Meet the Prize Patrol


With all the prize winning that goes on here at PCH, there’s a very lucky group of people that gets to see all the winning in real time – the PCH Prize Patrol.

The members of the PCH Prize Patrol travel the country surprising lucky cash prize winners with a Big Check, balloons, roses and champagne. While many PCH employees get the opportunity to be a part of the Prize Patrol during our big giveaways, there is a select group of Prize Patrollers called the Prize Patrol Elite who deliver most of the SuperPrizes. Interested in learning more about who makes up the famous Prize Patrol? Read on to find out more and make sure you stop by their verified fan page on Facebook for more information: The PCH Prize Patrol.
