Yep, just talked to these folks this morning myself. They started off with how I'd been ENTERED in a sweeps, but also went through the "free watch" business and "48 months free of 4 magazines." All I had to do was agree to pay $xx/week for Soap Opera Digest. When I declined on the mags, I didn't even get asked if I wanted a men's or women's watch, so I guess that was all part of the mag deal.
Watch your VISA/MC/Discover bills closely if you got this call and agreed to ANYTHING. They are very slick and borderline, if not over the line, mis-representing the offer.
As for how they got your home number, they may be calling from CC company lists. My caller wanted me to confirm that I still held a Visa etc. and asked which of those cards gave me the best service (without ever asking for a card number). Don't know how they would pick which card to put the mag charge on, had I agreed.
