$2 from the lottery.

I won a radio contest when I was 9. I stumped the sports expert with an incredibly obscure figure skating question. What a brat! I also won several academic awards in high school, but none as sweet as that AM radio upset. ;-)

When i was 12 years old, i won a hamilton beach electric mixer at a state fair. that was 51 years ago. i gave the mixer and all the attachments to my mother. it made her happy and me, too. P.S. its still working today.

I actually won a new car when I was about 22, locally where I live. However, the taxes on it were so high, I had to sell it. But I had money left. It was free money for me which I needed, so not such a bad deal. I didn't like the color anyhow!

My degrees and a few Athletics and dancing trophies .Nothing life changing except for giving me a career I suppose . But winning seems to mean by luck and although I have won a few pounds on the lottery here and there only enough to buy the next weeks tickets

I wanted to buy a Sansui Music system when I was 22 or so. There was a competition on the radio and I tried for more than 2 hrs to dial from a rotary phone to get the line. They kept on announcing that competition is still open as they had not found the right answer. In the end I got the line. My answer was correct and won the money enough to buy my first quality music system. I still have it, though I have up graded the amplifier.

2nd answer: on a radio show, i won a years supply of mens fruit of the loom underwear. i had underwear running out of my house. they sent me two cases of drawers....ha! still have some. 3rd answer: back in 1960, i won the complete top 40 songs from billboard magazine. some were dj copies and are very valuable today. will not sell. 4th answer: at a church social, i bought a $1.oo raffle ticket for a 19" color television. many months had passed and finally i met a friend who told me that i had won the tv. luckily, i still had my part of the winning ticket in my billfold. 5th answer: i won season tickets for the university of tennessee basketball season in a year i do not remember. i sold the tickets for $300. 6th answer: at a double bingo session, i won a hugh stereo system, complete with wood cabinets. really nice. I have been blessed and lucky.

Recently I won a jackpot of about $325 dollars in Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, I was pretty shocked. I bought a bicycle with the money. When I was little I used to always win 1rst place awards for my singing, and once I won the next Julie Andrews Award

I dont win crap.lol ive won maybe 50 bucks at the most in the casino.Honestly my luck just sucks.Now that i think about it,i did win 50 bucks on a scratch off,but never any more than 50 bucks ever.

$7500 on a $1 lottery ticket.

i won $10 off a sprite lid. i counted down the rows at a gas station to may daughters birthday. funny thing is the cashier didn't want to give it to me, he said i had to get it through the mail. i called the number on the back of the bottle and the guy said he had to give it to me. guy was none too happy.

I once won my friend Becky in a card game

I won 2 nights' Bed & Breakfast in a Jurys Inn hotel but sold it for £125. And i won the Queen of Disco Dancing in my local youth club in 1993! :)

I won 2 concert tickets to see The Police in 1982, along with all their albums. Yes, the vinyl kind. In 1982 when Missouri got the lottery. I bought a scratch off and won $82.00. I'm sure I have won other things, but I can't remember any more right now.

I won a gift certificate for a dinner for 2 from a local fundraiser raffle. I also once won a set of cosmetics at a raffle at a car show. And, I once won an autographed copy of a book, when I had attended an event given in honor of that author. I placed in a national exam when I was in high school, and won an award at graduation for excellence in one subject. I also won an award for recognition of volunteer service performed when I was in high school. When I was in 4th grade, I won the haunted house drawing contest - mine was pretty good, actually. I also won a Christmas poem contest that same year. I have probably won other things but that's all that comes to mind right now.

About 3 months ago i played a poker machine at a club, something i very rarely do. I won a jackpot of $600. Paid for the night out that is for sure.

A city beauty pageant

lots of small stuff. Lattes and key chains all the time from local radio stations, insulated travel coffee cups, bags of coffee, tee shirts, hats... Once won a cordless phone [when they first came out], a 32" color TV, and something else the same month (can't remember). Nothing REALLY big, but nothing to complain about either. Won a turkey & a 60 gig Hard drive, various software last year. Recently, an enclosed 60 gig hard drive [connect on the outside?], a web cam and mic. One of my twins took $900+ worth of stuff in the King Salmon Fishing Derby. Enter a lot of things, and living in a small town cuts the competition from millions to thousands.

