I just wanted to remind you all that it IS possible to win sweepstakes and instant win games! Check out the emails I’ve received recently from these 2 readers below…


Reader, Kristi:
Hello Collin! I follow your website everyday, constantly looking for great deals. Back in late October/early November, you posted that Tony’s Pizza would give you a coupon for a free pizza if you left a “tip” for their November Pizza Contest. I only entered the contest just to get a free pizza, and ended up winning the entire Grand Prize!!!! The prize package total was almost $600 in prizes! I won a years supply of Tony’s pizza (in the form of 24 coupons for free pizzas), $400 gift card to Dick’s Sporting Goods, $50 iTunes card, $50 American Express Card, a disposable camera, and stickers! I just wanted to thank you for posting great deals for us and giving us the opportunity to win some great contests out there! Thanks!

Reader, Rashelle:
Collin, just wanted to let you know I won a $500 visa gift card from playing the Schick Visual Q’s game back in September. They originally said I would receive this in 6-8 weeks and it never came. I e-mailed the company last week to see if I would ever get it and to my surprise it was delivered by UPS today! Just want everyone to know that it’s worth an e-mail if you don’t receive prizes you win and it’s definitely worth playing the games. Thanks for always posting them!

Have you been a big winner of any sweepstakes recently? If so, be sure to email me so I can share in your excitement! AND if you haven’t gotten lucky yet, today could be your lucky day! 😀 So get to entering these sweepstakes and instant win games below…

Go here to enter the Tony’s Pizza instant win game. They’re giving away over 10,000 prizes through April 9th. That means 100 prizes every day! You could win a $500 Visa gift card, a $15 iTunes gift card, a coupon for a FREE Tony’s pizza (up to $4 value) + more! And as you can see from the reader, Kristi’s, email above – it really is possible to win BIG on this sweepstakes!

Head on over here to enter the Tropical Escape sweepstakes! You could win a tropical cruise for 5… so if you win, keep me in mind… I am always up for a vaca! 🙂 Plus, 200 first prize winners will score a set of 2 Almond Joy and Mounds beach towels. (Thanks, Katie!)

Go to the Dentyne Facebook page, click on the “Safe Breathe” tab and then scroll down to play the Dentyne Pop ‘N’ Play Facebook Instant Win Game! You could win 1 of 100 daily prizes… a coupon redeemable for FREE Dentyne gum,a $50 MasterCard + lots of other great prizes! (Thanks, Holly!)


Dollar General
has a sweepstakes and instant win game available to play! *NOTE: This sweepstakes ends today, 1/31. To play, just head on over here to enter the “Fresh Start Every Day” sweepstakes! You could win up to $20,000! Even sweeter, 100 instant winners will be chosen daily who will score a $10 Dollar General gift card! This is going on everyday in January, so enter daily for more chances to win. And of course come back and let us know if you are in fact a winner. Good Luck! :D IMPORTANT NOTE: This sweepstakes is not valid in the following states: AK, CA, CT, DC, HI, ID, ME, MA, MT, NV, NH, ND, OR, RI, WA or WY.

Register or login to your House Party account to try and instantly win an iPad, iPod, camera, gift card, jewelry, trip for two or even $10,000 in cash! (Thanks, My Dallas Mommy!)

Head on over to the Red Baron Pan Pizza Beats Delivery Sweepstakes. You could instantly win a $50-$750 Visa Gift Card or even Red Baron pizzas for a year (my husband would be in Heaven! :) ). In addition, you’ll be entered to win the grand prize $5,000 Visa Gift Card! Not an instant winner?! You can still snag a coupon good for $1/1 Red Baron Pizza. I can often find Red Baron pizza on sale for $2.50 at Walgreens so only $1.50 after the coupon! (Thanks, My Dallas Mommy!)

If you’re a fan of Pillsbury Toaster Strudels, you’ll definitely want to play the Pillsbury instant win game here! Every week, thru February 7, 2011, there will be over 2,000 winners who will score 4 coupons for FREE boxes of Pillsbury Toaster Strudels Pastries (up to a $12 value)! The odds of winning seem a lot higher than most instant win games, so I’m hoping lots of us Hip2Savers will win! Make sure to play daily and come back and let us know if you get lucky! :D (Thanks, Savvy Coupon Clippers!)


