What's the trick to winning prizes

I feel the same way most of the time. I won once and was so excited. I only put tickets on items that I really want no everything.

The odds are tremendously against almost everyone who plays these games.

However, a few years ago, one’s chances were a tad better. Remember when there were 4 PAGES of prizes available each week?

That dwindled down to one page of prizes that are often pathetic.

I’ve been playing for many years & have never won. I love playing the games & hope maybe one day. Winning would be a bonus but even if I never won, I would still play the games. I guess it really is the luck of the draw.

…like they say”you can Hope to win,just don’t Expect it”. I say you can’t win if you don’t enter.I have won a few times($25) gift card for questions that were posed in the community forum,a few years back..never the Big win $250! I did see where a player won that prize in Nov. as well as Dec…they are very lucky HSN does not limit your chances by keeping your entry out of the running for a certain amount of time.Congrats shepherdess!!

I played games for years and never won a prize until four or five years ago on the jigsaw. You need to have perseverance . On most games I found that you have to be in the top 50-100 to have your name entered. With more and more of us playing in the arcade these days, it will probably take me years before I win anything again. However, that won’t stop me. I enjoy the arcade and playing relaxes me so I can return to other things more pressing a little while later. Keep playing, You never know when you will receive that e-mail stating, ” CONGRATULATIONS, YOU WON.”

Another week and no win for me! What’s the deal?

Ask the people who wins every other week. they sure know how to win.

If it gives you hope, I have only won anything ONCE in all of the years I have been doing this, and it wasn’t an arcade raffle, it was for commenting on a host post here in the community. It was truly a wonderful surprise. I won a $25 HSN Gift Certificate, which I used but they were the real winners as my order was a pretty big one, so I saw my win as more of a discount, LOL! Here’s hoping 2020 brings us all a little luck.

I wonder why I don’t win either. I play, like the games but it is disheartening when my name never shows up. I freely use my tickets to hopefully win a prize but have not. Let’s hope 2020 will bring some of us nonwinners a change of luck!

The Arcade Games are bait for HSN to get shopping traffic to their sites.. It is a global online retailer. It is perfectly legal for them to do it. The problem is the bait turns into being a lottery. A game of chance. Normally a “lucky” person will win from time to time as with any games of chance. The illegal part of this equation is: 1. Computer bots and seasoned hackers playing against humans. If you see a player with millions of points in games on a daily basis,, 10 times out of 10 they are bots/hackers. This makes them guaranteed winners of prizes. 2. Rogue Company employees. Arcadium, HSN, & QVC rogue employees can manipulate the games in their favor. If you win at all as a human, you are very lucky. IMHO opinion, if you just enjoy playing arcade games for fun, then all these games can be played anywhere on the internet, but if you want to win prizes these days this is one of the places, but the odds are tremendously against you here.

Your not doing anything wrong. The trick is luck. I have never won been playing for a very long time. Think of it like the lottery. You have to be in it to win it. But your chances are really slim to none. With that said I wish you a very happy new year with a side of good luck:)
