It has been a while

I've been without a computer for quite some time now. A part of me missed it and a part of me was just "eh" about it. But I am now back in full swing on everything that I use to do, which is a lot of sweeps. It's a good chance to take when you have a toddler and a new baby on the way!! It would be so awesome to win some baby things I need. But after a few weeks of entering and entering and still not winning it starts to make me kind of glum about the whole process. I spend quite a bit of my rare free time entering. But I've finally broke to dry spell lol. I won a DVD  Not a big win but a win is a win! It just gives me more motivation to keep entering. 

I've become more aware and picky of things that I enter though. For instance when I started out I would basically enter anything and everything whether I wanted it or not, I figured I would find someone who did. Now I've changed my tune and only enter into sweeps that I truly want the prize and can use it. If I don't want something or think "I'll never use that" I don't enter. It just gives another person who really wants that prize and can use it a better chance at getting it. I'm pretty sure not everyone does this but I'm also sure I'm not the only one. 

Anyways, I thought I would share my first win in a long, long time. It's exciting. 

An Update on My Wins

In a previous post I told you about how I had won a coupon for a free package of Huggies diapers via their instant win game (EnjoyTheRideRewards.Com) Well that day when I was playing the game had frozen up on me a few times and I was a little upset to reload the page and figured my points were lost... I was wrong! When I received my TJ Maxx gift card I knew my coupon would be there the next day. Well to my surprise I received a coupon for the Huggies diapers AND a coupon for a free refill of Huggies wipes (180 count)! I must have won when it froze up!

Here's something even better I had points from the free diapers and wipes I was wanting to use. I got online entered my codes, got my points and figured I'd give the instant win a shot since it'd been so good to me. Plus my son loves the animation it plays of the baby and laughs every time the baby laughs, pricelessly cute! Well I won AGAIN more diapers! And any mama knows free diapers are truly a gift, for sure! I really feel blessed to have been so lucky. I am still in awe... Thank You Huggies!!! That's a total of 4 wins in 2 weeks.

I also didn't post here that I won a pair of Puma Sneakerina Shoes from gURL.com giveaway! They're retailed at $65. I'm SO excited and I can't wait for them to show up!

Look for more posts here. I hope I am helping some of you save and win. After all that is the whole mission of this blog.

TWIX PICK YOUR PAUSE INSTANT WIN SWEEPSTAKES

Today Was A Good Day!

I started today off by receiving the Free Bacardi T-Shirt I won on Facebook in the mail. I had just thought it got 'lost in the mail' or wasn't coming at all, but it made it's appearance today!! :)

Then I headed over to the Huggies website to have another shot at their instant win game....

(Huggies has a rewards program which codes are included in every package of wipes, diapers or swim pants. You can collect those codes, enter them on the Huggies website and once you have enough turn them in for rewards, sweepstakes entries and their new instant win game! Their instant win game has various prizes you can enter to win like a cars prize activty pack, lil swimmers pants, diapers, wipes, gift cards and more! Each entry will cost you 1 to 2 reward points to play, but can play as much as you'd like.)

I am sure if you have a LO you already know about this rewards program. I figured I would try my luck with the instant win game last night and I actually won a  $15 gift card to TJ MAXX! Awesome! I was so excited! I was trying so hard for the wipes, diapers or the lil swimmers pants but no luck. I figured I'd try again tomorrow (today). Also it mentions in their terms & conditions that certain prizes are put in at certain time slots so it's best to wait too.

I tried again today and ended up winning a Jumbo package (30) of diapers. So awesome. I love winning and especially if it is something for my sweet LO too! So if you are a part of Huggies Enjoy The Ride Rewards, head over and try your luck at their instant win game! I've won twice in two days so it definitely works!
