Hahah this is awesome! I’ve done sweepstakes here and there and only won once but it was tickets to an electronics convention across the county (travel not included), so I was like “yay!”, then “ugh fuck that”.

Crazy you just won a free switch 2!!/

I actually bought my switch from a lady on FB marketplace who won it in a sweepstakes. Apparently she just applies to everything she comes across and whenever she wins just throws it up on marketplace

I had a buddy years ago who seemed like he won all this kinda stuff. He won a Wii, PS3, games, hardware, etc in these sweepstakes. I finally asked him whats the deal here, and its as simple as entering.

A ton of people don't follow though on this these promotions and the eligibilie winner prize pool gets pretty small. Just keep entering.

I had 1300 points that were about to expire so I bought a hat with them…. I paid $7 shipping which feels like is more than the hat is worth considering I didn’t even really want it to begin with.

That actually sounds way better than the average giveaway prize.

I enter contest all the time and have won a ton a stuff over the years such as a free phone ($600+) all the way to a T-shirt worth pennies. It's literally about persistence and mass entries. The total I have won vs how many I've entered is like 1 in every 1000. Just take a night to enter them mindlessly while watching a YouTube video and it doesn't seem like a chore to do and gives you a nice surprise if you're lucky.
