I had won similar things before, one was 5 night cruise to bahamas and the other one was a much bigger one, a Honda S2000.
I won both of them at the lottery thing hosted in the mall, but I ended up going to only one of it, one for the S2000.
It was hosted under sundance (or something like that) travel agent, and they also asked me to attend an hour long showcase of their travel plans which about 2 hours away from my house.
There was about 100+ people in there office who came to claim the prize, a S2000.
So I sat through their boring ass showcase and intensive sales, then thye asked me to fill out all my information and gave me the $500 shopping spree, then there was a catch.
I had to buy one of their travel package in order to get entered into another lottery for, S2000. What a scammer... It wasn't even a legit travel package, it was more like a mortgage type that I have to make monthly payments toward set amount to claim the travel package later when I finish my payments.
So I backed out, thinking $500 shopping spree is already cool.

I came home all excited thinking about what to buy with $500.
So, I got into the shopping spree website, what a fucking scamming piece of shit.
That shopping website was basically listing all the nastiest crap you could ever possibly imagine which you can't even find in a dollar store near you.
For example, they were having this nasty Fm/Am radio crap made by 4 years old in china which was listed for $10 then shipping was $25 which I HAD TO PAY. Haha... Enough said.

None of the shit listed in their shopping site seemed worth to pay the crazy shipping fee.

I say this is a SCAM.
