Only problem with that could be if you enter a contest...

When I won my trip to Miami, they called and were not leaving messages. Each week they drew 10 names, and if person #1 didn't answer, they went on down the list. I answered becuase it was a Michigan number (313) area code. I may not have it had been an 800 #.

Of the 9 people selected, only 1 person was the first name drawn that week.
Just something to consider!
