    Chances to win a house come up throughout the year, so I am going to get organized and post them all here.

    First up, a house in Florida. I don't want to be in Florida, but free's free and you can always sell it. Good luck!

    I used to enter the HGTV Dream Home sweepstakes all the time :) There was one year in particular that i entered EVERY day for weeks lol. It's fun to think about the possibility of winning.

    I wouldn't mind living in Florida, and i really like this house. I just did the virtual tour and i like how the front of the house doesn't look gigantic...it just looks like a nice ranch and then you walk in and :-O

    Is there free shipping and do they have a pigeon big enough to bring it ? Or maybe a team of pigeons ?

    You have to know these things when you're a king. Looks like it's the gorge of eternal peril for you.


    This thread is derailing nicely.

    My particular favorite was in Sonoma. I took the tour twice. They don't do tours anymore.

    I'll tell you something weird about this one. In the Master Bedroom, there is a bell jar. In either the 360 or the pictures, the bell jar holds sea shells. In the other one it contains what I think is the skull of a baby crocodile. :zombies_confused:


    Less weird but still confusing, in the Dining Room pictures the light fixture is black. In the 360s it is shiny bronze. I hope the winner gets the black version. Although I would throw it out in any finish.

    They seem to have lost Ethan Allen as a sponsor. :dead: All of the furnishings and light fixtures are from Wayfare this year.

    Scripps has changed hands, and this may be one of their last house giveaways.

    ---------------------

    Everybody don't forget, along with the house and all of the furnishings, you also win a car and $250,000. You can see the car in the garage pics or the garage 360.

    If you do doubt your courage or your strength, come no further. For death awaits you all. With big, nasty, pointy teeth.

    I would love to have this house, and being that it is close.
    But, unfortunately, I have my hands full, taking care of the one I have now.
    It's beautiful though, and I would request a sexy pool guy, to maintain the pool
