DANIELLE’S DESK: HOW LONG DO YOU HAVE TO PLAY BEFORE YOU WIN?

Hi everyone. Welcome to another edition of Danielle’s Desk, where we answer the questions you’ve posted on social media. More specifically, where Prize Patrol elite member, Danielle, answers your questions. The question we’re addressing today is a common one, and you may be wondering about it yourself: How long do you have to play before you win?

Question: How Long Do You Have To Play Before You Win?

Click on this video to find out!

Like Danielle said, we’ve had winners who’ve been entering for years, and winners who’ve been entering for weeks. The winner selection process at Publishers Clearing House is completely random, so everyone has an equal chance of winning, no matter how long they’ve been entering.

I watch Winning Moments all the time. I love how shocked and happy everyone is. Witnessing such a life-changing event is really something, and I always get really emotional. Having seen so many, I can tell you that I’ve heard winners say they’ve been entering for years, and I even heard one winner say she’d been entering for three months. THREE MONTHS! Talk about lucky!

There are so many opportunities to win, and it’s always FREE. I can’t imagine why anyone would choose not to enter… which brings me to a question I have for YOU.

Question: How Long Have YOU Been Entering Our Sweepstakes?

We want to hear from you! Please visit the comments section below and tell us how long you’ve been entering to win a PCH sweepstakes! What have you won? Which prize would you most like to win? Have you entered to win our latest SuperPrize? I hope so, because it’s $1,000 A Day For Life, and a “Special Early Look” Prize Event Winner will be announced October 31st!

Whether you’ve been playing for years or days, any PCH Winner will tell you that the most important thing, without question, is to keep the faith and keep entering… because HEY… you never know! Good Luck!

  1. I enter everyday I love 💕 PCH and I hope to meet the prize patrol one day soon. I’m in it to win it. It would be a dream come true to meet you all in person It to would be a blessing 🙏

  2. I have played the mail in entries faithfully for 29 years. I have received one $10 check from PCH, in which I did not cash, in hopes of some day winning the big drawing. But as years have passed, I have held on to my ten dollar check in a picture frame above my bedroom door. I still get comments about being crazy and I should have saved the stamp postage, etc. But I see it being in to deep to quit now… God has a purpose for my life to help His Kingdom prevail. Whatever it may call upon me to do. I have been thru many trials that only God brought me through and saved me from. The Glory is all to Him..!

  3. I’ve been entering since the pandemic in fact I would enter a lot…I was bored. I’m in rehab and I’ve been entering for the last 2-3 months every day whenever I have free time. Practicing, keeping the faith! I’ve entered almost everything. Of course I’d want that super prize, but a car would be nice since I’ve never had one! The only thing is all the years I’ve been entering I moved, changed emails and phone numbers!

  4. Hello Dannielle, I get so aggravated because like all others I have played everyday for tears and have not won anything at all, so how many years do you have to play to win, what am I doing wrong please, I have also ordered several plants that haven’t even grown at all I worked hard at planting them with a bad back and water everyday I’m very upset about this, they sent me 2 more rose bushes, still haven’t even gotten one leaf, and the bulbs didn’t come up. I am not ordering anymore hun, I can’t afford to buy plants that don’t grow, sincerely Donna.
