Did you receive a check this week for $250 from Kellogg’s? Lots of my readers did because they entered the Kellogg’s School Year’s Resolution Sweepstakes (now closed) when I told them there would be 333 lucky winners of $250 every week from July 6 through September 5. On one-time entry sweepstakes like this one, the odds are better that you’ll win if you enter when the sweepstakes first start. The assumption is that every week more and more people learn about it as the word spreads and they get more entries each week. Here are what my readers are saying about winning this cash prize:
Monica R. said “I even received the check on my birthday and it was a complete surprise and a very Happy Birthday!”
Kara T. said “I think I remember filling out the sweepstakes where you had to tell them your school years resolution on your site… if this is for real I won $250!!!”
Colleen said “I too received a $250 check in the mail from Kelloggs.. I am thrilled!”
Heidi said “It is such a blessing because we are getting ready to take a long driving trip and it will sure help out! I found our about it on Freebies 4 Mom and I have won a few little things in the past but this was awesome!”
Jaclyn said “I also won the Kelloggs Frosted Mini Wheats sweeps! It was such a surprise receiving it today!”
Lynne said “A check just appeared via UPS for $250!!! No advanced notice, just a doorbell and a paper envelope (made me flinch and think maybe someone was playing a Halloween trick)! I read a few things online and it seems like a lot of people are seeing these…hopefully a lot of Freebies 4 Mom readers!!!
Caroline said “To be honest, I didn’t even remember entering when my husband called to ask me why he had to double sign and show id to Fed Ex in order to receive it. I made him open it over the phone and he told me we won $250!”
Kim said “I came home today opened up my mail and won a sweet $250 from Kellogg’s Back to School sweepstakes that started in July and ended in September. Woo Hoo couldn’t have come at a better time.”
Amanda T. said “Monday I received a UPS envelope that had a $250 check from Kellogg’s (I won a grand prize in the Frosted Mini Wheats School Sweep) and on Tuesday I received my bushel of Milano cookies from Pepperidge Farm! I wouldn’t have even known about the sweeps if you hadn’t posted them, so thank you very, very much!”
Rebekah said “My husband has been skeptical about me playing the sweeps – but I proved to him today how worthwhile it can be!”
Kelly J. said “Thank you SO much for posting all these freebies and sweepstakes. This will be SO helpful for the upcoming holidays!!!”

I won $250 from Kelloggs too. A knock at my door, an envelope laying there and voila, $250! Huge surprise! This will really come in handy for Christmas!
I found out about the sweeps here, so THANK YOU, Heather – I got my check too! So FUN!
I won $250 too! Christmas has been paid for! Yupiiii
Oh what a surprise! I opened my door last Friday to see an envelope was delivered by FED EX. What a sweet treat to open it and have a $250.00 check from Kellogg’s! I bought my son some new shoes and a winter coat.
I won, too! Didn’t even remember entering and thought the envelope probably had coupons or something like that.
Count me a winner, too! I won both the $250 Kellogg’s cash & the “bushel” of Milano cookies. Thanks for the heads up on these sweeps!
I won the $250 from Kellogg’s, too.
Yes…I won $250 too! Thanks to you :) The money is going in my HDTV fund…what a thrill it was to come home to that waiting for me in my mail…and I am NOT a lucky person!
I also won! I was shocked! Thanks again Freebies 4 Mom for all you do!
I won too! I didn’t know there were so many Grand prize winners! Congrats to all of us – WHOO HOO!
What a wonderful surprise to a stressed out day. I couldn’t believe I was a winner in the Kellogg’s Sweepstakes for $250. I have a 10 years anniversary coming up very soon; so, I think I’ll be buying my husband something very nice to celebrate!
I won the Kellogs back to school $250 check also!! Just came home and it was at the door at first I didn’t think it was real but then Isaw what it was for and remembered entering the contest ! I never win anything so I was amazed!!
Count me in too. UPS came with the $250 check last Friday night! Thanks!
I too won! I was really worried about Christmas since I am unemployed and then I received a $250 check from Kelloggs!!!!!! Made my day and my kids Christmas!!! Don’t give up on those sweeps!!!
