What type of competitions generate sales?

Just whizzing through a load of comps and thought -
"I wonder which type of competition generates the most sales for a competition organiser/ sponsor?"
I'm not the sort to be swayed by advertising, but... I have returned to a site when I was looking for a specific item, and they were the cheapest, so in a way their advertising - by- competition worked.
So my question is:-
Of all the types-
fb, tw, rafflecopter, spot the logo on website, dailies, simple form, newletter sign- up, email entry etc.
Which is more likely to make you visit their webite/ shop and or make a purchase?
Purely out of interest- I am not a company, nor do I work in marketing!!!(your details will not be passed to any third parties).

I'm guessing that the ones that you have to pick an item you like from the website and say why you like it would generate a lot of sales as more people will see things that they actually want to own0

The purchases I have made have been purely based on the prize being advertised. I have purchased products that I didn't win, and went on to buy the rest of a trilogy of books after winning the first one.
I also think some of my wins will result in future purchases as I have really enjoyed the product, or found the product to be fantastic quality meaning I would favor that brand over others.£630/ £20140 -
The only time I've gone onto purchase something was from a fashion site that offered a £10 off voucher at the end of the comp - went on to browse to see if they had anything worthwhile and discovered they stocked a hard-to-find clothing brand my boyfriend loves, and they often have it on sale!
They don't appear when you search for the brand on google so I never would have known they existed if it weren't for the comp...they've had a lot of repeat business from me now
