    Default $50,000 Sweepstakes for Surveys - Legit?

    OK, has anyone ever actually won this $50,000 contest we're supposedly entered into when we complete a daily survey? It seems fishy to me - how do we even know it exists? Can we see a list of winners? etc....

    If you go to the Greenfield website you'll be able to track down some of the winners there. There are also pictures and bios of some of them. There's also a map listing locations of winners.

    I don't do the surveys in the hopes of winning the $50,000. I do the surveys so I can build up my SR account and have lots of money to cash out with. I got a $200 card in this week's cash out and $50 in the one from July. I also plan on getting some Disney Dollars and other gift cards (Wendys and others) for our Christmas trip.

    The $50,000 is from Greenfield NOT Sunshine Rewards and I am sure if we read all THEIR fine print the prize is probably given out once every 10 years and then the winnings would be divided out for 40 years.!!!!

    Sunshine Rewards is a wonderful company to deal with but they do not have anything to do with the Greenfield prize(or lack of)


    I would suppose you could go to Greenfield's website directly and ask for all that info if you really want it.

    I've wondered about this myself! I've often wondered how often Greenfield actually awards a prize in that contest and whether or not there would be an announcement if an SR member won (it would be neat to hear that a member on this site had won, even if it wasn't me ).

    I had to edit this tons to get it to go through but here is the info from their website

    Greenfield Online $50,000 Sweepstakes/

    Grand Prize Drawing





    Official Rules



    NO PURCHASE NECESSARY.


    1. Introduction. Greenfield Online $50,000 Sweepstakes (the "Sweepstakes") is sponsored by ePrize, LLC, One ePrize Drive, Pleasant Ridge, MI 48069 ("Sponsor"). The Sweepstakes is offered in conjunction with multiple companies ("Promoters") through different Web sites ("Creative Presentations"), announcing many different prizes. The Promoter for this particular Creative Presentation is Greenfield Online Company,21 River Road, Wilton CT 06897 (“Greenfield”). One (1) winner will be selected in a random drawing from among all eligible entries received across all Creative Presentations. The prize for which an entrant is eligible depends on the Creative Presentation through which the entrant entered the Sweepstakes.

    ONLY ONE (1) GRAND PRIZE ACROSS ALL CREATIVE PRESENTATIONS WILL BE AWARDED IN THE SWEEPSTAKES.

    2. Timing. The Sweepstakes begins on October 1, 2007 at 12:00 a.m. Eastern Time ("ET") and ends on December 31, 2007 at 11:59 p.m. ET("Promotion Period"). Various Creative Presentations may be added throughout the Promotion Period. Greenfield’s computer is the official time-keeping device for this Sweepstakes



    For all entries: Limit: Each participant may enter the Sweepstakes one (1) time per day during the Promotion Period, regardless of method of entry used. Even if you participate in more than one (1) survey per day, you will receive only one (1) Sweepstakes entry per day. Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same email address. Any attempt by any participant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations and logins or any other method will void that participant's entries and that participant may be disqualified. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any registration, the authorized account holder of the email address used to register will be deemed to be the registrant or player. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. The potential winner may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder.


    You may enter the Grand Prize Drawing through as many Creative Presentations as you like.

    5. Selection of Potential Winner. Sponsor will randomly select one (1) Promoter's Creative Presentation from among all Creative Presentations and Sponsor will then select one (1) potential Grand Prize Winner from among all eligible entries received through the selected Creative Presentation, on or about January 31, 2008. The potential winner must comply with all terms and conditions of these Official Rules; winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements. Except where prohibited, potential winner (or parent/legal guardian if winner is a minor in his/her place of residence) must execute and return to the Sponsor, within ten (10) days of being notified, an Affidavit of Eligibility, Liability & Publicity Release in order to claim his/her prize. If a potential winner has not reached the age of majority in his/her home state, the prize will be awarded in the name of his/her parent or legal guardian. If a potential winner cannot be contacted within ten (10) days of the first attempt to contact him/her or if he/she fails to sign and return the Affidavit of Eligibility, Liability & Publicity Release within the required time period, an alternate entrant will be selected in his/her place at random from among all eligible entries received for the selected Creative Presentation. Only three (3) alternate drawings will be held, after which the prize will remain un-awarded. Prize will be fulfilled eight (8) to ten (10) weeks after winner verification.

    6. Prize. One (1) Grand Prize will be awarded. The prize for which an entrant is eligible depends on the Creative Presentation through which he/she entered. Accordingly, the Grand Prize for a winner who entered through this Creative Presentation will be $50,000. No substitution, assignment or transfer of prize permitted, except by Sponsor and Promoters, who reserve the right to substitute the prize with another prize of greater or equal value. Winner is solely responsible for any and all applicable fees and taxes associated with prize receipt and use. The odds of this Creative Presentation being selected depend on the total number of Creative Presentations. If this Creative Presentation is selected, the odds of winning depend on the number of entries received through this Creative Presentation.

    7. Publicity. Except where prohibited, participation in the Sweepstakes constitutes winner's consent to Sponsor’s and Promoter's use of winner's name, likeness, voice, opinions, hometown and state for promotional purposes in any media without further payment or consideration.


    9. Release. By receipt of any prize, winner agrees that Sponsor and Promoters (including but not limited to Greenfield), their respective parents, subsidiaries and affiliated companies, and the agents, employees, directors and officers of these companies, are not liable whatsoever for any injuries, losses or damages of any kind resulting in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, from the acceptance, possession, use or misuse of any prize or from winner's participation in the Sweepstakes.

    10. Limitations of Liability. Sponsor and Promoters (including but not limited to Greenfield Online Company) are not responsible for: (1) incorrect or inaccurate transcription of entry information or late, lost, stolen, illegible, incomplete, misdirected or postage-due entries or entries received through impermissible or illegitimate channels, all of which will be disqualified; (2) technical failures of any kind, including but not limited to the malfunctioning of any telephone, computer, network, hardware or software; (3) the unavailability or inaccessibility of any Web site or service; (4) unauthorized human intervention in any part of the entry process or the Sweepstakes; (5) electronic or human error which may occur in the administration of the Sweepstakes or the processing of entries; (6) late, lost, undeliverable, damaged or stolen mail; or (7) any injury or damage to persons or property, including but not limited to entrant's computer, which may be caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from entrant's participation in the Sweepstakes or from downloading any material from Sponsor's or Promoter's Web site(s), regardless of whether the material was prepared by Sponsor, Promoter or a third party, and regardless of whether the material is connected to Sponsor's or Promoter's Web site by a hypertext link. If, for any reason, an entrant's entry is confirmed to have been erroneously deleted, lost, or otherwise destroyed or corrupted, entrant’s sole remedy is another entry in the Sweepstakes, provided that, if it is not possible to award another entry due to discontinuance of the Sweepstakes, or any part of it, for any reason, Sponsor, in its sole discretion, may elect to hold a random drawing from among all eligible entries received up to the date of discontinuance for any or all of the prizes offered herein. No more than the stated number of prizes will be awarded. In the event that production, technical, seeding, programming or any other reasons cause more than the stated number of prizes as set forth in these Official Rules to be available and/or claimed, Sponsor reserves the right to award only the stated number of prizes by a random drawing among all legitimate, un-awarded, eligible prize claims.

    As with any contest or (lottery) you put in your 2 cents worth. Who Knows ?Maybe your name or number will be next!

    We did have two SR winners win the National Thank You Day contest that we were advertising a couple of months back. One of them is going to get to be on the Rachel Ray show!
