Happy New Year! Coming off the heels of last month's whirlwind Day of Giving and Second Chance giveaways where over 2,000 people received a prize, we're not taking a breather and have cranked up this month's hardware giveaway which features a STEAM DECK (64GB) that will be awarded to four (4) different winners. 

Interested? Head on over to our giveaway page and enter now! Contest will run until February 1st when all four winners will be chosen at random. Contest is open to users worldwide and includes free shipping. No purchase necessary. Best of luck!

Wow, what a wonderful response to our second chance giveaway. We have closed the contest and drawn the winners. We pulled *1000* unique names from those that entered! That means that 900 people will receive a random free game, the other 100 will receive a random prize such as RC points, Prize Wheel Spins, T-Shirts, Giftcards and more. Then we drew two more winners for our GRAND PRIZE giveaway. We won't be listing all 1000 winners names, just be sure and check your PMs over the next week or so to see if you won. Any prizes which are unclaimed after 14 days of being notified will go back into our prize bank and given away in a future contest. The only names we will be announcing are our grand prize winners which are:

stirges (TIER 7) - Winner of an AyaNeo AIR PRO handheld gaming system
daughtergirl1818 (TIER 7) - Winner of an RTX 3080 graphics card

Congrats to everyone and we hope that you enjoyed this year's Day of Giving and Second Chance giveaways. 

Get ready for our January hardware giveaway which will be cranking up very soon! Watch this space and Aurora announcements for more info once entry is open.

As you may or may not know, we are hosting a SECOND CHANCE giveaway for those that could not attend our live Day of Giving on the 17th. We have updated the rules slightly as well as added new prizes as entry numbers have been less than the number of prizes we have to give away!

As of now, ALL MEMBERS will receive one entry into the contest. All LIFETIME PLUS members will automatically receive TWO entries while TIER 7 members will receive THREE entries! Note that all TIER 7 members that have already entered, you will receive and extra entry into the contest.

We have also added a second chance GRAND PRIZE! Winner will receive either an AYANEO AIR PRO or RTX 3080 video card. Winner's choice. ALL members are eligible to win.

We have over 500 prizes to give away. EVERYONE has a great shot at winning a nice prize. So, if you haven't done so, please visit the giveaway page (make sure you are signed into the site) and:

ENTER NOW!

On December 17, 2022, we held our 6th annual "Day of Giving" where we gave out a share of over $45,000.00 in free memberships, games, gift cards, t-shirts and more. 

We reserved a pool of over 500 additional/unclaimed prizes for those that could not attend or didn't win anything. Please follow the link below to enter yourself into the drawing. Note that all members may only enter once but Lifetime PLUS/TIER 7 members will automatically receive two entries. Winners will be chosen at random and contacted via PM. 

There will be no list of winners posted. Watch your PM box after January 1st to see if you won. It will take us time to work through the list of 500+ winners so you may not receive a PM until the end of January. This drawing will be held sometime on or after January 1, 2023. Prizes in the pool include free lifetime memberships, TIER 7 upgrades, prize wheel spins, PayPal gift cards, reward credits, free games, hoodies, shirts and more. Best of luck to everyone!

Next, this year's Day of Giving will take place on December 17th:

Official Announcement
Rules and FAQ
Prize Packs and Membership Requirements
Donation Page

So far we have collected:

1400+ free game keys
1100+ free wheel spins
36M+ reward credits

... but we can still use monetary donations which help to go towards purchasing CH merchandise and the grand prize.

Since TIER 7 donors are eligible for ALL PRIZE PACKS, we now have two different ways to upgrade your account, both at discounted prices for the holidays. We're planning many more awesome hardware giveaways in 2023 with several being exclusive to Tier 7.

Note that the removal of Tier 7 from our online store can occur at any time.

That's all for now. We are really looking forward to this year's grand giveaway. We hope you will join us. But if you cannot make it, we WILL have a second chance option where you do not need to be present to win. Second chance prizes will carry the same membership requirements as the official live giveaway.

Our "Pick Your Own Prize" November giveaway has ended along with the BONUS giveaway. All 7 winners will be chosen soon so be sure and keep an eye out for your name! 

This takes us to our final giveaway of the year and it's our biggest one yet! Our 6th annual "Day of Giving" has been officially announced for December 17th and we are actively taking donations for those that wish to give back to the Cheat Happens community. 

Each year we give out $45,000+ in prizes over a 3-hour message board bonanza. We're giving away everything from free games to PayPal gift cards, CH merchandise, reward credits, prize wheel spins, a grand prize and more. You can see our official prize packs on the giveaway board post. 

For this giveaway, you do not need to enter, you simply have to be present and signed into your CH account. All levels of CH members will be eligible for specific prize packs with certain prizes requiring Lifetime PLUS or TIER 7 donor status.

So far, we have over 1,000 games to give away, 500 prize wheel spins and over 20 MILLION reward credits (RC). These numbers will grow exponentially by the 17th. This marks the first year that we are also accepting monetary donations for those that may not have games or other items to contribute but want to help your fellow CH members get something FREE for the holiday where they may not have received anything. Right now it's the monetary donations that we need the most to help pay for additional prizes and our grand prize. Every penny donated will go directly into this year's giveaway.

For those that will not be able to attend the giveaway in person, we will have a "second chance" giveaway for any/all prizes that were not claimed or given away. We will allow people to sign up for about 2 weeks after the 17th and then pull a ton of winners. In past years we had enough prizes so that EVERY SINGLE PERSON that showed up and entered the second chance giveaway received at least one prize.

This is the big one folks. More updates as we get closer to the 17th.

We are in the final week of November's "Pick Your Own Prize" giveaway and bonus STEAM DECK giveaway for TIER 7 donors. If you have yet to enter, it's definitely not too late! Winners to be announced the first week of December.

It's also worth noting that if you have been on the fence about becoming a TIER 7 donor, we've knocked $50 off the price of BOTH levels of Tier 7 for Black Friday/Cyber Monday. One of the levels of Tier 7 will disappear from the online store on December 1st.

...and that will lead us into our greatest giveaway of the year, our 6th annual "Day of Giving" which has been announced for Saturday, December 17th. There will be prizes galore and typically so many that we have more prizes than people to give them to! This would generate a "second chance" giveaway for those that cannot attend the live event.

You can read more about this year's giveaway on our official announcement post.

You may then donate to this year's giveaway here. If you have extra game keys, prize wheel spins, reward credits or even spare change, you may submit it to the giveaway so that those less fortunate may get something free this holiday. Much more information to come. 

We have crossed the midway point in this month's giveaway and there are still plenty of entries to be gained! 

On this month's Pick Your Prize giveaway, the current person with the most entries comes in at 111, then 99, 98 and 95. On our *BONUS GIVEAWAY* of two STEAM DECK (512 GB) handhelds (which would make a great holiday gift!), we have added a second way to get to TIER 7 status if you're not interested in all the frills that come with the original offer. The odds of winning one of these Steam Decks are extremely high since it's limited to TIER 7 members only. We're talking greater than a 1 in 250 chance as of this posting. I don't think you will find better odds anywhere on one of these devices which currently sells for $850 on eBay.

Enter both contests here and best of luck to everyone!