I received a check as well. What a blessing from God. It was much needed.
my goodness, everbody won! wow…
I won $250, couldn`t believe it!!!
Add me to your list of winners! I started an e-mail to thank you and got side tracked with the kiddos. I’m so excited! I’m planning to use this to put my daughter in either swim lessons or a science enrichment program that I learned about recently. She will love getting out and going to “school” and her little brother will get some one on one mommy time!
I won $250, too! Was planning to email you to tell you thanks, but you beat me to it with this post! I didn’t know what the envelope was either, until I opened it..and found a check for $250! Thanks, Heather!!
I won the $250 too! My husband got the envelope from the UPS man and opened it assuming it was going to be some pictures or something that I had ordered….he stood there SHOCKED while he read it and then handed it to me! Thanks so much for telling me about the sweepstakes!
I got a $250 check from Kellogg’s this weekend also! I maybe entered once or twice, barely remember it. Such a great surprise!!!
Add me to the list of freebies4mom winners of $250.00 from Kelloggs! What an exciting surprise…Thanks so much to Heather for making entering sweeps sooooooo easy!!!
I also won the $250 from Kelloggs, and was completely surprised! Thanks so much Heather for telling us about great sweeps like this! And I got my Milano cookies the same day, it was great.
UPS left a note on my door today! I wonder it I have one coming? That would be such a great surprise!..But I also oredered a book, now I cant wait to see what shows up! Congratulations to those who won!!
I put the check in the bank so fast…it’s great to feel like I was making a bit of income since SAHM life is not financially rewarding! I wanted to win the Milano bushel but maybe cash is better…it doesn’t end up around my middle :) I’m not complaining, and I’ll keep playing your sweepstakes, Heather!
I won too!
wow, congratulations to all of you! How awesome, I hope that’s me one day:)
I also recieved a ck for $250. It came at a time when I was rebuilding a new life for myself and I couldn’t be happier. Thanks for helping me on my new path to success!!!
Congrats to all the winners:-)
I won the $250 prize for Kellogg’s too! UPS delivered an envelope to my door last week and I had no clue what it might be. I had to look over the paperwork twice to believe what I was seeing. Thank you so much for your awesome posts on freebies, good deals and samples. I love this blog!!
I received one of the $250 checks and was so excited, as it couldn’t have come at a better time… thanks so much Freebies 4 Mom!
CONGRATS! I always like to hear the sweeps success stories :-)
I won too! When my husband opened it and started reading that I’d won a sweepstakes, I thought maybe it was from Huggies as I play and play and play and haven’t won a darn thing. He said it was from Kellogg’s and I couldn’t even remember having entered the contest. Thanks Freebies4Mom!
I won too, it came in the mail. Saved half and spent half.
My husband was getting frustrated with how much I was on the computer. He now says (we’ll see how long this lasts) that he wont complain anymore since the Kellogg’s check for $250.00 showed up at our door while I was at work :) Thank you for letting us know of all these great chances!
I was one of the $250 winners!!! It was such a shock when I opened the envelope and couldn’t have came at a better time!!
Me Too!! I got one and was totally shocked.. What a nice treat :) Will really help out with the extras. I now believe people do win sweepstakes :)
I too won a $250 check from Kelloggs. This past Saturday morning we were watching TV when my husbands uncle showed up (our old landlord) and said he had a delivery. We opened it and to my surprise was the check. It came at the right time for Christmas =)
I won too!! I was so excited!! Didn’t win as much as Jade here though but happy to have won the $250. :)
I got it too! The UPS man pulled up and honked his horn, then about halfway up the driveway he stopped and said “Oh, no… wrong house, sorry” and proceeded over to the neighbors house with the box he had. I had been hoping it was Milano cookies! Then, he knocked on the door again and asked if I would take my neighbor’s package ’cause they weren’t home. But on top of their box was an envelope for me… it was the $250 check from Kelloggs! Quite a surprise!!! The next day the Milano cookies and the bottle of Similac were left on the porch for me… such a great week!
I won in the frito lay sweeeps over the weekend a $50 giftcard for Cabelo Outfitters. I am getting a pair of the sheepskin slippers. I deserve something too…