Enter the Jelly Belly $10,000 Cupcake Challenge! Just click on the image above, watch the short video and enter to possibly win $10,000! To participate in this challenge, just creatively decorate a cupcake with Jelly Belly Jelly Beans! This could make for a fun activity to do with the kiddos… and may actually end up being VERY rewarding! 😀

    so funny- i was just taking a quick break while my son is at pre-school and i entered the pillsbury toaster strudel contest on a whim and i won 4 free boxes!!!! seriously, i say it every time i post on your site, but collin, thank you SO much for changing my life! really, i had no idea until i stumbled across your website, how i could save so much money for my family and friends. i’ve got one of my best friends addicted to your site now and we have so much fun seeing how much we can save each other on things we both use for our families. there are so few things in life we can control, but it’s so nice to be able to save money on everyday things to be able to put it toward the important stuff like school and things that enrich your family. i am so happy that your journey has now become ours too. thank you for all your hard work!!!!

    • Collin

      You are so welcome, Jen!! And thank YOU for being such an awesome reader! 🙂

    • Katie M

      I just won 4 boxes too!!!!! I know it’s not $500 or anything but it’s nice to win ‘something’! 🙂 I’ve played quite a few times and was discouraged that I hadn’t won anything but thanks for the reminder to not give up 🙂

      • lms1983

        I know right! Normally do them and think to myself Im wasting my time 🙂 Does feel good to win! Now wait till tomorrow, hope I won the Petrol Jeans! LOL

    • Melissa

      I won the four free boxes of Toaster Strudel and have received the vouchers/coupons.

      • lms1983

        Have or havent? Say 5-6 wks from winning date

  3. Jesi

    can’t read the CAPTCHA on the herseys one, it looks like uller but thats not right?

    • DP

      You can switch the CAPTCHA by using the top button, until you can find one you can read.

      • Debra

        I am having the same problem and don’t see a button to change it???

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Not sure if every CAPTCHA is the same, but mine was ‘managers’

      • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

        • Shannon

          I couldn’t get the hershey one either. it looked like lowling but i tried multiple variations of the i being an l and the g being an s and stuff and couldnt get it to work. and this captcha is different then most there is no button (at least not on mine) to change it. I even went out and came back in and it was the same one for me.

  4. stpatty3172000

    I have won the Pillsbury Toaster Strudels 3 times!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      I really want to win the toaster strudel. I aven’t bought them in a while and everytime I go there and play the look so yummy!

  5. BekMomof3girls

    I won a $10 gift card on the Dollar General instant win game. 🙂 Thanks Collin!

  6. Wendie Lather

    I won 2 $50 gift cards on the Tyson instant win game, during the holidays.
    I also won $1,000 from Publisher’s Clearinghouse, and $500 from ShopAtHome.com.
    I won an iPad on facebook, a few products and gift bags. I also won a laptop and a pair of skis from Outside Magazine. Been a great couple of months.
    Can’t seem to win anything on the blogs though…perhaps someday 🙂

    • shannon

      wow! wtg!

    • fran

      Congrats, Wendie, that’s a lot of wins…way to go! 😀

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      How did u do that?Amazing!
      Do u play everyday?

      • Wendie Lather

        Yes I enter some sort of sweeps every day. I try to run through my instants each day, and will continue entering daily or weekly entry sweeps…and so on…
        It’s the best hobby in the world!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Wow! That’s awesome! You should play the lottery. I, on the other hand, never win a darn thing, LOL.

    • Alea

      Awesome to read that someone DOES win from Publisher’s Clearinghouse! You sound like me, I have pretty good luck with contests – but no luck with winning anything from the blogging sites. I too won an iPad from a Facebook contest this past December and my husband was soooooo excited! 🙂

  7. Wendy

    not a winner today

  8. Liseluv

    me either….. next time maybe

  9. Dawn

    thatnks for posting all of those!

  10. myranda b.

    I won a Kindle from a radio contest.

  11. Wendy

    Ive won blog giveaways, but dont have much luck with regular sweeps. I could really use some of these darn gift cards.

  12. Niki

    for the houseparty after I log in where do I go to play instant win game? i can’t find it. HELP.

    • Niki

      Never mind. I found it. But no luck of winning.

  13. Anna

    I won an Olive Garden GC from facebook. That was very exciting to me, as I haven’t won much lately.

    • Michelle

      Me too! I felt the same way, haha. =)

  14. Mindel

    I received an email saying “We’re happy to let you know that you’re a winner in the Olive Garden One Millionth FB Fan! You’ve won a A $10 Olive Garden gift card (terms and conditions apply) and a voucher that can be redeemed for one (1) Olive Garden salad dressing, which has an approximate retail value of $15.”. Honestly, I have entered SO many of these contests that I don’t remember this one. So I hope it is not bogus! LOL. We’ll see in “8-10 weeks”. Thanks Collin!

