Expired….
Just a quick side note: I just want to say this is a contest for 2,000 pairs of shoes for the entire country. Your odds of winning are small, but if you do, its a nice little freebie. I wish everyone could be positive instead of so grumpy …. (You may be frustrated, but no one is injured, maimed or mauled – unless your mouse cord got out of control while you were trying to fill out the form and tried to make you wear it as a necklace….)
But seriously folks, remember, it is just a freebie. There will be more. I promise.
Reminder: this starts at 3pm EST…. Note: I am sure this will be slow and hard to enter.. and remember, I only provide the information of whats available.
Remember the prior Dr. Oz giveaways? Well, Dr. Oz is giving away 2,011 Nike Shoes tomorrow, January 4th, 2011.
To enter the Dr. Oz Nike Shoe Givewaway, you will want to go here, tomorrow at 3pm EST.
I know some of you were frustrated with the last giveaway, but surprisingly, many readers ended up winning.
Thanks to Anne K. for emailing

sheila says

sheila says

Why do they do a contest to see who can sign-in faster than someone else ? How about us poor folks who have to actually work and don’t get a chance to click til 5pm . What a bummer.
Emily says
Thank you for posting this (along with all of your other posts!) These little contests are exciting, and if I win- great, and if not- I lost nothing! It’s very generous for your to take the time and help others save money! This mother appreciates it!
Perri McMenamin says
I was finally able to get through and got thanks for registering. I guess we have to wait and see. No conformation e mail.
amanda says
i clicked on the link for 10 min and only got the Almost Ready page, please come back at 3pm EST. this did not work for me so i am soooo bummed b/c i was ready to win!!!
yulean says
It is not working for me :) but may be in the future…he.. he
Courtney says
After about 50 minutes of refreshing the page I was able to register both myself and my boyfriend (we live in two different states, not the same household!) and I got a confirmation on the Dr. Oz Page that said “Thanks for registering!”
Now I’m just hoping and praying it went through and we’ll each get a free pair! I’m hoping we will get confirmation e-mails.
You just have to be patient and try, try again!
Brittian says
If anyone gets a conformation email will you please post that you did. I am anxious to see if it went through. Shannon thank you for all you do. I have saved so much money from your website and also have made money with the survey panel you posted before.
Shannon says
The last giveaway that was similar to this (no one could submit etc), several people reported getting the free Sketchers.. so lets hope for the same deal :)
Kristine Twardy-Todd says
@Shannon, So even when they didn’t get a “thanks for registering” they still received the free pair? I submitted my info but got an error screen when I hit the submit button. Oh well either way, here’s to hoping! :)
Anonymous says
It’s frustrating when you enter your info several times, and everytime, you get a “timed out” message. Their site should better handle these things if they are going to do them!
Thanks for passing on the info. Maybe next time :(
debbie says
i was able to fill out the information but after hitting submit it went to a can not connect page. I kept hitting refresh with no luck
dorothy says
bummer
Dutchess10 says
I don’t think that this works, becaause I clicked on the banner and it open up a different page and it gave me nothing. I also have signed up for the 11 week program and I have not recieved an email yet. :(
dorothy says
I tried over and over to get on the page for the free nike shoes ,and I still haven’t got it yet. but anyway im sure that it’s probably over by now. when free things are announced look like they would make sure that the info needed would be easy to find.
Judy says
I tried for 30 minutes, completed the form THREE times, but kept getting timed out errors. I’m glad for the people that got confirmation, but I’m super frustrated and just lost my 30 minute lunch trying!
Shirley says
It will be interesting to hear if anyone got any shoes. I really doubt it. I think this is a scam to promote Nike Shoes and Dr. Oz’s TV show. I am done with both of them after this bunch of BS. I tried to register to his loosing weight site and it kept saying my email wasn’t a legit email. I think I’d know my own address…. I used my other two email addys also and got the same message that they were not legit emails. Very disappointed Dr. Oz.
Katie says
Shannon – Thanks for posting so people had the opportunity to try for this. It’s not your fault when 100,000 people are competing for 2,011 pairs of shoes and THEIR server crashes. :)
Kim C says
@Katie,
