Got an email from Squadron regarding a $100 shopping spree thru the month of July. I just got another one and you have to open it to see if you are a winner. They will be sending several thru the month. Of course I opened mine and did not win but wonder if this is a gimmick or has any member here won anything similar from Squadron?
Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!
I have received the same e-mails. I haven't won yet but will keep trying.
Neither have I. This is just marketing BS. Lotsa luck.
Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...
No winner here either. Kinda like playing the lottery I guess. Oh well....
Ditto on playing the lottery.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
Why have modelers put a target on Squadron? If it was Lucky Model, M&Models or Sprue Bros doing this, would this question be ask? Now to answer the original query....you have a better chance at winning the shopping spree than getting the five-grand a week from PCH.

I'm still waiting for the next Squadron email. LOL! Maybe I'll get lucky...
Don't hold your breath…..
I use two different emails, my original AOL one from 1995-96, and a hotmail one I began using in 1998-99. They send an email to both. It says "one" lucky person will receive a $100 spending spree in the month of July. I've received at least 6 emails (all losers), three to each account.
I still stand by Squadron. It's the first mail order hobby shop I've used, and I've been a customer of theirs since 1987-88. As with any online or in store purchase, I always search around for the best deal. Sometimes it is Squadron, Sprue Bros., my local hobby shop, other times it is a buy/sell/trade post and sometimes it is eBay.
I use Squadron as the "standard" price; basically their price plus shipping to determine whether or not a model kit is a good deal. If I see a kit that catches my eye on eBay or offered in a forum, I'll check Squadron to see if it really is a good deal.
Got another email from Squadron last night. No winner this time. Gotta keep playin'.... LOL!

If I see a great price on a particular kit, I do comparison shopping with other sites - even if it's a different brand of kit. My first shopping experience with Squadron was pleasant. They had the best price on the kit subject I was looking for regardless whether it was Academy or Ark Model.
I like Squadron, have been using them for years with no complaints. If anyone wins their "jackpot", please let us know. It's just advertising and harmless.
