Have you heard about bid4prizes.com? They are a new kind of sweepstake game that offers a chance to win some really cool prizes simply by offering to pay as little as possible for them. I know it sounds strange and quite frankly – it is. But it’s also really cool and very fun.

When I first heard about the Bid 4 Prizes concept it was difficult for me to understand. After all, I’m used to auctions working in such a way that whoever is willing to pay the most –wins the item. But once you get the hang of the way bid4prizes.com works you will be hooked.

The idea is to try and make the lowest bid on an item while not having the same bid as somebody else. The minute two people bid the same sum their bids are canceled. You can either bid using their site or by using your cell phone via SMS. Try them out, you can win some great free gifts (you don’t actually have to pay the sum you bit – it’s just for game’s purposes) or even a cash prize.
