Restaurant surveys
I went to grab a sandwich at one of those quickie chains yesterday and on the back of  my receipt was a web site to go and take a survey based on my experience there.

I think that pretty much any place that offers takeout food now includes those on the receipt, always with the lure of being the big sweepstakes winner.

Even though I figure I'm about one percent more likely to win this than to win the lottery, I still find myself filling them out. Am I the only one looking for that $1,000 they give away every day?

I think that filling out surveys gets you on a mailing list, so I don't do them. My sister won a seven up vending machine once and then she won Marlboros grand prize of a vacation, so you don't want to listen to my advise.  I hate mailing lists and sales calls at 8 pm.

Almost all places seem to have these 'sweepstakes' now. Yesterday I recieved one on my recepit from autozone, one from Kmart and one from a fast food place. I always throw them in a pile by the PC and when I get bored enough I answer the little survey they want and enter. I bet the odds of winning are worse than the lottery-haha-but can't win if you don't play.

As far as I know you could be the only one.
