Sweepstakes 101

Ok so you want to win a prize or two.

The very first thing you need to do is set up an email address that you can enter and get emails from, but be prepared for tons of spam that you will have to weed through on a regular basis.

A couple of good sites are yahoo, hotmail, mail.com, and gmail. these offer free easy to use email. Gmail offers free POP email accounts.

After you have your free email address, it is time to prepare your self, in order to win a prize, you have to enter a sweepstakes, contest, or what ever.

In order to enter you have to give out personal information.

*Your first and last name
* Your Home address
* your City, State, and zip code
* Your Email address
* and yes your phone number (I can give you a few ways around this, but be prepared to give it out)
* Your Birthday (yes there is a REAL LEGIT reason they need this)
* NEVER GIVE OUT SSN, BANK INFO, OR OTHER REAL PERSONAL STUFF LIKE THIS
