iwon is one of the sweepstakes sites I visit every day because entering is quick and easy and the prizes are likely to be paid if I win. Each link on the iwon web site has a number next to it. That is the number of entries that you will get for clicking on the link. Most of links are worth 3 to 5 entries, although some are worth as many as 7. You can earn up to 100 entries per day towards daily, weekly, monthly and annual prize drawings ranging from $10,000 to $10,000,000. To be entered in the weekly drawing you must have at least 300 entries that week. There are also monthly bonus prizes that you can enter separately and multipliers are available for responding to offers.
Here are a couple of tips and tricks. Although it's not marked, the back button gives you 2 entries. You can use the same links over and over if you want to. I usually answer the daily survey, read a couple of news headlines, then click through the news header repeatedly until I have my 100 entries for the day. The news sections are convenient because they are worth 5 entries and the headings stay in the same place so I can click, wait for the page to reload, and click again without moving the mouse.
An upside to this web site is that is is backed by CBS. There is no doubt that they can afford to pay the prizes they advertise for the foreseeable future.
A downside to iwon is that it is very popular. The entries are pooled like picking out of a hat. It is very unlikely that any one entry will win.
I recommend this site because it is quick and easy to use for the number of entries available and the payout is guaranteed if you win. However, don't expect to win any time soon. This web site also has links to shopping and searching that you may find useful.
