Not me. But I would love to hear of someone that has! I remember as a kid putting notes in them and letting them off...obviously no one ever found them, because I never got a response!
No I have never found one but I've sent a couple off that have messages on them with notes saying to write back if found. Never got a note back either.
I have to agree with ramsam up there... I stopped participating in these balloon release thingies when I imagined some poor fish swallowing a piece of my balloon or some duck getting all tangled in its string.
not that I'm a PETA freak or anything, I was just really hacked off that I never got a note back from halfway across the world saying that my balloon changed their lives.
We did a balloon release in elementary school and out my of entire class, only two kids had their balloons found and the note returned. One went from Colorado to Michigan.

I've heard tales of them floating 300 to 400 hundred miles from where they were released. I've never been lucky enough to find one myself.
No, no I haven't. The earth hates me.
nope.
i've never found a message in a bottle either.
i feel jipped.

i just thought they got sucked into some alter-dimension like time travel, no??? :)
Never found one, but I just figured they floated up and popped and fell in the ocean and killed a dolphin or something.

No, I never get cool stuff like that. No balloons, no messages in a bottle.
Jessica, that made my day. I was starting to wonder if it really ever works!
I have been looking for a message for some time now. I'm crazy like that.
Does a used condom count?
No?
Really?
Sheesh. You are so SPECIFIC.
The boys had me write a note and send it to Heaven when I was little. I don't remember what I wrote but I am sure it came true!

Never found one, but have let some off. Good question???
I thought they just popped after they got up too high?....That doesn't mean I didn't let a few go.
