Winners and round up! 8/31/07
Friday, August 31, 2007 12:01 AM

Well this week waspretty good for me I must say!

I'm looking pretty good to get $5 from Jellyfish tomorrow for making the top ten.

I won eScavengers on Tuesday and got a $100 Overstock GC.

And my Spanish prize showed up! It's really good! Its a Spanish DVD, CD and woden kitchen utensils. Try it!

http://www.mimasecajuegos.com/enter.php

 A steep also won one of the random Covet gift bags worth $100.

Any other winners?

Gplash has posted a game you can play which ends on SUNDAY Sept 1, so it should keep you busy over the weekend! You can win $10,000

USA Network 

 Here's what else we have been doing:

* Earning Free iPods HERE - and now for those of us who are incredibly patient, free iPhones by clicking on ads. I only do the ones which ask for my email or zip code, and that's it. I received a Nano, this site IS legit!!

 * Earning Free Wii's HERE - you need 5 referrals for a free wii. So far I have 3. For each referral I get I promise you one referral in return. (Maybe up to 5, but at least 1)

* Playing eScavengers when it is on - sometimes there are really awesome prizes to be won! If you havent signed up yet, please consider allowing me to refer you so we can get extra doubloons. Just email me and I will email back referral link. You guys need to get in on this - 7 Steeps have won so far!

* Playing Golden Jigsaw - usually one piece is released each day. Check forum for clues, or post clues if you are so inclined. The first person to place the final piece wins a million dollars. Thanks to everyone who has been keeping the forum up to date with hints! You are awesome!

 * Playing the Case of the Coveted Bottle game each Tuesday for another 6  weeks. At a minimum you will be entered to win $10,000 among other prizes.

* Playing instant wins every Tuesday - try the Entertainment one - you can play once EVERY hour, and we are all enjoying hurling darts at thieves in the AMD Virtual House instant! (Did you see what happens when you hit other objects around the house?)

* Playing games on Jellyfish. Smack Daddy announced a NEW game coming up soon. Not many details but it will be 24/7 and cash can be won. It's called Smack Pot. The number 1 winner on jellyfish so far has won $2135 from just 2 games! They are also getting ready to 'smack' a car on September 5th. that should be interesting. If you are in the market for a Toyota Prius you might want to check it out. Should be worth watching at the very least!

Also, they have upped the cash rewards for outwit. First place each month gets $200 now instead of $50, and 30% accuracy gets $250 now instead of $100. 35% is still $1000, and 40% is still $5000

Come join us in irc #jellyfish! We have a lovely friendly group in there who would be happy to show you the ropes :) 

Entries for site of the week close at 6pm tonight. Email me any cool sites where you can find super bargains, play games for prizes or instant wins (preferably that you have won on). sandi@steeplemedia.net. Winner announced Monday.

Have a great weekend!

FREEBIES! 8/30/07
Wednesday, August 29, 2007 11:05 PM

 I got 15 Freebies this week so far, plus my $4.16 from Save My Husband!

 Freebies from: John Frieda, Yogi Tea, Garnier Fructis, Listerine Whitening, Playtex tampons x 3, Sheba catfood, Airborne supplement, Kashi Go Lean Bar, Kozy Shack recipe cards, Coffee Mate coupon for $3.99, Alagio, National Eye Institute Activity Book, 2 RD foods cookies (didn't get to taste them, but kids liked them!)

1/ Free 20 oz Coke and Coke Zero and cup Coozie

This is totally borrowed - and totally cute. It's a mock up claim against Coke for confusing us poor victims between Coke and Coke Zero. But if you check privacy Policy you will see it's a Coke promotion. Very cute!

I basically said I was a victim of taste confusion on many occasions! 

2/ Tetley Iced Tea. Not sure if I did this one before..but I haven't received it so I'm guessing no.

3/ D.A Salon and Cosmetics free lipstick. You must sign up for email newsletter, then it will open a new page to tell them where you want the lipstick sent. No color choice given.

I tried to avoid quasi free offers, but several of us thought this was a pretty good deal, so I'll include it:

Free* Lipgloss valued at $19 from Tarte Cosmetics. Shipping however is $5. BUT if you order 3 items, shipping is free, and it just so happens they have lip pencil sharpeners for $2 each, so you can get the lipgloss, plus 2 sharpeners for $4 total. Sound good? Ok, so select JAKE & Samantha lipgloss and add to cart. Then find sharpeners in tools and add to cart. Then begin check out process page 1, click continue. On next page enter LATINA07 in coupon box. Your total should adjust and say $4. Enter payment details, and away you go!

4/ Free trading cards and cute stuff for kids when they sign up to be a Safety Ranger

5/ Free Harpers bazaar subscription from Rewards Gold. Must review a nailpolish and provide 1 friends email. 

6/ Health and Beauty sample pack - which apparently is polite for tampons and pads lol 

7/ Murad Intensive Wrinkle Remover. Not that anyone around here could use this..ahem..

