Free2WinGames.com: Oodles of FREE opportunities to win cash!!

Today’s post focuses on instant win games & sweepstakes hosted by our lovely free-to-win sites! (Click “Game Sites” in the menu bar to see the full list.) Some of the sites also offer progressive jackpots that you can win by playing their games, but that isn’t what we’re dealing with here. These are all instant win games or sweeps that run all year long!

The info is organized into handy-dandy tables, complete with direct links to the games so you don’t have to dig to find them. And yes, the links will pop up in a new window, so you can enter and come right back here to enter the next thing. ^_^ (Note: If you aren’t currently logged in to that site, you’ll need to log in before you can do much of anything.)

Not sure what to do with this info? Here are a few suggestions on what you could do.

Use the tables as a checklist – Maximize your odds of winning by completing the Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly, and Random Drawing tables.
Improve your efficiency – If you want to focus solely on the biggest prizes or find out where you have the best chance of winning, we have tables for you too!
Make sure you aren’t missing anything! – Most sites only have a handful of games or sweeps, but IWON, Gamesville and Spigo all have a LOT of ways to win things!

IMPORTANT!!!

If you live in the United States then you can enter all of the games/sweeps/drawings listed on this page. If you live elsewhere, please consult this list first to find out which sites you can win on! (Link opens in a new window.)

Once you do that come back here and figure out what applies to you. ^_^

Best Chance to Win – Find out where you have the best chance to win something! (Note: You are never guaranteed to win. It sucks, but that’s reality!)

Daily Shtuff

These are games, scratchcards, and sweeps that you can do every day! FreeSlots is the odd one because technically it’s a monthly sweeps program. But since you can only submit 10 tickets a day, it’s better to make it part of your daily routine.

Some of the games have multiple prizes and/or winners. Please note that if you win, you’ll only get one of the prizes!! You don’t get the whole list. ^_^

Entries are organized alphabetically by site name. Clicking a game link will open up a new window so you can take care of business. Clicking a site name will take you to the Free2WinGames’ review of that site, so you can learn more about it.

Yearly Sweepstakes

Super short list! ^_^ I really had to dig in to figure out why IWON lists the prize as “up to $1,000,000!” It turns out that if you win, there’s a second drawing to find out what your prize is. You have a 99 in 100 chance of winning $100,000 and a 1 in 100 chance of winning $1,000,000.

Even at $100,000 it’s still the biggest free-to-win prize that I’ve found, but I dislike the slightly deceptive wording on the site. But anywho, if you want to enter, click the “Sweeps” link below!

Method	Site	Prize
Sweeps	IWON	$100,000 OR $1,000,000

Random Drawing

Playtopia is the only contender in this category. Instead of having sweeps, they just have random drawings. You can also schedule it to buy tickets for you, which is interesting. I imagine it’s a good way to keep from missing out on a new drawing!

Clicking the game name will take you to the Playtopia ticket shop, where you buy *drumroll* tickets. ^_^

Quick Jackpot (Blue Tickets)	Playtopia	$10-$30
Extra Jackpot (Red Tickets)	Playtopia	$30-$100
Super Jackpot (Green Tickets)	Playtopia	No max $9,195 as of 1/12/11

If you’re looking for the biggest free-to-win prizes around, this is the table for you! All of these prizes are valued at $500 or more.

When you’re looking at the prizes also look to see how often winners are picked. The time frames have a huge variety! For example, a $1000 prize might be awarded daily, weekly, monthly, or totally at random, depending on which site you visit!

Best Chance to Win

To figure out where you have the best chance to win a prize, I combined two aspects: website traffic and how often a winner is picked. (Traffic stats are from November 2010.)

You always have better odds with sweeps that end quickly, because people don’t have as much time to enter them. And you have better odds on smaller sites, because you have less competition overall.

Think of it this way. Slingo got 360k unique visitors in November, and they gave out 60 daily prizes in that time.

60 daily prizes / 360k visitors = 1 daily prize / 6k visitors

also known as

1 daily prize per 6,000 visitors

This sorta gives you an idea of how many people are competing for one prize. However, since we’re dealing with sweeps here, these are not the actual odds of winning!!!

The actual odds are determined by how many tickets are purchased. So! Even though I can’t give you the exact odds, I can give you an idea of how much competition you’re up against.

The Gamesville games with a single winner each day have been lumped into a daily sweeps category. The games are linked individually, of course!

Site	Game	Prize	Prize per monthly Visitors
BugleGames	Monthly Sweeps	$25 Amazon certificates	1 per 500
Gamesville	Daily Sweeps Frantic Fish Hot Streak Solitaire Pit Stop Slots Super Chef Full Boil	$10 (SCFB & HSS) $25 (DS, FF & PSS)	1 per 2,240
Slingo	Daily Sweeps	$50	1 per 6,000
FreeSlots	Monthly Sweeps	$250-$500	1 per 40,500
GSN Oodles	Daily Sweeps	$250	1 per 67,000
Gamesville	Weekly Sweeps	$100	1 per 84,000
Slingo	Weekly Sweeps Merchandise Sweeps	$200	1 per 90,000
Slingo	Monthly Sweeps	$1,000	1 per 120,000
