I got an e-mail yesterday telling me I won $100 for completing a survey on drugs and alcohol last fall. Woa, an e-mail saying I've won money that's actually REAL and not spam! This is pretty much the first time I've ever won money. There were about 800-900 participants, and 6 of us got the $100 "incentive" money. If I remember correctly, this was the survey that said I had until a certain day by 11:59 PM to complete it and that the last 3 people to complete the survey would receive the money. I figured that small detail would go unnoticed or dismissed as a mistake by a lot of the participants, so I set a reminder alarm on my cell phone for 11:55 PM that night and completed the survey thinking that I would definitely be one of the final 3 to complete it. I received an e-mail thanking me for participating in the survey and saying that the people who won the money would receive another e-mail later. Well, after a while, I forgot about the whole thing and figured I didn't win. Fast forward to yesterday when I finally got the e-mail. It must have been between 7-8 months ago that I did that survey, LOL.
