Editorial Review: Product Description: Author Carol Shaffer has won countless contests and sweepstakes as a contest hobbyist. She's won a new luxury automobile, a $10,000 shopping spree, a trip to the Olympics in Australia, and much, much more. In fact, her winnings total more than $150,000! In Contest Queen Carol shares her successful gimmicks and strategies for winning. Anyone can do it, if they know how to go about it. Contest Queen gives the nuts and bolts of how to win-from national contests, to local in-store drawings. It tells the reader how to find the best contests, what judges look for, and how to create the winning entry. It explains how to get on TV game shows, and how to make Internet contesting pay off. It even goes into how contesting for children can make the hobby of contesting fun for the whole family. Contest Queen is an invaluable reference tool for any contest and sweepstakes enthusiast, or for anyone who has ever dreamed of winning. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - You are a winnerWhen I was looking for a book on sweepstakes this is the one I found and it helped me start my hobby. I loved the detail that Carol shared and the distinction she made between sweepstakes and contest. The book really helped to get me started and encouraged me with the stories of what she had won. It made the whole sweepstakes concept easy and fun. Rating:  - DisappointingI was disappointed in this book. Although she does give some good tips, they could all have fit into less than two pages. The rest of the book consisted of lists prizes she's won and famous people she's met. Boring! Rating:  - Poor editingThe editor of this book either must have been in a hurry when working on this book or has no business in the field of literature. There are numerous grammatical structure errors and word misspellings, i.e. Bush [sic] Stadium should be Busch Stadium. In another paragraph a reference is made to bugs bunny [sic] then in the next sentence it is spelled correctly as Bugs Bunny. I see the book nothing more than a list of prizes that she won and how she won them. Rating: - "It's A Winner"What a fun book! Easy to read and lots of information on how to win contests and sweepstakes. To date I have won a pair of airline tickets, a $50 gift card, and lessons at a cooking school. Now I'm hooked and I can't wait to enter other contests/sweepstakes. It is so easy using Carol's techniques and most exciting when you win a prize. The book is also interesting with Carol telling about her experiences meeting celebrities. I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to find a new and exciting ...