    • Ashley

      That one is thru OGs facebook site! It IS legit. Congrats 🙂

  15. Sheena D.

    Last week I won some box tops for my son’s school at the 2ways2earn contest. I’ve been playing a bunch of sweepstakes daily for the past 2 months or so and I’m hoping I’ll win a substantial prize soon! I’ve also won twice on blogs. I won a biplane rocker right before Christmas on this blog and my 18-month-old son loves to rock on it!

    • Sheena D.

      Oh yeah, I forgot I won the $50 GC to Target from Dr. Oz too. I knew I was forgetting something.

  16. Hilary

    I won the Dr. Oz shoes a few weeks ago and was so excited because I try these instant win games daily and never win! Thank you Collin!!

  17. sandi

    I WOULD LOVE TO WIN, THANKYOU HIP 2 SAVE

  18. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I’ve won the Toaster Strudel and the $10 Dollar General GC. Already got the pastry coupons, still waiting on the GC. Oh, and I won the Tony’s pizza greatful giveaways over on Totally Target today. Wahoo! I know it’s not huge prizes, but I think this is the biggest lucky streak I’ve ever had, and I’m pretty pumped about it!

  19. Ann

    I have won 6 bags of Halls and a couple of Xeko pets on the Quicken game (ended). The best thing I have won was a $1000 RV rental for a photo contest. It wasn’t even that great of photo. I think its easier to win some of the games that aren’t advertised too much.

  20. Sue S

    I won the Grand Prize trip for 2 to the American Country Music Awards in Vegas by entering the code from my drink at KFC!!!!! go to http://www.kfcpartyinvegas.com to check it out. I just want to thank you for reminding us to enter sweepstakes. I never did this until I started couponing….never thought anyone won! But now I enter everything I can because people really do win.

    • Alea

      That is so awesome!!! I would LOVE to win a trip to the ACMs!!

  21. Jane

    I won a diamond necklace worth $1900 from a Kroger sweepstakes game. It’s been a year but I am still shocked everytime I look in the mirror! It was a spin the wheel game where you also add electronic coupons to your King Soopers card and I was just hoping to win a free bottle of pop!

  22. Crazy Coupon Lady

    How awesome! That is so great! I have enterend all of them! Thanks for sharing! 🙂

  23. mouni

    I have been entering games/sweepstakes for as long as I can remember and I never won anything, Nada, Rien. I can’t even win the facebook offers lol. But I do feel like I’m winning with all the great deals I’ve been getting. Your site helps a lot. So thank you so much, Collin! 🙂

  24. Dianna

    I just won a month of Toaster Strudels. Thanks so much for the links.
    Something like that may not sound like much, but anything free helps out with the budget. And you never know if the big win is right around the corner….for free.
    I really appreciate the time you put into your site, it’s so much fun for me to check each day.

  25. Anonymous

    What time is it the best to win something? I’m sick of not winning!

  26. Megan Miller

    I enter tons of things, but from the list on here I won a $50 nflshop.com gift card.
    Today from a Wonka sweeps I won $200 worth of candy! My husband is gonna love that!

  27. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I won……NOTHING 600 times! woohoo! I love instant win games! lol..yup..I’m losing my mind. 😛

  28. melissa

    collin, have you ever thought about adding a sweepstakes tab to the top of your website? It would be nice to have them all in one place on a daily basis to find quickly. thanks for everything!

    • richmelony

      Add them to your Hip list.. Then everyday you just look at your list:)

  29. Lisa B

    Way to go Kristi! That’s awesome…especially the gift card to Dick’s Sporting Goods! 🙂

  30. Kristi G.

    I won a $950 duffel bag on Lucky magazine sweepstakes. Because of the value, I would have had to pay approx. $240 in taxes. I couldn’t justify it for a duffel bag, so I had to turn it down. 🙁 Now, if it had been an iPad or something everyone in the family could use, I think that would be worth it! I still keep trying though! 🙂 Thanks Collin!

  31. Stefani

    I won a Golf and Spa get-a-way in a box of Kellogg’s Smart Start a few years back. It was a $10,000 trip that was great fun. There were 3 winners and to have won was crazy! So keep trying and you’ll never know what surprizes are out there. I just hope I haven’t used up all my luck in winning!

  32. Candy

    I just won 4 boxes of Toaster Struedels! Thanks for posting and reminding me about this!

  33. Crystal M.

    YAY!! I just won 4 boxes of Pillsbury Toaster Strudels. 🙂

  35. Kelly K