I have won £10 on the national lottery a few times. Oh... here is a story. At a charity fair I won hundreds of pounds by mistake. We were supposed to win an empty wash-bag but for some strange reason they gave me one full of money... which my mum promptly took off me and returned in exchange for an empty wash-bag. (It was for charity after all.) The question is, why did they give me the money, surely they would have noticed that it was heavy?

Our local SPCA had a drawing to get your pet neutered for free. I won & got my cat fixed. She didn't like me much after that.

Once, really. A Salomon snowboard. It was awesome...considering I can't stay up on those blasted things.

in Contests/Sweepstakes: A bbq grill, a coleman cooler and lantern, (separately) grilling equipment, a radio. In local lotteries: $100 one time on scratch off about 1 year ago, $50 a month ago on a scratch off and I usuallly win $1-$5 on scratch offs every 1-2 weeks and I recoup my losses... I concentrate on which ticket has $ and I usually get it. But I cant for the life of me, come up with the winning lotto numbers for the evening.. Oh, and I won my husbands heart and still have it after 27 years! Support the return of the avatar: http://www.answerbag.com/.../111472

I have won heaps of things as my mum is a serious comper. My christmas presents used to be made up of prizes, every holiday was a prize (and we went on alot) now I am the comper and supplying prizes to everyone else :) My main prizes was a $10,000 shopping spree in MYER, and another $10,000 spree in KMART, a safari trip in Africa, Trip to Spain, and lots more.

I won first place in a literary contest last year.

I won a spelling bee in 6th grade, A 3 day trip to San Francisco that I never went on because they only paid for the flight and the hotel, and I was broke, and the lottery a few times. the most being about 20 dollars.

3 things stick out in my mind: I won a state science fair when I was 14 for building a working laser. I won a regional display contest when I worked for at a record store. I got a JVC portable CD player (big deal at the time!) and 25 CDs. And I won a pretty good sum of money at a casino in Niagara Falls. Enough to pay for a weekend shopping trip to NYC.

First place, newcommer international Waltz at I belive Ohio State competition. I'm not overly proud of that one though because what happened was my partner and I had always practiced American style Waltz and never international and we where bronze level in American Waltz. So we talked to the Judges about competing international both bronze and newcommer since we never practiced it. They cleared us to compete in Internaional Newcommer. Well we went out and did both bronze and newcommer (A lot of people do that) Well we got called back immediatly for the second round of BRONZE waltz which means we where in the top 50% of Bronze level. I immediatly felt bad because that means we where well above newcommer level if we can get a callback in bronze level. But we got our callbacks in Newcommer and we had to dance it and I wasn't about to throw the thing so we just went out there and did the stuff that was the same for both American and International. The problem was is that we had so much more practice at those moves that we totally spanked the competition who may have been practicing international the whole time but had only been practicing for a couple months and my partner and I had YEARS of experience in American Waltz and we where really really good. So we just simply blew the competition away because we have had years to practice our technique. We won unanimous first (first from all three judges) and blanked everyone else. I have several other awards from dancing although the one I am the most proud of I didn't even get a ribbon for because it was a team competition. And that was when I got 5th place in the team competition in Waltz at the National Collegate Dancesport Championships. My partner at the time was a freshman and we where the only people to even get called back in the team competition from our team.

This one hurt.....I won second prize in a 40 million$ lottery....which was 3000 bucks....sure I was happy to get it, but also very disappointed as well.

I won a blue ribbon for a reflective/creative writing contest in 9th grade. It was about the things a firefighter with a family has to go through, or what I would think, at that point in time. Also, the same year, I think, I won a contest for best drawing to commemorate the lost lives of September 11th, which I thought was really cool. I did it in the form of the picture of the soliders in Iwo Jima raising the American flag, except I changed it to Firefighters, Police Officers, and EMTs. It had a flag in the background and a faint outline of the towers behind the pentagon. Both of the guidelines for those required or encouraged patriotism. I won an essay writing contest and presented my essay to the state fair in 8th grade about resisting drug use. Those are the only good ones I can think of right now.

I've won $187 at a casino in Shreveport, a quilt in high school, two tickets to the fights in the Cajun Dome, two tickets to the Lynard Skynard concert, and several games of Bingo when I was a day camp councelor. Oh, and every game of Trivial Pursuit I have ever played.
