    won a "dress to wed" sweepstakes, custom made Farage wedding dress from Paris and wedding jewelry from Kristy Kelley(I think that is the designer)

    won a 42 flat screen tv at a work conference..lol..they first gave away an ipod...I want an ipod so bad!! I was bummed...then I won a tv..that was cool!!

    won a cookie jar...it's a cute red fire hydrant..Chevy(our lab) knows where his bedtime snacks are!

    I got an ipod jacket in the mail once..I want an ipod so bad!!

    ha ha...I don't remember how young I was but our church was having some type of "fair" thing....I won about 8 cakes in the cake walk that day...My mom was so mad at me!!

    The most I've ever won in a single day at the casino was $675 but I've won up to $13,000 on a lottery ticket before and $2600 several times. Haven't been to the casino in a few months.

    Unfortunately I haven't won anything but the longer I don't win anything, the closer it becomes to the day that I do win something :D

    I entered a competition in my local newspaper to win a Xbox and Stars Wars Revenge of the sith game. I won but I should have read the TOS because is was only for the game and not the console.

    So now I have a game I can never play because i dont own a xbox.

    Over the past weekend, it's been my friends 18th birthday so we hired out a hotel at a casino. Over 3 days I ended up winning $300 on roulette, I was stoked!

    Nothing big that I can remember. Unless you count an STD as a prize?
