No Purchase Necessary...

Have you ever won or known someone who has got selected for a giveaway/sweepstakes?
Like a legit one, not a Raffle on some shoes or anything like that.
I mean those "You could win $5,000 in prizes" type giveaways.
I always wondered, never heard of anyone ever mention that.
As a kid I always saw that on cereal boxes, TV, etc...
Of course as a kid it's different, but I see it's still going on now. Anyone care to share?

I don't enter those sweepstakes, I think they just steal people's information.

Those entry forms turn into sales leads. I used to work in sales.

I've always wondered about if someone actually "wins" these sweepstakes

Someone probably does. But the companies benefitted more from the promotion.

Side note but I read the majority of people who win McDonald's prizes are the employees

by cutting out some kool aid $

also for those who buy scratchers, I suggest you try your luck a second time online, my homie did that and won $300.
