I heard about Iwon.com from a good friend of mine. It amazed me that she knew of a great site I'd never heard of since I'm on the Internet daily and she rarely uses her computer. Am I glad I listened!
Iwon.com is a homepage of sorts. It has everything you need in a basic homepage, plus you may win some awfully big cash prizes! You must register for this site with the typical information. Every aspect of the site that you use is assigned a point value, and you are able to collect 100 points a day. These points go toward daily, monthly and annual cash prizes! The current monetary value of these prizes are ten thousand, one million and twenty-five million dollars respectively. That is most certainly worth the ten minutes it takes me to earn my 100 daily points. In fact, it's the first thing I do each morning when I log on!
Don't think of Iwon as a chore, it has some very useful aspects to the site. It has a search engine, stock quotes, weather reports and so much more! When I first visited the site I was simply overwhelmed by the amount of information on the page, but in time I (and you will, too) developed favorite spots that I routinely click.
Like everyone else, Iwon offers a free email address with your registration. I actually have found this useful because my primary email, AOL, does not recognize spaces or paragraphs in articles I write in Microsoft Word. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but I own a cooking list to which I send daily recipes. I don't like to reformat the entire email, so I send it to myself via Iwon.com and it is formatted for me instantly!
My favorite thing about Iwon.com is, of course, the prizes. Aside from the daily prize money, you have a chance to play a Lotto game for vacation or vehicle prizes. You can pick 7 numbers or have the machine pick them for you. There is also a game called the Prize Machine and it resembles a Vegas Slot machine. You pull the lever (via your mouse!) and if you match all 3 windows, you get that prize. The prizes vary, but include cash, free spins and gift certificates to spend at various online stores. You can earn free spins by clicking on ads, too; very clever, IWon.com!
Virtual gambling just not your thing? This site is not all fluff! It also features four different types of News reports. The Top News section has the stories du jour for your perusal, while the Business News section features, well, business. The two other sections are for Sports and Entertainment. From the Entertainment section I've just learned that an actor was injured in a bar fight in North Carolina. We are so proud!
Still not convinced? There is a little section a few clicks down that has Iwon Tools emboldened across the box. From here you may access Yellow and White pages,
Maps and Directions, Tax Help, Credit reports, Calendars, Personal ads and a site map.
If you still aren't convinced, you must check out the Features. There is most assuredly something there for everyone. My favorites are the Celebrity Gossip, Food/Cooking, Home Decor, Fashion and Games. This section represents a multitude of interests.
To the question you are thinking right now, I'll answer honestly. No, I've never won anything here other than a few free spins. But, I've never won the lottery either, and people win those everyday; I know because you can check the lottery numbers from this site! Try it today, you, too will be hooked!
