Guess it’s still a thing.

Figured the interwebs woulda killed it.


Member when i was wee chap, Ed McMahon on teevee showing up at someone’s house with a 4’x8’ check and they going cra cra.

“Thank you PCH”


Anyone on here won it?

You buy a Labrogenie or something fancy?

It’s ok if you won and wish to remain anonymous so the in-laws don’t hound you.

People do win it but the odds are incredibly low. I get their emails on occasion. They're always selling some China junk. I don't know where they get the money to pay the sweepstakes.

It is actually quite lucrative although perhaps not as much as in prior years. It was owned by a family in Long Island that was a client of my first employer, a Wall Street law firm. One of the senior partners whose client it was actually quit his law practice in order to run the business for them.

I delivered to a man here in Knoxville that won a PCH lottery and 256 million on Powerball. Pretty good feller that gave a lot of it to his community.

Ex MIL & FIL passed away in '97 in a car accident. He always did the PCH and ordered books and magazines because he believed you couldn't win unless you bought something. Got a Reader's Digest Family Legal book in the mail after that, along with a big bill for it and some other books/magazines. Used that to tell them to take a hike and not to expect anything from him. Or anyone else to pay for them.
