I always chuck their stuff - should I take seriously if I have no interest in the actual magazine.

Never won a prize. If time and bored I complete what they ask as the envelope for returning doesn't require stamp. However I always say NO to their offers. This usually means you are not eligible for an extra bonus with the prize. As far as I am aware to make it legal you can do this as you cannot be made purchase anything. I also do not know anyone who has won.

What prize, I along with this old man I know both got letters from readers digest telling us we definetly won a big prize. I always chuck thes letters in the bin as they are a waste of time and money. but both of us tried it out, after all readers dijest is supposed to be a respectable mag. both of us went through god knows how many letters etc from rd they say its this and that stage, in the end we got zilch. these people want taking to court and heavyly fined. all these stupid pics of mr x from london etc i dont beleive a dam thing about it, life today i9s one big con, even the once respected companies now cannot be trusted.

Been sending away for the Readers Digest Prize for years and never won a thing. Always see photo's of winners but don't know anyone personally. I think it is just one big con. I often take part a competitions in mags as well , you never see who the winner is or was just a big con , that is all. :)

They usually put the winners pictures into the Digest, but I have never won, have numerous books bought, which I just gave away yesterday and for the past few years I just chuck the stuff into the garbage. To me they're sending way to much and for their sake I hope its on recycled paper.

I used to do it years ago and never won a thing and have never heard of anybody winning on it either. I used to get their magazine though - it was pretty good.
