I guess they want you shop at overstock.com. Has anyone ever been scammed on this?

I was the recipient of one of the gift cards back in January. I used the code provided in the email sent to me, bought some stuff from Overstock and received it with no problem.

It's not a scam. It's a way that the administration of CD awards some of it's participants. That's all.

Congratulations to the winners from Las Vegas.

Charley

I see that you posted a gushing message on the page that claims to have awarded the prize. Sorry if I suspect that you might be a part of the scam. I appologize if you are sincere, but I'd rather hear it from one of the regulars that I recognize. BTW: A prize is something awarded with no strings attached. This one is trying to get people to spend money in order to claim the "prize". When it sounds too good to be true...it is.

I got one of the cards around Christmas as a thanks for being a moderator. I placed my order, out the code in, and my merchandise showed up shortly thereafter. No scam there.

Buzz, if you don't want your prize, give it to someone else! lol
This site is wonderful and now being rewarded just for coming in here everyday is a really nice thing. It really made my day! I love this place, even without winning!

Who care's about the shipping fee...it's $50 off of something. Just think if you guys don't want yours, just tell the Admins, and they will give it to someone else that really wants it.
