  3. I would like to know if the winner is acutually ramdonly selected from a big bin in which all the enteries are placed in. I always enter online, so all the entries in which people enter online are printed out and put in this bin for the day of the drawing? I just want to thank HGTV for making dreams come true. I love HGTV, it’s #1 for me. I look forward to seeing the 2010 HGTV Dream Home being built in my beautiful Land of Enchantment, New Mexico. Good Luck to All!

  4. Just so you know, as the Dream Homer WInner's granddaughter, although the taping may not have been the actual night that the show was aired, they were certainly surprised and overwhelmed. It shocks and offends me at all of the rude accusations and comments, when this is a fair and honest RANDOM DRAWING… my grandparents entered for ten years and never thought they'd win in a million years. It was truly a blessing and HGTV was so good to them throughout the experience. I saw the dream home in person, it was beautiful and I could only dream of living in Sonoma one day. (Our family was in one of the videos, I was one of the grandkids on the porch, tehe) God has truly blessed our entire family from this experience, and thanks to Him my grandparents are gong to live a financially comfortable, fulfilling life and accomplish everything they desire; they are the most deserving people I know, and we are all deeply grateful and are all overjoyed from the experience. Thank you to all of the positive bloggers, and shame on the negative ones that claim HGTV is rigged. Not so people, not so!

  5. I must say I am another one of those folks that a hard time believing that it is all random. If you read the rules you will not that they have the right to place a bunch of random people and pick from them. Besides the million or so entries.I have never seen one of these shows pull up in front of a home like mine. That being a rual, not so upper middle class home. One that has dirt bike and go-cart parts scattered across the front. I just wont to go on the record that if I should win please surprise me at my work, I would just die if America saw my boys mess. I will continue to dream my dream and hope I am chosen, it would be such a life changing event, from renter to home owner Wow! Thanks for the dream and o yea Pick me, pretty please!!!!

  6. Wow! I'm certain they are enjoying every retired moment of their lives. What an amazing experience this must have been!

  7. This is a random drawing and should not be reflected about race at all. It is basically the luck of the draw, not where people voted for the person to win.

    Good Luck to Everyone who entered no matter who you are !

  8. I think it should be illegal for HGTV to select an alternate winner if the original winner does not meet their selection process. If your name is drawn, you should be the winner, no matter if you are a murderer, drug addict or whatever. A winner is a winner no matter what.

  11. I’d like to say congrats to the winner! Yes I was a little dissapointed that I wasn’t ambushed but there is always next year:) so people don’t be haters and just keep your head up. Dreaming gives people something to look forward to “a gift” not an obligation. Thank you HGTV for a chance at a beautiful home.
