I don’t mean those spam “You won a $10,000 Amazon gift card” popovers. I mean the daily give always on the Amazon site. I diligently click the prize box whenever I see it even if it’s for something I will never need. Never won.
Never won. I want to though. I check every time I go on.
Huh, I’ve had Amazon Prime for years, place a few orders each week, but have no idea what y’all are talking about.
Uh huh. This is news to me.
I’ve seen those prize boxes during black friday but I only click on the ones I wnt and have never won anything. I didn’t know they did it the rest of the year though.
Add me to the Prime customer who’s never heard of it list.
Another long time Prime member who never heard of this. Any chance of a link or further explanation?
And another one!
Another Prime member that’s never heard of it. I do remember the “Deal of the Day” icon that sat at the top of the page and looked like a treasure chest. But it was never a prize, just an item (usually a DVD?) that was on sale.
I also only saw this during the holiday season. Sometimes you had to view a video ad in order to be entered for a chance to win something. I think it usually told you immediately if you won or not. Consolation prize was usually a discount on whatever the item was. Definitely seemed to be mixed in with the deal of the day, lightning deal type stuff.
ETA: Here’s an article about it. Oh yeah, maybe it was only in the app…
Another ETA:
Oh yeah! There was one in the app. A ‘giveaway’ button with a chance to win a projector. (didn’t win)
I work there and I never heard of it either. Which probably makes the odds better for the folks who have?
I found it on the regular site too. Just search for ‘giveaway’
I’ve had Prime since it started, make the majority of my non-grocery purchases there and also have no idea what they’re talking about.
I did this and found the give away page and thus far I have not won any of the 12 things I’ve tried (including the projector).
I’m reasonably sure I’m not hallucinating.
Just now I failed to win a goose down comforter. For those who have not seen it, it’s also a sales pitch. Once you are told you didn’t win you have the opportunity to buy it at a reduced price.
I’ve been getting the giveaways emails for many months now, clicked on probably hundreds of chances to win, and won nothing. I’m guessing there are just so many people on Amazon now that the odds of winning anything are low.
Not me. I wouldn’t be surprised if my daughter-in-law has, though. She is relentless on deals and all manner of internet things, and uses some methods that I suspect are illegal to get them.
When I go into Amazon it pops right up. Sometimes you have to watch a short video to get a chance to enter. A lot of times there’s a discount associated with the entry. It doesn’t really matter I never win anything. Alas.
Yes. I won a small blue tooth speaker last March. Keep at it. Sometimes dreams do come true.
Giveaways. Not prizes. Yes, they are there, and no, I gave up trying after months of daily clicking.
