If you live in the USA it depends on how high you income is without the value of the prizes. If the giver gives you a 1099 with the value of the prize that is usually becomes the taxable amount. If you get proof showing that you could have bought them for less then you can use that amount as the value. For most people 10 to 20% of the value of the prizes.
