I have played this game before on my yahoo games. I think that this game is really cute and a great way to help improve kids memory. Not only that, it also shows kids that with great work and efforts, comes great rewards.

Still cannot figure out how to enter to win cook's giveaway. All I can find are the rules and last month's winners.

Time will tell just joined up. I imagine it is a game of chance regardless of how long you have been trying to win something. I will try to enter daily and hope I win.......

Has anyone received anything from this membership? I joined last month, and the website still states that my membership is pending email verification. I paid $24.00, but I'm not sure for what.

I did join via snail mail. I'm a Life Member now so just call them and ask then about it. They're attentive to their clients.

All you have to do is click on the contest you want to enter scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the enter button. Simple as that.

I don't see anyplace either to get enter, even in my inbox, whoever wrote that one. I see many places to pay, and pay. If that is the game then someone whoever said a long time ago,"Games are fun" they didn't see or try to play this game. Anyone in Florida?

I joined in July 2008 and all I have recieved are things wanting more money. They want you to join as a life time member. Pay this to get something else. Have not even recieved the current magazine.

I have recieved items promised with the life membership...gifts, pots and pans, and such...but have not seen a magazine yet. I do enjoy all the recipes I have access to and everything else I HAVE recieved, but I feel like I am missing out on something not having it in print.

I have been a member for 2 years and enjoy both the magazine and website. To "play" or enter contests, go to the CONTESTS tab and you will see them all. Also note that the Cook's Give Away is different than the daily "Click and Win" contest. You do not have to view the ads, just scroll to the bottom where is says "Click Here" and you will be entered.

I don't like these lines "Winners must pay all costs other than those specifically identified in the prize description. All taxes are the sole responsibility of the winners. Limit of one prize per person. Potential winners will be randomly selected and notified by mail. Winners may be required to sign and return an affidavit of eligibility and release of liability within 14 days of the postmark date." I was about to send the entry card with my subscription payment, but I'll be skipping this one for now.

I have received solicitation for life membership. I figure that by the time I receive one free year's membership I will be 94 years old.Don't think its a good deal for me! Difficult to enter the contest. How do I log in with my original i.d. and password? The people who run the website do not make it user friendly. I am an amateur cook, not an IT person.

Winnersd must pay all taxes, my son won a trip last year and had to pay 1250.00 on the 5000 trip. They sent him a gift form and when he did his taxes they deducted it then. You only have to pay if its over 500 dollars but the fun he had was worth more than the 1250 he paid. I can't enter the one contest because it asked for my email on the offers but don't see where to enter my email. I believe you can choose to not get offers but still enter the contest, I'm like you guys can't get it to let me enter.

I would love to win the Weber electric grill. I have purchase so many George Formans and none of them seem to work very well. This grill has so many features that would really help with my indoor grilling. Since I am a diabetic, I usually do all of my cooking with a grill especially grilled vegetables and fish.

How is it determined who wins what article? It seems to me a better contest would be to allow participants to choose which items they would be interested in. I am certainly not interested in very many of the items.

I could not find out how to enter the contest, the only thing I saw was the rules. I did read that you have to pay taxes if you win,which means the contest is not free. I'm glad I didn't enter.
