I've won a few times on scratchoffs, mostly free tickets but sometimes $5, $10, a couple of times won $20 or $25, twice I won $40.
Contests? Once I won $10 worth of tickets in a radio call-in contest
And when I had just turned 13, Nickelodeon had that Nick-or-Treat thing where you sent in entry forms, they'd call and if you said the right phrase, you won Hershey bars, and I was one of the runner up winners and got 2 whole boxes of them.
And also a couple years back when the town was getting into its Day after Thanksgiving-jump ahead for Christmas stuff, several stores had raffle drawings and I entered for a $15 gift certificate at the book store, and I was the ONLY entry for it so I won by default (and whe I finally used it a few months later, I stretched it out and got about 30 books with it!)
And the grocery store's had a few drawings, and when I was 17 I won a $50 grocery card and last Valentine's Day I won my mother a bouquet of a dozen roses.
My brother always complains that we never win anything, but I don't think I've done too badly for myself.
