Today I got this email...

Congratulations! You've won The Precor EFX 5.23 Elliptical Fitness Crosstainer
from SELF.com. Please send me your mailing address and I'll send it to you right
away. Thanks for logging on to SELF.com. Visit us again!

I don't remember entering this one and to be honest I don't know what this prize actually is.

If anyone knows what the prize is let me know. I'm guessing some type of exercise product?

Thanks too for your support to me - that I would someday win!

Amy

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Remove your name from that Loser's Club list! What a great win!!

I found the website so you can get an idea of what it is, but I didn't see your model.

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]

"Elliptical Fitness Crosstraining is a popular kind of aerobic exercise that combines the natural stride of a treadmill with the simplicity of a climber. On an Elliptical Fitness Crosstrainer, you stand comfortably in an upright position while holding onto the machine's handrails and striding in either a forward or reverse motion.

Meanwhile the proprietary CrossRamp® ensures a variety of muscle involvement and minimal muscle fatigue by varying the incline angle. This is a feature so fundamentally important that we patented it when we first introduced the EFX (changing the angle is what allows you to crosstrain all of your lower body's large muscle groups). "

Thanks Ttulipss - if the one I'm getting is similar to the ones on this site it'll be worth a couple thousand dollars!!! I'm looking into it more now!

Thanks Tami!

I actually called a Proctor dealer and he said I could sell it for over $3,000! My DH has been out of work for about 5 weeks now, so this is a huge blessing! Remember when I said if I ever won anything big I'd hold my own contest here... well, I'm thinking about what to do for a contest here. Once I get and sell this prize I'll put up a contest for you all.

I'm almost sure I got this contest from this board, so thanks to the OP!
