Just a thought here...

Could Oprah have a filter so that the board sites such spoofee illiminates entries to avoid overwhelming responses?

cut and pasting the link into a new web browser might be the way to go from now on.

I still think this is what happened.

I doubt it. If this was the case. then I should have definitely gotten one, I entered through the email sent by Oprah. had I seen it on here first, probably would have entered thru here.

Even if this was the case someone still would have posted somewhere on the net that they have received one. I found my name on there but wrong zipcode.
I think this list is bogus, just not buying that anything was sent out.
 
Just heard back from my mom and she said she never received anything.

Well then....who's heading this investigation? :spy: Pat? :yesnod: :rofl: This is getting more suspicious! I do have a question though. Some people are posting that their name is on there, but the zip isn't their zipcode. A question to those individuals - How do you know it's your name? I mean, if I saw my name, which isn't that common, I wouldn't assume it was me, unless every last detail matched. I'm just curious. Maybe we are all really unlucky this go around and are reading into this thing too much. Just a thought. :confused:
 
This whole thing reminds me of the fiasco with the McDonald's Monopoly... where the ones running the game won all the prizes... :thinking: Whoever the Oprah people paid to run the contest and ship everything out probably took the loot and ran off with the shipping $..

Do you really believe that's the case and no one has stepped up and said they received a tote :thinking:, I'm sorry I just don't believe it. I don't even care if I won a tote anymore, I'm just not buying whatever oprah's selling here with this list and this contest. :thinking:

This is what oprah can go do :thefinger:

I bet you do! :croc: :rofl: :rofl:
 
remember....20/20 this Friday, 10 pm EST. get the scoop....and the tote.
 
Anyone have the Secret Decoder Ring?

I mean the one that you need to read this winners list . . . !

I think it is not a real list, or things are skewed so that no one will know if they are a winner or not . . .

But since no one has posted that they got one or what is in it, I am
just echoing others posts . . . I think no one got any of these totes.

Booo Oprah!

4 digit zips? The leading 0 is getting dropped in the database. Allure just had this same problem with Moshino.

Oh, I've never won an Oprah tote and there are more Eva's on there than I've ever seen on a list before. Something is off here.

It was obvious to me that the zero was just dropped--but it wasn't only the Moschino. I received quite a few Allure prizes with 4-digit zips this year. It seems a lot of their winners lists just didn't print out the zero, and the people who sent out the prizes didn't correct the labels. On a few, they did add the zero by hand.

This list is highly suspicious, and anytime I've gotten one in the past, it did have the last name spelled out as well as the town. There's just not enough information to actually complain--plus I think the names and zips are mixed up (probably on purpose). This is just not an accurate list.
 
I also got the winner's list today & it is a very long list.
There are dup names & off zipcodes that dont make sense
at all. Then the names are not in alphabetical order so that tells
us there that this list is very suspicious. There are no winners in
my zipcodes & no one that I know of won either. So who are these
people on there or are they make believe names? How weird is this.:confused::nonod:
 
To be honest if it was people on just one site I wouldn't think anything of it.. but not anyone who posts on any internet site won ? Sorry that's alot of sites... a whole lot of people... That's what makes me think ODD... more so than the zips etc. Granted there are a bunch of people who follow her like the second coming.. but.....nobody? Esp. when somebody from here or SD wins something from pretty much every other contest...
 
I sent an email but do you think I've even received a response?????? Nooooooo..Time to think of BBB??????????? Maybe??????????? what do you all think????????? They're not adhearing to their own rules..one entry per person..can't be if you have Mary B in zipcode 53150 winning 4x!
 
Maybe someone should post this winners list on Oprah's facebook and tell her this list is fishy and needs to be investigated.


I tried to copy the list from the pdf into word but the print came out very tiny and no matter what I tried I couldn't get bigger.
 
where did the person on s.d. get this from? I haven't read all the posts over yonder.

I am so confused by this~how is anyone assuming that Mary B in that zip is the same person? Without last names there is really no way to tell and even with them you would never know. At our last address there were two women on our street with the exact same full name and were no relation what so ever.

I think it is too bad that it appears that the company that executed this sweepstakes for Oprah did not handle it in the good faith everyone has experienced in the past but I think there is way too much energy being invested in this at this point.

It was a sweepstakes with a chance to win something fun~no one paid a dime for anything and it wasn't like there was a cure for cancer in that bag......it was allegedly a bag of free crap. I really feel that given the time of year when we should all be taking stock of what we are thankful for and for those we are blessed to (still) have in our lives, maybe it would be best to let this go and use the time in our lives for something much happier!:peace:
