The chances of winning run about 150 - 300 to 1. The winners are drawn by our "Computerized Automatic Drawing System" (CARDS). <BR><BR> Each sweepstakes restarts each every quarter. A person can not win the same prize win twice in the same sweepstakes, in the same quarter. However, a person could win the 1st and 2nd prize in the same sweepstakes. If a person enters our sweepstakes consistently the numbers show that they should win 8 - 12 prizes per year. <BR><BR> About Getaways Travel<BR> Getaways Travel (Getaways Travel) is a subsidiary of Coastal Vacation Travel. With both companies being sister companies to Inter-Mex Ministries and are registered in Heldago County in the State of Texas. <BR><BR> <B>A hotel says,</B> I average a given percent of occupancy, say 70%, I will give away 30% of my rooms. I will pay the labor to maintain and keep them up, but I can't pay the tax out of my pocket for 30% of my hotel. So here are the rooms - <B>Give them away.</B> <I>The hotel can not advertise free rooms or advertise them for the amount of the taxes - they will be under cutting their wholesale contracts and put themselves out of business.</I> <BR><BR> <B>Ok why would you give me the rooms for tax only?</B> Because it levels my labor cost allowing me <U>not to</U> contract expensive and unexperienced temporary labor. My hotel has a better image with the rooms full and of course, a certain percentage of the free people will spend money in my hotel. This increases our efficiency and ability to provide better service. <BR><BR> <B>Now we are faced with 2 more problems.<BR> We have rooms</B> - 1. Who is going to handle customer service and reservations? 2. Who is going to handle promotion and give them away. All of this cost money and labor. A fulfillment center says, if it was just one we would do it as a favor, however, with this volume and the fact that there is no advertising and promotional cost. OK, we will take on the reservations at this discount rate and fit it in with what we are doing now. <BR><BR> <B>So now we have a fulfillment center.</B> That is where we come in - we will promote the giveaways because a certain percentage of the entrants will take advantage of the promotional package we offer. All of this sounds good, but to reach the volume needed to satisfy the amount of rooms to be given, we can't give just one away, that would be easy at no cost, we have to reach some volume. <BR><BR> <B>We really have 3 goals:</B> <OL> <LI> Is to give as many families who can not afford a vacation - a vacation they can afford. Not just 1 all free like most companies, We want hundreds and hundreds of families to have the opportunity for at least once in their life enjoy a 3 or 4 Star Deluxe hotel stay that they can afford, even if it is only a few nights.<BR> <LI> Is to help the hotel increase their efficiency.<BR> <LI> Of course, is to show a profit on our promotional opportunities, so we don't go broke.</OL> <p align=justify> <B>All cost</B> are disclosed in the terms, then itemized in the Frequent Asked Questions. Therefore, one can say, <u>Oh scam,</u> but the hundreds of people who claim our prizes, take time to read the FAQs and make the choice to claim. This is the option of all winners. <B>Wouldn't a scam</B> be where someone tries to make money from a claim? It is free pick it up or if we ship at minimal shipping cost per prize benefit which does not cover labor. [Shipping and handling of $9.75. We average around 15 shipments per week (2009 748 shipped). We can't even pay mim. wage for someone in the shipping department, plus we have to pay for the benefit, postage and shipping materials etc..] Someone ask "well what if you ship a 1,000 a week?" The answer to that is "we just have to hire more shippers." <BR><BR> <B>Why don't we give them away free?</B> We do, stop by and pick them up. But we can not ship free, the shipping and handling cost would throw us outside our budget, we would be out of business and the hundreds who want to claim, would not be able too. Our goals would go down the drain. <BR><BR> Over the 15 years we have been running sweepstakes we have had the complainers. However, we always get many more emails thanking us, singing our praises, than complaining. So we are still in business. Those who will not share in the shipping cost are the ones who miss out. Many of those who think it is a scam will not change their minds and that is OK. We are sure glad that there is a difference of opinion or we would all be chasing the same man or woman. If one just watches the directories, we advertise new sweepstakes Daily, you will see all of them sooner or later. Our sweepstakes restart each quarter, conceively a sweeper could win hundreds of times a year. However, our data shows that if all our sweepstakes are enter consistently, one should win 8 - 12 prizes a year.