Katie, thank you for pointing out that this wasn’t Shannon’s doing. She had no control over the contest at all. She was just passing along the info she received which is very kind of her. Several people have already posted that they got to the thank you screen so the contest isn’t bogus!
Katie K says
@Katie, Agreed! Thanks for your hard work, Shannon.
Shannon says
@Katie K,
ya’ll are sweet – I just have to laugh sometimes, because if you read some of the stuff I delete, people get angry. I mean like cursing crazy. I want to say WOAH Nelly, its going to be ok.
Shirley says
What a scam to get people to try to enter! I started trying to enter at 15 minutes before time and kept getting “we’re almost ready”. I was clicking every couple of seconds. At (2:24 p.m cst), or 3:24 est. I got the message “expired”. I DON’T THINK YOU WERE GIVING AWAY ANYTHING! At least not in my area.
Shannon says
@Shirley,
Did you ever go to the live site or did you just go to the informational site?
Denise says
I got error after error but then got to the page where you put your info in THREE times. But, when I hit submit, 2 times I got a “Network time out” box and once I got “this page will not load” error. I have no idea if it took it or not.
Rosemarie says
keeps telling me that “where almost ready” and nothing happened is this a scam?
Iamhim says
@Rosemarie,
Please see Shannon’s comment below. The link above wasn’t a link to the actual registration form….only a reminder
Marla says
After 10 minutes of trying I got, “Thank you for registering for the Dr. Oz and Nike Giveaway!”
I guess I’ll wait and see what happens. Thanks for the reminder.
beth gormley says
@Marla,
I got that too
Andi says
Donna, I got the same confirmation. We’ll wait and see if it means anything.
Iamhim says
Super bummed that the links in the above post weren’t correct. This is the correct link:
http://www.sharecare.com/static/nike-giveaway
The above links send me to:
http://www.sharecare.com/static/nike-coming-soon
Shannon says
Thats because the page wasn’t live when the POST was done folks.. It was reminding you that the shoes were going to be offered..
Iamhim says
@Shannon, Okay so a full hour after the contest began, the “coming soon link” was updated to include the link to the actual registration form.
I know it wasn’t your fault and I’m sorry if my previous post implied that. A lesson learned for me!
Danielle says
Had to keep trying and timed out once, but I tried again and I was finally able to get a confirmation. Will have to wait and see if I actually get a pair. Kind of exciting. LOL
Tracy says
Thank you for registering for the Dr. Oz and Nike Giveaway! This is the message I got after entering my info. It only took a couple of minutes. We’ll see!
MMcKenna says
I got through the registration but it just says thanks for registering. Is that it?? LOL? First the page was blank, then it took it’s time loading….then I hit submit and got an error. Hit it again and it went. So to just get “hey thanks for registering” and nothing else, I’m a bit confused LOL! I would be thrilled if I won, but it’s really crazy how it sent you from one site to another and all that!
Donna says
If you get to the form and it gives you an error after you submit, press the back button and try it again. I did that about 10 times until it finally gave me a confirmation.
Gayle E says
I also input my information, hit submit, and timed out. Guess will just have to wait and see if shoes show up in a month or two :). Maybe we will get emails regarding Dr. Oz 11-week shape-up plan, if you clicked it..
Hope, hope, hope :).
kristin says
I got to submit but then it went to a blank page….
Katie K says
I’ve successfully registered, hopefully I’m one of the first 2011. Thanks Shannon!
kristin says
I was able to submit but then it took me to a page that wouldn’t load….
ddawbb says
yup same problem here.. timed out. they’re too busy.
Donna says
That was rough. Refresh refresh refresh…finally got the form…submit, error, submit, error, submit error over and over.
I finally got a screen that said “Thank you for registering for the Dr. Oz and Nike Giveaway!” so maybe I did get some shoes in the end!
Gail says
This does NOT work
danielle says
I agree!!!!!!!!
Allyson says
got through filled out info then it said internet site cannot be opened. ugh.. super bummed!!
Amber says
Has anyone gotten a confirmation page for this yet? I got in and put in my address but then it kept timing out after I hit ‘submit’.
Allyson says
@Amber,
amber-i got the same thing! i’m sad!
shawn says
same for me too.
Lesli C says
Made it to the registration but it wouldn’t let me hit the submit button-then it timed out :-( Maybe next time-right! :-)
Angelica says
Iam tryin to go there and and it dont do anything this is some crzy stuff!!!
