Nov. 4, 2009 (Business Wire) -- Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) continues to celebrate the 10th anniversary of its Wish List feature with November sweepstakes that offer customers amazing cash and prizes. There are six weeks left in the Wish List Sweepstakes and customers can enter weekly at www.amazon.com/wishlist10th by creating, adding an item to, or sharing an Amazon Wish List. The holidays are getting closer and Amazon Wish Lists are a great way for customers to let friends and family know what they are wishing for this season.
Since the beginning of the Wish List anniversary celebration, more than half a million Amazon customers have entered the sweepstakes. The three lucky sweepstakes winners so far are:
D. James Czech II of Anchorage, Alaska, won “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” Premier Wish List from week one and will be traveling to Los Angeles to attend the “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” premiere. “I have never won anything so this is pretty cool,” he said. “I can’t wait to attend the premiere, and have a chance to meet the “Twilight” cast. It should be quite the event, and one I will always remember!”
Steven Whysong of Mesa, Ariz., won the Dream Kitchen Wish List from week two and will receive dozens of products, including all new major appliances by KitchenAid. "My family has helped me out a lot in the last year. All of these products are so wonderful and there are so many items here — it will be great to be able to help them as well."
Michelle Hoehman of Clarence Center, N.Y., won the Jonas Brothers Wish List from week three and will receive a trip to London to meet the Jonas Brothers and tickets to their concert at Wembley Arena. “This is the opportunity of a lifetime,” said Hoehman. “I am normally a homebody and would never do anything like this so I am really looking forward to traveling overseas and just embracing the whole experience.”
