My first one so I'm not sure how often.
I do it every month if I knew eventually I'd hit it and win one.

It could still take 27 years to win, but much more chance than playing the lottery!

I'd rather spend it on a chance to win a Rolex
I like the odds a lot better than hitting a lottery
Although if I hit a lottery I'd buy at least one Roex for every day of the week

So anyone want to give a clue as to how often this happens; is it an annual thing, or more frequent?

I am not sure if there is any set schedule for these giveaways to happen. However, for this past giveaway, pledge members were given advance notice.

Or maybe longer or not at all, but I won this last year on my 3rd attempt.

Giveaways like this have happened roughly twice a year that I've seen.

Wow!!! Very cool.
The only way I can get one right now is to win one.
Keeping my fingers crossed until the draw is made.
If I won I would consider it my service award for what ive been doing for the last two years full time

The winner has not been announced. Perhaps mid August (the 16th I think) there will be a drawing at a GTG in New Jersey.