8/ Healing Garden Moisture Lotion with spf 15

9/ Omaha Steaks Cook book and $600 of coupons (is that possible?)

10/ Keyboard brush (wow I really could use this) from Crunch Time

Please feel free to add your own faves this week down below!

And get those site of the week entries in! I still have plenty of CD's to giveaway!

Experience the thrills and fun that is eScavengers! TONIGHT 9:30pm EST
Wednesday, August 29, 2007 2:31 PM

Listen, Scout and Unruli and I are getting tired of winning these things.

Can you get your behinds over to irc #steeplemedia so we can help someone ELSE win for a change? Like YOU!!!

I am joking, a little, of course. I just experienced my first win last night - and it's AWESOME!!!

This is the 7th win for a person from Steeplemedia.

Not all prizes suit all people.

Tonights prize is a $25 Gift Card from Personalization Mall

I don't need it, plus I want someone else to have a turn at WINNING!!

I will do my BEST, as will everyone in SteepleMedia to help those who want to win, well - as long as you do the same when it's something you don't want to win! When its something we all want, then hopefully one of us wins it!

For your best chance at winning, you should plan to log in to irc around an hour ahead of game time. 

COME ON! It's so much fun, and it's not that hard to win when we help each other! 

If you haven't signed up yet, tell em sandi@steeplemedia.net sent you!

Shopping Bargains - review
Wednesday, August 29, 2007 12:02 AM

Nope, I can't pick the best, I'm going to have to list them all again! They are all still awesome!

1/ JELLYFISH of course. We have been talking about it for weeks! You can win stuff and you don't have to buy a single thing if you don't want to.

You can play OUTWIT after each deal, you can play GURU GUESS each weekday from 1-2pm EST and soon you can play Smack Pot. Details released soon.

If you like to have friendly banter between games, come join us in irc #jellyfish. All we ask is that you talk and don't lurk, because everyone likes to know who they are talking to in there - plus we welcome new people and are happy to answer all of your questions to help you along.

They also have Quests now - a Toyota Prius will be "smacked" on Sept 5th - which will be very fun to watch, and should provide a great deal for someone. The next quest reward is turning points into cash - for every point you earn they will pay you 50c for! 

It's complicated! Check it out and you will figure it out as you go!

 2/ TANGA

 I love Tanga, I really do. I wish I had more time for it and more people would get into it! Tanga is great if you have kids, like board games, like puzzles, like cheap stuff. They usually have one deal a day, starting at 10pm EST, but sometimes they have a Tangathon - like the one that started on Monday and might still be going when you read this. During those they put up one cheap item after another until they sell out.

They also offer points for completing puzzles each day - but these are HARD! I can't do a lot of them on my own! If you are a top point earner you win prizes each month. Usually top 20 I think, but sometimes top 50.

3/ WOOT. Just in case you haven't heard of it. Check it out. Also a deal a day site with occasional "Woot Offs" 

4/ BARGAINIST I find the format really user friendly. Updates regularly during weekdays 

5/ For you Ebay enthusiasts: Last Minute Auctions (beware shipping costs), Fat Fingers and for the utter bizarre Bizarre Bids

 6/ Found this courtesy of the Bargainist also - AMAZON Friday Sales - every Friday. Big Labor Day sale coming up too.

7. GottaDeal. This site is especially great for those BIG sale days like Labor Day and Black Friday. 

8/ Nothing over $20 is the tag line. I love it! COLLECTIONS ETC 

9/ How to earn a Wii for FREE. Am I missing something here? Noone wants to do this, so maybe you all know something I don't or you are (understandably!) worried you will forget to cancel the trial offer within 30 days? Anyway, if you want in, let me know! 

10/ My own post - how to get MAGAZINES for FREE or super cheap.

11/ BODDIT. Awesome feed that updates constantly new deals it finds from across the web. Love it.

12/ This was a Site of the week feature, but I'm going to put it here too since its a shopping one. SLICK DEALS 

 Happy Bargain Hunting!!

Know any more? Email me! sandi@steeplemedia.net

4/ Candystand.  Always have a game or two whilst you are playing a game or two. Fun

5/ Imagine my excitement when I went back to check on the Lunchables Transformers poster instant - and found a new one for a Wii there as well!! It's a good sign! Go get your Transformers poster for kids under 17 - 20,000 to be won and they are cinema sized, huge posters.

6/ This Jack Link Snacks one is still going but its a whack-a-mole type game now. i have played this like 1,000 times and not even won a bobblehead but every else sems to win something..

Site of the Week - Review
Monday, August 27, 2007 1:01 AM

 With so much going on right now, it's hard to keep track, so I thought I'd stop for a minute and review what we have discovered so far, because there is some good stuff in here!

1/ www.dealsucker.com     Updates constantly all the deal of the day sites

2/ www.findkoolaidman.com (Winner - Zach) This is still going but has age restriction of 17.

3/ www.club.live.com/home.aspx (Winner - Winnie) Last I heard Winnie herself claimed a zune. No word from anyone who has received anything yet. I am at around 11,000 points, still working towards the xbox!

