I went in on an office lottery thing, we won 20k, ended up being about 500 ea. In takehome But still nice, it was mostly about the thrill of winning more than the winnings themselves, it was my first time buying in. I also won a 400 dollar smart watch at a work raffle.

Sports gambling. Won idk around 60 euros maybe more and stopped. 60 euros for someone in highschool in country where euro was not used is a lot.

I won a poetry competition when I was 15, but submitted the poem for my little bro. He ended up winning, getting in the local paper, getting published in a book, meeting a big celebrity for a photo etc.

Never won any award with my own two books, which I spent a lot more time on!

Just some minor nonsense. But all of it yields a fun memory.

I won a hat from a Wario Ware (Wii) tournament at my country's biggest nerd-convention circa 2009. Got like a 15 minigame lead on the second place too.

I won a(n imported, we're brazilian, these were never published here) copy of a My Little Pony Comic Omnibus from a giveaway at an MLP forum I participated in some 10 years ago. I never read the physical comic, it just sits untouched at my shelf. I just read the pirated .cbr

A few months later my SO won a Hot Topic Vinyl Figure of Princess Luna (also imported) from another giveaway at the same forum, and gifted it to me.

F'n fruitbasket when I was about 10. Nothing after that. Although I don't usually participate.

I won a keg of beer on the entry ticket to a local beer festival.

A local hotel/chateau had organised it. They had failed with their marketing, and managed to pick the same weekend as a much larger beer festival in the same city.

I got ticket #26 on day 1, Saturday. I don't think they sold more than ten tickets after me that day. I walked past with my dogs the following day and there were like four people there.

Oh, and I also won the demo competition at a local demoparty. First prize was a bag of chips and a brush for doing dishes.

And the 64k intro competition at the biggest demoparty at the time. First prize was a big-ass box of sponsored hardware - graphics cards and processors and stuff.

I won an Xbox 360 a long time ago from a Coca Cola competition. You had to use codes from the bottle caps and then quickly answer some quiz questions correctly. But you had unlimited tries. So I just kept clicking random answers quickly until I got all questions right at a ridiculously low time.

Good times. Borrowed Guitar Hero, LA Noire, Batman Arkham Asylum and Red Dead Redemption at the library, had a blast.

I won the lottery to be conceived.

0/10 would not recommend

I won The Game.

I believe you all lost.

nothing lifechanging and not much is memorable. Only thing I can remember actually is a rocking chair. I do not enter things very often.

My phone service provider used to do daily roulette type giveaways.

I won a free return flight to basically anywhere in Europe.

I actually never did anything with it, because at the time I couldn't afford to pay for someone else to go with me (I would have gone with my partner).

I regret not just flying on my own, but them's the rubs - I was, and am, a bit of an idiot.

I also once won a game key by making a funny YouTube comment on a Unit Lost video once too - but I never used that either; it wasn't a game I was interested in, I just liked to watch the vids for a bit of a laugh.

I don't win much, but when I do I squander my wins.
