Re: 20th Century Fox $75K sweepstakes

If I ever do get a winner, hope my prize isn't the movie I just matched 3 of on the scratch card. Haven't seen one yet that I'd want/need.

I'm trying not to get discouraged. After all, I have 8+ months of chances left!

This game sucks and if those movies are the prizes then no thanks. I've played it about ten times and had the same card half of those tries. I'm not even bothering with it anymore.

I won squat. They should at least change the cards or have more interesting movies on them.

Re: 20th Century Fox $75K sweepstakes

I found this info online

Grand Prize: (1 winner) $75,000
First Prize: (76 winners) Blu-ray release of a motion picture (ARV $24)
Second Prize: (76 winners) DVD release of motion picture (ARV $14)
Third Prize: (153 winners) Poster selected by sponsor (ARV $5)

If this game goes on until december and those are the prizes and number of winners ... Chances of scoring a winning card is well you can do the math
More than likely with those numbers how it goes down is One winner per day i assume.

Terrible contest and some of the shitties movies they could offer. I guess if you get 3 Silver Streaks you're guaranteed a dvd.

Another loss for me today. But I did get a card with My Cousin Vinny on it. First time seeing that.

Did it for a week or so - and nothing. I'm done and finished with it. As Black Willow once said: "Bored now."

I think if they had different movies it might have held my interest, but who the hell picked those titles?

Those are the titles that represent their 75th Anniversary?

Same, but it would be nice to get some different covers.

I must be doing something wrong. I can't get my time under 5 1/2 seconds.

I bet my winning card was yesterday, the day this didn't get bumped and I forgot to play.

Also, I've grown tired of the silly coin scratch thing, so I just click 'click here if you don't see the card' to get my bad news immediately.

The odds are winning are ridiculous. 306 total prizes? That's IT?!?!?!?!?! I think they can afford to give out more than that. No wonder nobody in this thread has won anything yet...
