I posted back in October about Little Debbie giving away 125,000 boxes of cupcakes. Well guess what arrived in my mailbox yesterday? A coupon for a free box of Little Debbie Cupcakes!
Now, for some of you who win stuff all the time (like my friend Amy who seems to win something just about every single week!), this might not seem too exciting. But for me–a person who has pretty much never won a giveaway of any sort in her life–it was very exciting! (We won't mention the fact that there were 125,000 winners so the odds were a little in my favor!)
It's only a free box of Little Debbie Cupcakes and I'll just be buying them and sharing them with friends, but the fact that I won, inspired me to consider trying my hand at more giveaways.
Maybe, just maybe, the tide is going to start turning. Probably not, but I'm going to be paying a lot closer attention to the giveaways posted over at Sweetie's Sweeps regardless.
Who knows? Maybe I'll win a truck next!
I got one, too! So cool, ’cause I kind of forgot about this. I love blessings in my mailbox! 🙂
Yea ~ congratulations!! 🙂
Enjoy your cupcakes ~ they’re tasty!
You’re adorable… congrats!
Love,

Yahoo…I’m going to my mail box in a minute…I hope I won too!! “smile’ I sent you something really cute for your girls to do with you for Thanksgiving…I suggest you print it out on cardstock though. I even had fun doing the place cards!!
Happy Thanksgiving Crystal,,,have a great day with your sweet young family.