4/ www.tvbigboard.com (Winner - Kimekaze) This is the one I won $250 from. With only 5 entries. Amazing, considering there are people on there with over 2 million points.... The sweeps part is still closed down though. If you do sign up, pls use the usual email address as your referrer. I recommend holding off on signing up for now though. I'll let you know when teh sweeps are back up.

5/ www.slickdeals.net (Winner - Fleur-de-lis) A great site for coupons especially and hot deals.

Also www.promosquad.com Listen to music and earn points which can be traded for prizes. They also have random drawings fairly often. I won a CD recently. Use the usual referral email for this one too.

6/  http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/  I LOVE this site. I have downloaded so much stuff or free already. Check both sides - games and the other side which is usually applications. One half is on summer break right now for a couple of weeks.

Also http://www.vivalagames.com/play/gateway/fullscreen.php Really cute game which I started and totally forgot about! Too much to do!

7/ www.searchforbourne.com (winner - scoutmom) This has ended but it was heaps of fun. I hope we see some winners here soon.

DRAWINGS AND NOTIFICATION OF WINNERS
Potential winners will be randomly selected in a series of drawings on or about August 17, 2007 from among all eligible Entries received for that particular drawing conducted by Sweepstakes administrator, an independent judging organization. Daily MasterCard Prize winners, City Prize winners, Sighting Prize winners and Grand Prize winner, (or, if a resident of a jurisdiction that deems him/her to be a minor, his/her parent or legal guardian) will be notified by telephone of his/her potential winner status within two (2) weeks of the drawing date. DVD Prize winners (their parents/legal guardians if residents of a jurisdiction that deems them to be minors) will be notified by mail within two (2) months of the drawing date. If a potential winner cannot be reached after a reasonable effort has been exerted during three (3) business days from the date of the call, if he/she is found to be ineligible, if his/her prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, or if he/she cannot or does not comply with these Official Rules, winner(s) will be disqualified and an alternate winner(s) may be selected at Sponsor’s sole discretion.

8/ www.samplescoop.com - now known as www.samplegrab.com (Winner - Unruli1) Lot's of freebies. If I was you I wouldn't bother with the perfume ones...unless anyone has a good idea of what to do with a bunch of scratch and sniff cards?

9/ www.freecycle.org This is where people advertise stuff they are throwing away for FREE. Just pick it up.

Also www.craigslist.com Similar to Ebay but NO listing fees. Pretty popular. I have used it a lot to successfully buy and sell stuff

10/ www.personalitycode.com (Winner - Ryan) No more Wii - and if you look at the top 10 scores list you will smell  a rat as much as I do. Hmmm. Anyway, I do know if you want a blinky thingy you can get one for free now, and it DOES show up.

11/ www.caseofthecovetedbottle.com (Winner - Unruli1) We are still playing this every Tuesday - several of us will probably be in irc #jellyfish or #steeplemedia at midnight to play

12/ www.bpsweeps.com Watch ads, get sweeps entries. Thats about it. Only 10 ads a week, so it's quick and painless. Hey, if I can win from TV Big Board, we should be able to get a winner here. They offer MANY more prizes. TVBB is only 1 prize.

 

Also, a few of you have expressed interest in playing ALICE IS LOST. I have no idea if there are prizes or anything, but it's a really cute story so far and I am enjoying it! So far only 8 pages have been released so you can catch up easily.

I would like to award the prize this week to GPLASH who first told me about the game!

www.aliceislost.com

Of course we will be discussing and posting answers on Winners Circle forum pages :)

There has only been one obvious riddle so far (and a few hidden ones with no apparent purpose yet) 

Please send all submissions for site of the week to the usual email address and use this address for any referrals

Well, I am still thrilled about Wlappas winning a Wii on the Entertainment instant I posted on Tuesday!

Scoutmom won an iPhone from Thanks USA!!! She also won $5 on Jellyfish for making the top ten list for July!

 Has anyone here ever won a big prize from a sweepstakes?

I have a little luck on instants but I have only won on a sweep I think twice in my life. I would love to hear about your experiences with entering sweeps, perhaps I will include them if you think they are worthwhile.

My favorites are instant wins which also give you a sweeps entry every time you play!

Like this one:

8/ Here's a stack for you. I am a bit confused by this site. It's called Classic Heartland and appears to be all about country and western stuff - but click on contests on the left hand side, then ignore all the google ads up top, and you'll find a whole bunch of completely unrelated sweeps at the bottom....Use your favorite form filler and go to town, worth a shot. I haven't seen these sweeps listed to many other places. A  lot of really good sweeps there!

 

Good luck, have fun, and let us know if you win :) 

 

 

The Case of the Coveted Bottle - Week 3, 8/21/07
Monday, August 20, 2007 10:00 PM

Turns out I was here at midnight!

Have to find the person from the code numbers first, then have to discover Morgaine's secret.

Feel free to discuss here, or go on over to forum for answer - but beware, the answer is there!

Have fun!
