Have they stated anywhere that they have a winner yet?
According to the rules they're going to notify the winner via e-mail but if the winner doesn't respond within 5 days they forfeit the prize.

Re: \"The Polar Express\" Boomer

I know there is gambling comminssion that look over some of this stuff, but I can't help to wonder sometimes on how many of these promotions actually get something to a winner? Just me wondering I guess.

Here the winner has 5 days to reply, so if he is on vacation or just if the email turns out to be wrong or mis-typed there is no prise. Who's mailing list are we all now on?

I probable opened up a big debate here and this is not intended but I really do wonder sometimes.

First, I am sure there are plenty of state laws that require a prize be awarded. Second, getting your email address is exactly why they do this. Thirty years ago, they wanted your mailing address. If you don't want them to have it, either don't enter the contest, or get a throwaway email address at hotmail or yahoo, something you couldn't do 30 years ago. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
