Notification by phone today?
Very confused. I put a note on my calendar that a sweepstakes that I really wanted to win would be calling winners today between 12-2. I can't find it anywhere on the site. Did I make a mistake or does anyone know what I was trying to tell myself!?

I raced around this morning to get all my errands run so I could be home to answer the phone! My phone didn't ring I'm so sad!! I've been watching the threads to see if anyone else here got the call. Maybe they are still calling because the first winners didn't answer??? ohh well back to sweeping! Good Luck and Happy Sweeping!!

sseads, thanks so much for sorting me out; I thought I was going nuts because (I thought) I looked everywhere possible on the site. I am amazed that so many of us had actual plans based around this great prize.
