Update: A huge thank you to all her participated in this giveaway. With well over 1,000 emails received, some of which brought us to tears, this was very special.
We received countless stories of families getting to do that once in a lifetime vacation they wouldn’t have done otherwise, readers who met their spouse via a DansDeal, seeing grandparents in Israel for the first and only time, and so many more touching stories. As I replied to the emails:
Our readers are what drive Dan and Myself to post every day for the past 19 years.
Your support means everything to us.
Have a great day and keep saving 😊
JJ

Does this include UPS method info?
Long dead
Which tweet link?
Here you go, thanks! https://twitter.com/DansDeals/status/1634718167262978056
I would love to join as I love DansDeals. BUT my kis school doesn’t let me have GOYISHE Whatsapp or Instagram!!
I’ve heard this in the past from readers and it is the exact reason I made an email option for entry!
Thanks, as i don’t either have social media!
You should be proud that you don’t socaial media!
If I’m already joined on Telegram, is it an automatic entry or only for new people who join there?
+1
Wondering the same
In for 3!
Thanks Dan & JJ!
Thanks, I was able to get 4 entries (don’t have instagram or tiktok)!
Will the winner get a 1099?
No.
Good luck!
30 minutes for a consultation and lunch. You better eat the appetizers and entree pretty quickly in less than 31 minutes….
Where’s the DDF option??
Special $10k bonus trip included for DDF Platinum members if they are chosen to be the winner. 😉
What’s the cash value of the 30mn consult with Dan? I’d be interested to pay for that if I don’t win..
….priceless. For everything else, there’s Chase Ink. Sign up now for up to $5000 in points! Hurry, offer ends *redacted*.
LOL! Took the words out of my mouth.
Just by the way all of these prizes were based on a poll on Instagram where I asked people their favorite giveaway prizes. I included the top 5 prizes from that poll 🙂
~ although it is impossible to assign a cash value to this priceless opportunity, for tax purposes, you will be sent a 1099 for $150,000 in implied value. Consult your accountant before entering sweepstakes. DDco and related entities take no responsibility for loss of Medicaid, SNAP benefits, Section 8 housing, or any tax related consequence as a result of winning a prize.
Just checked with our accountant, and no 1099 will be issued! We try to do the best for our readers!
Cool!
Everything / everyone has a price, my friend
Even though no 1099, you must still report winnings on your income tax return. But, I’d suggest that the value of the consultation would be $250; hence, no need for 1099 issuance.
I posted on my status do i need to send a pic with a certain amount of views or just that it was posted?
The consultation is definitely the most valuable prize!! Worth way more than 2800$
In for four! Thanks Dan!
JJ, any data points on using 3bm to get multiple entries using same method?
Thank you for having an entry option for those of us without social media. It is really appreciated!
Is this a ‘best story’ contest, or the winners are chosen at random from those who send in stories, no matter how unexciting?
I hope that Dan answers your question.
Thanks for the email option don’t have social media
+1000

Wow I’m blown away so kind of you! For me the 30 min conversation with Dan is worth more than any prize hope I win Erin of milvado!!!

When is the drawing
Winners will be announced on 3/20!
Who did you contact to get upgraded to that suite? I tried using a suite upgrade but they said they only upgrade to a grand king (which wasn’t available) and no other suite is an option even though other suites were available. They ended up upgrading me automatically to a grand king before I checked in without using the certificate lol
Hi! When I tried to share the reel in Instagram only allows me to share with friends in private message but not as a reel or as a story. How can I change that? Thank you!
Does your Instagram account need to be public for you to know it was reposted?
hmmm so in the spirit of this site I should be opening up multiple tik tok, instagram accounts and using incognito mode with 3bm and entering a million times…
Curious if insta profile has to be public did you to know we shared it ?
Dan, Spec. Thanks for adding the email option this time! Its very much appreciated!
@dan if I already joined telegram a while ago will I still get a entry?
Am I automatically entered if am already on Telegram following you?
How do I confirm that I am entered?
I also would like to know.
Same here
I sent in a email entry over a day ago and my email is still unread i hope im being entered into the raffle
I added Danadeals number to my contacts. I joined WhatsApp group. How do I add you to my status?
Take a screenshot and post it to your status.
Or as dan says, “read the post?”
Sorry for being dense here, but the post seems to be too long to copy as my status, which only allows 130 characters (and no image option for a screenshot).
is it permissible to enter the sweepstakes with a few emails?
How to enter, 6 ways to enter, each one is its own entry, limit one of each per person:
Ok,Thanks
How do I know if I was entered?
I never got any confirmation …
Who is the winner?
Everybody!
I guide you a Bracha you should win !
So did I won?
Sooooo Excited!! Looks goo!!!
When is the drawing taking place?
Running out of time
Does the 30 minutes with Dan include information on the fedex method?
It’s a half an hour to 12 getting suspenfull
@jj @dan, can you disclose a breakdown of how many entries there were, and how they came?
Everything ok in Cleveland? We’ve been waiting all day…
@Elisheva S. LMK if you want to sell your prize