I won too!!! I just got my coupon, and was totally jazzed. Hmm….maybe I’ll win the Target gift card (if my luck lasts…hehe!) (They’re giving away a $10,000 gift card – see http://www.Target.com/weeklyAd for details)
yay! congratulations!!
congratulations!!!!
I got one last week. We try to avoid most processed foods, but this was a treat!
Yay! I got one too! I totally forgot about even submitting the request. I am Gluten Free, but my husband isn’t, so he will be in HEAVEN to have “real” baked goods in the house!
I got mine yesterday as well. How fun.
Me too!!! So fun to get suprises in the mail!
Your excitement at winning is so cute, LOL! I’m also usually a “loser” so I can relate!! 😉
I won also! Yay!
I read your post quickly, and at first I thought you won 125,000 boxes of cupcakes! Glad you only won one of them. 🙂
Congrats, Crystal! I won, too! I packed them in my kids’ lunchboxes today – they loved them.
I got mine on Saturday, it’s it exciting. I completely forgot about it. My younger brothers and sisters are going to really enjoy these over Thanksgiving!
Ok, now that is too funny. But I am with you. I never win either and when I finally won something at a ladies retreat it was for a back massage. The ladies went crazy and I sighed….I don’t really do back massages. It was funny.
I won, too!! My dh is thrilled…he loves Little Debbies.
I also won…and I must say those are some good cupcakes!!
congrats! i got one too. i have never really won anything, so i understand the big deal. 🙂
Congrats! I got one, too! Woohoo!
i got one yesterday too! it was fun for the whole family! the kids are excited to get them for a treat sometime since they are not an item we normally purchase.
Congratulations! I hear you. I NEVER win anything either! Enjoy those cupcakes.
I won too, but haven’t gotten my coupon yet…they sent me an email that got stuck in my spam folder!
My husband and I each won! We got our boxes on Saturday. Enjoy!
I won too! Got my coupon 2 days ago! I also got my ziploc rebates in the mail yesterday. That surprised me because I just mailed them less than 2 weeks ago!
I am so happy for you! Winning anything for FREE is a total plus! I love the thrill, even if i end up takign them to my sons day care so they arn’t tempting me, I hope we win too!
thanks again for the tips you make so many moms happy!
Woohoo! Very exciting!
I won too! And this is the second time in my life I have won something! The first time was 22 years ago when I wont a smoke detector in 4th grade fire safety week. I am much mroe excited about the snack cakes!
I got my coupon yesterday! I was excited as well 🙂
i got 2 coupons yesterday and picked up my free cupcakes today!!
Me, too! It was in the mailbox today. I am so tickled! This must be a sign that my luck is changing. (Positive thinking at work!)
I won as well – the hubby was quite happy!
I won, too! Can’t wait to try them.
I got one too! The only time i ever won anything else was a plant. Kinda like giving a vegetarian a steak. But the cupcakes are right up my alley!
My husband and I had both signed up (without knowing the other had) and we just received two free box coupons in the mail today. 😀
I got mine today too! 😀 Yeee hawww! Cant eat em cause they arent GF giggles but I know someone who does and this will make her day. 😀
I got one in the mail yesterday! Congrats.
I got one too and the kids are so excited!
Got mine in the mail yesterday too!
Yay! I’m like you I never win…I would be totally excited, too. 🙂
Oh it is fun to win something isn’t it? Even more so when it’s a tasty little something 😉
Congrats!
We got ours yesterday and after I finished some early Christmas shopping, I picked mine up from Hyvee 🙂 Enjoy!
i won too!
got one today also 🙂
I got mine today! Not something we would typically buy but a nice freebie!
I got a coupon, too! 🙂
I have Freebies4Mom’s list of sweeps bookmarked, and try to enter at least a few of them several times a week. In the past year I have won gift cards from Nabisco, Wendy’s, Coke, and Kohl’s, as well as free product coupons from Pace, Dole, and now Little Debbie, and more. But that’s not all. . .
Just last week I won a $1000 Home Depot gift card from the Wendy’s Home Makeover sweeps!! It’s the first time I’ve ever won anything big enough to have to overnight a notarized affidavit to confirm my eligibility. I was nervous that my letter wouldn’t make it in time or I’d be disqualified for some reason or another, but it’s been approved and will hopefully show up soon.
So yes, spending a few extra minutes a couple times a week can pay off, thanks to Freebies4Mom and Sweetie’s Sweeps!
i guess i didnt win, huh? haha, there is always tomorrow’s mail to wait for 🙂
I got one too!! so cool.
Thanks for the link to the sweeps site. I ended up entering a few of them and won a $15 Best Buy Card thru the My Coke Rewards Instant Win Game. 😀
I won too!
I won a box too!! I never win anything either, but this one I did! I got the coupon Monday & they are already gone. Yum!!! Really, really delicious.
Yay! I got one too, which made it two free boxes, since they had a printable for one as well when we entered the promo. Very exciting!
Yay, you! You really ought to try to find time to enter some giveaways. Our Christmas is going to be free this year thanks to giveaways, and I’ve got some serious loot for the kids. All told, I’ve won about $6000 worth of stuff this year. You probably wouldn’t have time to do that, but I’ve made something of a supplemental income out of it. Food is my favorite thing to win. Well, and the occasional laptop!
Thanks to your post I also won a coupon!
Mine arrived in my mailbox yesterday too! I love giveaways!
Yum – those remind me of when I was pregnant – I don’t usually buy those but when I was preggo all I could think about was those cupcakes! …and peanut butter…
Have fun – congratulations
Crystal,
My first win was from your blog! It was for Foccacia chips (or something like that) a year ago and I was so excited! Sometimes it is the little things that brighten the day!
ooh I hope they are still sending them out and that I won lol. Congrats! 🙂
Me, too!! I’d forgotten about it but it’ll be a nice little treat!
My coupon arrived in the mail yesterday, but I couldn’t find the cupcakes in the store today! 🙁
lol! I thought for a moment that you won 125000 boxes of cupcakes 🙂
Congratulations on your one box. It is fun to win these things.
I won too! Thanks for posting.
Congratulations!! This post reminded me–whatever happened to the blog contest you were a part of. I don’t remember reading how it ended. I hope you won!
A win is a win is a win they say. Congratulations on yours Crystal. I guess I like winning prizes more than saving money on groceries but I bet you save as money as I do with my wins so it all works out about even. And, winning takes patience and time. What you do gets immediate results. But, hey, it’s all good right 🙂
I just won my second trip of the year. My son is going to the SEC Football Championship with Dad VIP style next week and he’s thrilled. And, in two weeks we leave for our trip to Florida. I definitely love winning sweepstakes and it’s been a very good year – about $14,000 total in prizes.
Keep up the good work and thanks for the “link love.”
Wendy
P.S. I got my Little Debbie cupcake coupon too 🙂
Mine came today!
I won too! YEAH! However, it is just my luck to win a box of cupcakes instead of that 50 million lottery ticket;) Oh well, my little boy will think he won the lottery since I don’t ever buy these!
I got one too! Yay!
I won too! I was SUPER excited when I got that in the mail!
Congratulations! I won too!

Yippee — I got one too 🙂 Lovely Thanksgiving gift !
Congrats! I also won cupcakes =) my postcard/coupon arrived recently (I’m in WI)
I felt the same way to when I received mine in the mailbox. I never seem to win anything, and like you, I too also forgot about entering this drawing.
