The balloon does seem to land on the right.I do not think anyone is imagining this phenomenon....... The free shipping can be used on clearance items.When you win free ship, the email confirming your win states it can be used on clearance. Whenever I obtain free shipping coupons, I use on clearance.This seems a good game....I had stayed away from hsn for several months because of the poor selection of clearance items---but June -July selections looks decent.

First time I played, I won free shipping too (finally good on clearance!) Second time I won 15% off a regular price item . This one looks like a good one! Good luck to all.


Me too... I received the free shipping on the first day, and 15% off the second day. And then nothing after...
I doubt I will use either "price", since you can only use them on regular priced items.
I wish coupons would apply to sale items also, because that's the only thing I tend to buy, always.

I never even get to select a box before I get an email saying I didn't win but here is a coupon. How can it say I didn't win if I haven't even played, yet?

I knew you couldn't use the percentage off coupons with sale or clearance items,
I didn't know you couldn't use them on TVs, computers, fitness, furniture or toys.
Eh?

To me it seems it is ALWAYS on the right but I don't think it really matters. It is a computer game after all and you will win only when it is your turn to win.
Devia try the right box few times , at least I won few coupons.

Speak to the hand The game is a flash animation, not a truely interactive game.

Unless you're superstitious, it doesn't matter which box you click on, or if you click the "can't see the game? click here"(For those who don't have flash enabled on their browsers),which takes you to the same end result. You simply enter your email and it take you to an announcement page that randomly tells you if you won or not.

The flash animation is a gimmick between you and the announcement page that revs up anticipation and excitement and hopefully will encourage you to play again even if you don't win day after day.

I am curious if any of the winners have checked "no" to the magazine, and have left the two circles unchecked. That's what I do each time, and I have never won anything. I am wondering if there's a connection.

Although this game is by far much better than the one in April, you do win coupons but with everything on sale, you can't use the coupons. I always see the balloon ending up in the right box but it's not always there when I chose it.
Also, as much as I like playing and winning coupons, HSN's coupons are so restrictive that you can only use them once in a blue moon. It's nice that HSN is giving such great deals on items with birthday pricing, it cuts out our chance to use the coupons. It would be much better to allow us to use these coupons further into August after the great Birthday prices are over.
What are the new rules with these coupons? You can use them on clearance items or is that just for free shipping?

d'oh! Sick Boo hoo! Pray
