I seem to be snake bit when it comes to entering contests or playing the lottery. A couple of months back, I went to AutoZone for one of their oil change specials. I picked up 6 Qt. of Valvoline Advanced Synthetic and an STP Maximum Life oil filter (Purolator Boss). I took the receipt and entered the code with Valvoline. On Thursday, UPS delivered a cardboard envelope to my home. I open it and it contains a $100 gift card for AutoZone. It sometimes pays to enter these contests.
 
Congrats to you! Glad to see someone win those contest.
I've filled out lot's of them over the years and have gotten nothing.
So good for you.

Congrats.
Of course you realize your contact information is in a huge, 3 pronged database in Lithuania-Central Africa somewhere and India.

Also try this: Don't report your winnings and see if you're audited next year.

A IRS form 1099-MISC is not issued or reported unless the winnings total more than $600. He will be fine.
