This is a question Winning

I once won a gas boiler from The Guardian. Tell us about times you've won, and the excellent and/or crappy prizes you've lifted.

I've noticed that
The winner doesn't always get a mention. I know because when the newsletter comes out, the first thing I do is search for my user name.
Yes, I'm that self-absorbed.

Well
With the tendency to submit mini-essays, a lot of winning entries are too long.

The only time I've won QotW - it's the top answer in my profile -
it didn't get so much as a whisper in the newsletter.

I once had a line from a QotW story mentioned (it was the one about a Stoke shopkeeper complaining about hard-to-understand decimal currency in the early 1990s), but even then I wasn't credited.
