Back in year 2006 I won the grand prize during our company's Christmas party, it was a HUGE basket (actually box) of goods that weighs super heavy (how I got it home is another story hehehe)...

Hubby won mucho dinero off of the Super Bowl (shhhh...Go Giants!). I have won a tank of gas. Of course that was last year, when gas was cheaper. Ummm...in highschool, I won $100 for perfect attendance. Random scratch off lottery tickets for $1. That's it. I suck. :blush:

A friend of mine has won lots of stuff including a car.

At least she took me on a few of those trips and got my name in the Daily Mirror. #######

Wow!! Impressive.

I won a free DVD twice and just last week we won a "free" vacation. I put my name in a drawing on the 4th of July and we decided to go on a cruise. I say "free" because we have to pay the port charges, fees, and taxes - but we'll still get 2 cruise tickets for quite a bit less than one. Not bad.

We also won a 2-night stay in a hotel (there are limited hotels and cities but they're good options).

09/2006 - Apply for K1

03/2007 - K1 approved

I never win anything. Except Patrick. I won him. Of course, with him came immigration fees, airplane tickets, postage for packages, huge phone bills...

Meh, he was worth it.
