Oh, and the $50.00 savings coupon is really only 10% off up to $50.00.
And the 20% coupons, which I win mostly, is only for items priced above $75.00 and I believe can only be used on regular priced items. Now, using a 20% on any item, sale or not, over $75.00 is a deal!!! But HSN won't allow it!!!Not talking Think Shame on you Brick wall

i always think it looks like the balloon is in the middle every-time...tell us where the balloon is at when you win the prize...please, tell us!!!! yes i wish it would show where the balloon is really at when we loose.....i have not won at all and i play every-day!!!!! good-luck everyone....

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.





Yes, it's just like the Snowflake game, the same javascript, the balloon is always in the box on the right.

I just wish I knew if I should always select the box on the right, or if it even matters.

I think it's fixed, and it doesn't matter which box you choose, you win according to the secret rules set up in the computer system. For example, my mother who rarely buys anything gets constant 15% coupons. I, who shop several times a week, get smaller coupons, I got one for free shipping so far, no percentages off.

I'd like to believe it's all random, but I don't.

I got a free ship code too....I always get them on the first day - then the winning drops off abruptly. I think the first day is just a teaser.


That is my experience EXACTLY !!!

My experience is that the winner is always on the right side. However, I don't think accuracy counts. I think they award prizes based entirely on criteria that only they understand and pre-program.

The game definitely is not a "game". Its all pre-determined before you even click the button.

It does not matter which box you select. Let the game play out, push your email and before you have even chosen a box, you'll get an email telling you what you have won (if you won). This suggest there is nothing random about the game and you aren't reallly playing to "find the balloon."

I have played this game every day since it started and the box ALWAYS ENDS UP ON THE RIGHT SIDE! The problem is that even though I am choosing the correct box, I don't win anything that way. I finally got smart after a few times, and picked different boxes, thereby winning 10% off a couple of times. I wonder if they can legally set up the game this way. It specifically says to pick the box with the balloon in it and win and that is definitely not happening!Cool

Hugs & Blessings! ~Carrie

I completely agree. It's really not a "game", totally rigged from the start~Carrie

I won a $20 gift card this morning and I haven't ordered in AGES from HSN. So you don't have to spend money to win...just sayin'. BTW, it was on the right.
