I can't believe that so many don't. But then again, manners don't seem to be used too often anymore.

How hard can it be to say "thanks!!" when we email back? Hard to believe so many don't. On the other hand, nice to know that when we say thank you, people are really really really pleased!

I'm so thrilled with every little thing that I win, that I AM thankful and I want to share that thankfulness and excitement with the people who gave it to me! I guess I just see it as common courtesy :) I completely agree with you-I ALWAYS send a thank you note and I try to send another note to thank the sponsor/company when I’ve received the prize just to let them know.

A simple note, letting the sponsor know the prize was received & thanking them lets the company know their sweepstakes are appreciated. That kind of feedback may affect their decision to continue with further sweepstakes. I agree with you!

I always start off by saying Thanks before I reply with the information requested. Plus I close with Thanks again or appreciate it. I can't believe that isn't common practise when you win a prize.

I'll write a happy and enthusiastic thank-you note (who isn't happy to win a prize?) and the sponsor will write and tell me that this seldom happens! I would think it rude NOT to write a thank you to them, wouldn't you? I’ve had this happen to me too!

I wish we lived closer to do an at-home yoga practice together. Buffalo is a little far for each of us to commute though! I wish all the best for your daughter - what a brave one she is! I would like 2012 to be more peaceful for myself, my family & friends. i 2011 has been a year of change here too — my son is going through a nasty divorce and my father-in-law passed away.
