Have you ever won anything? If so what was it and how did you win it?

The only thing I have ever won was on a call in thing on a tv show.  I won a prize pack but I had to fight to get it.  I finally wrote a pretty nasty letter and then I got something in the mail a couple days later.  I never win anything.

That is awful! You won something and then they didn't want to give it to you? Sigh...

I've won several things. Once one $20 off a scratch off ticket, a $100 gift card, a trip to Montana to the Marlboro Ranch, and a 2014 GMC Terrain.

Yeah.  I was so upset.  It was called a prize pack.  Suppose to have several items in it.  I was around 20 and called in and they talked to me live on tv.  And to me that was a huge deal.  Remember I was 20 or so.  lol.  It took several months to get anything.  I finally wrote the station or the producers of the show.  I am trying to remember the name of it but can't.  And asked when the prize pack assuming it even existed would be sent to me. lol

I do remember the question.  What is Randy Travis real last name.  It is Traywick.  And you had to be the 3rd caller.  Awesome was I was the 2nd caller and then also the 3rd caller.

The closest I came other than that was when I entered to win a t shirt and entered me and mom.  And mom won.  : D

Okay, wait, I did win a $100 gift card toward kids clothes in a department store drawing.  I had forgotten about that.  And you won a GMC Terrain?  That's awesome!  Did you go to the Marlboro Ranch?

I won $1000 on a nickel slot in Alantic City. That was a while ago and I haven't come any where close to that since.

I won a game of Go Fish a few years ago when I was playing cards with my then 5 year old daughter!   :D

When I was 8 I went to the County Fair.  I had quarter and decided to try my hand at winning a teddy bear.  There were five darts to throw at the balloons that had a number under each on.  You could get the big teddy bear if your numbers added up to 11 or less. I was terrified, but I threw the darts. I had ten points with one dart left.  And I threw it...and got a 1, making a total of 11.  I picked the big pink and white teddy bear and walked on air to find my parents.

Pick 4 Lottery.  I actually had a dream that my sister called me at work.  My boss handed me the message and it read "X 5295."  When I woke up, I remembered the number and called my husband and told him to play the number.  Played it for 3 days and on the 3rd day won $250.  Three times a charm!  :D

A couple of months back I won a $10 Amazon gift card, too.

The only thing I have ever won was small amounts on the NC Education Lottery.  When I say small amount I mean less than $10 dollars.
