'Sweepers' clean up
You can too, they say, in ever-more-popular sweepstakes. But bagging the big win takes work.

Philly Cheesestakers' , you gotta love that name for this Philadelphia based sweepstaking group mentioned in the article.
The article also talks about how companies that might not have thought about sweeps in the past are now moving to them for marketing. This reinforces the theme of a recent article I read wherein it mentioned by 2010 the present number of sweepstakes available on the Net, will more then triple! Personally I don't see the base of sweepstakers tripling within two years, people on a whole still don't believe you can win! The main effect IMHO is that three times the number of available sweepstakes will dilute the number of entries for any one specific sweepstake, making it easier to win. Less entries from others always means more wins for you and me!
