to me. All these sites were pretty much focused on stay-at-home moms and that just doesn't apply to someone like me. I am not a mother yet; I am a student/young professional just trying to save some money. I don’t need things like diapers or shoes for kids, nor do I need camping equipment or magazine subscriptions. Sometimes, the deals I find don’t even work in California. So I decided to start a blog that's tailored to people like me, to share what I have learned so that I can help fellow students/young professionals save money. What I do is find useful, applicable deals and outline them so that anyone who reads it can understand exactly what the deal is. I'll tell you where to go, what coupons to get, give you tips and tricks, and show you how the numbers all add up. So please enjoy the site and I hope that you will be able to benefit from this blog of mine.

Sincerely, 
Lily from OhSoDealicious
