**Hope this is the right folder **

I've won door prizes for small stuff lots of times, can't even begin to remember them all.

BUT, my mother played the lottery when I was young (she's not a Christian) and got 5 of 6 numbers correctly. It was very very close. The number she got wrong and needed was 12 and instead of it she had a 13! (That's supposedly an unlucky number, LOL!)

She was happy, but mad too that she could have won like 8 million. Instead, she won around 140K I think.

She still plays to this day.

The fast food joint was celebrating their "anniversary" and I was the lucky (certain number customer) in the drive-thru. Of course I didn't know I'd won until after I'd placed my order and was about to pay.

Status: offline 		I won a Jeep when I was 19 (from a radio station, car dealership and Coca~Cola) that I sent in 27 entry forms for. I've won a lot of "little things" over the years (door prizes, etc.), but nothing recently (within the last few years).

My hubby is always winning things at work like a crockpot (which I needed at the time-perfect timing), rechargable drill, a big canister full of gumballs, gift certificates, etc. At the company Christmas party last year he won a big Gingerbread family yard ornament. The year before he won a big snowman snowglobe that plays Christmas music and "snows."

My mom won $1,000 back in March or April (I think that's the first thing she ever won). She got that through a local advertising "magazine."

I take that back...I just remembered...I won a couple of things at a basket bingo fundraiser last November and several months before that. I ended up giving them as a gift to my friend who loves that stuff (Longaberger).

Status: offline 		I was going to say no but reading through these I remember winning a dryer (or was it a decent amount of money we used for a dryer) at a local appliance store.... about 35 years ago. Maybe that's why I thought my answer was no.
