This week 25 token prizes were awarded across 17 games. Games with a lot of players (~1000 players or more) tend to get multiple weekly prizes awarded, but this week some of the smaller games got multiple prizes as well. This is what was awarded:
4 - "Workout outfit" = $75 at Athleta or UnderArmour (Note: if you choose Athleta, it's good at Old Navy, The Gap, and Banana Republic)
5 - Polar HRM (This is usually the Pink FT4)
1 - "Workout shoes" = $75 Zappos
5 - $75 Whole Foods
1 - Jillian Michaels Body Revolution DVDs
3 - $75 Amazon
2 - FitBit Flex
1 - Insanity DVD set
1 - Digital Food Scale
2 - Nike+ FuelBand
The most common prize is the $75 Athleta/UnderArmour card, followed closely by Polar HRM and $75 Amazon. $75 Zappos and $75 Whole Foods are also frequent prizes. The Nike+ FuelBands popped up again, after a month off.As always, if you won a prize, you will have an e-mail from DietBet asking you to verify your address so they can send you the prize. Sometimes this goes to your spam folder. If it's a store credit, it usually comes via e-mail and not long after you reply. If it's physical, it usually arrives in about a week (often from Amazon). If you win something that isn't appropriate (because you don't live near a Whole Foods or you already have a better FitBit) you can usually ask them for a swap.
And a final reminder - if you paid for the tokens, make sure to weigh in once a week! It doesn't matter if you gain weight or lose weight, just weigh in. It also doesn't matter what day you actually weigh-in. They remind you on Weds, but if another day is more convenient for you to remember, make a habit to do it then. (Note, there is never a drawing the first week of a game). The tokens don't transfer to other games and if you use more than one in a week, you still only get one entry into the drawing, so don't waste them! Also, if you have won a prize, you are still eligible to win again (just ask a certain player in the High Stakes September game...), so keep playing!
(Note: I write posts about the stats for all the games that are running, not just the ones I'm playing in, but my posts only appear in the feeds for my games. If you are in other games, feel free to post my blog there so people can see how they are doing. I'm currently in the Oct 7, Dec 2, and Feb 18 games. If you add me as a friend, you will get a notification about all the stats posts I make.
