I love to enter sweepstakes. Most of my friends, acquaintances, and even random people tell me "You are so lucky!" I try to tell them that sweepstakes is a numbers game and the more you enter the more likely you are to win.
Few people actually keep good records of how many sweepstakes they enter. I do, though. The reasoning behind it is because I can usually see trends that follow how much I enter and how much I win. If I am not winning much, a quick look at the chart tells me if I was not entering as much and my wins SHOULD be fewer than usual.

Each year I get a new incentive chart. I need one that has at least 24 columns across and at minimum 31 rows down. I always use a fine point Sharpie marker to help it stand out from what I write inside the boxes.
