Luck Can be Bought - for the Price of a Stamp!


Millions of consumers’ everyday purchase products they don’t want or need just to get an official game piece for a chance to win cash and prizes. Yet, there is a cheaper and easier way to win any of the prizes being given away – buy a stamp. By law even people who never purchase the product have to be given the same chance and odds of winning the sweepstakes as those who do purchase. So how do you get that same chance?

Simply follow the official rules and mail in an entry. Yet, many times just finding and deciphering the official rules can be a game in itself. Why? Since manufactures would rather you bought their product they make getting the official rules difficult by putting the ‘no-purchase necessary’ rules inside the product box, giving an 800 number to call, or printing the offial rules in print so small that you need a magnifying glass just to read them.

     In fact, for years sweepstakes enthusiast Theresa Curtiss of Utah has spent more time in the middle of the grocery store aisles, reading and copying the official rules from product boxes, than she has actually shopping. So much time that store clerks no longer stop to ask her if she needs help. “Anytime I see the word ‘win’ on a product or sign out comes my pen.” she said. “There are sweepstakes everywhere, on every kind of product and in every type of store, if you only look." Theresa actually spends hours in stores searching for new sweepstakes to enter and never comes home disappointed. "It’s become a joke with friends that I don’t shop for bargains, I shop for sweepstakes.” But the laughing always stops when they find out how much Theresa has actually won, with only a stamp.

Curtiss is proof that winning without purchase is not only possible, it’s profitable. As an avid sweepstakes enthusiast for the past 20 years she has won thousands in cash and prizes, all without ever purchasing products she didn’t need at that time. To date she's won twelve trips including her most recent a 5-day/4-night trip to the 2004 SuperBowl. In fact, in 2004 SuperBowl sweepstakes alone she won over $12,000 in cash and prizes including 4 T.V's, $500 in free groceries, Merry Maid house keeping service and enough party supplies to get her through the next couple of SuperBowls, all with a 37 cent stamp.

Curtiss has been so successful in her hobby that many call her a 'professional sweepstaker'. While some think of her as ‘lucky’ she willingly tells everyone her ‘lucky secret’ - “Buy stamps and enter everything!” Using a good sweepstakes newsletter list is also essential as the shear number of sweepstakes out there to enter and win make it immpossible for one person to find them all. Contest News-letter use to be that reliable source but when they went out of buisness Curtiss found and started using "It's Your Lucky Day - Sweeps List". With "Lucky Day Sweeps List" Curtiss can get all the official rules for winnable, big prize, ‘no-purchase necessary’ sweepstakes. "Having all the major sweepstakes rules in one easy to read and follow format allows me more time to enter and win", said Curtiss. And win she does - with only a stamp!
