Is there a list of all active sweepstakes and contests?

I thought it might be fun to enter into every contest and sweepstakes I possibly can for a week or so. Is there a centralized list of these things? If not can someone give me pointers on how find contests especially ones that are off the beaten path. Perhaps if the hive mind works in unison this thread can make for a nice list of contests to apply to. Thanks.

There's no requirement in the US for an organization running a contest or sweepstakes to register it anywhere, so you won't find any completely comprehensive list - just consider that in scale, these may range from the latest McDonalds pull-off tab contests, and state-run lotteries, down to your local church raffles.

That doesn't mean there's no place which gathers information about as many contests and sweepstakes as it can, but you won't find a universal list.

Best answer: My wife uses http://www.online-sweepstakes.com/

She says "It’s the best one out there!"

She has actually won us a trip to Santa Fe and $500 at Drugstore.com!
