Does anyone have suggestions on how to keep track of FB winner notifications (when they don't contact you any other way)?  Lost out on an IPAD, cause I had 12 hrs to respond to "winner" notification on THEIR page.

 sunny I use to be so orgainized and remembered everything. Not so good anymore. If I happen to see that the winner will be posted on FB page. I add it to my favorites with something like: FB check 9/30.  I'm sure that there are other more time consuming methods such as adding it to your online calendar or phone, get a planner and write them down. I just find adding it to my favorites works for me without alot of extra work.

Oh justbeach03, I know how bad that hurts  love My DS lost out on a $500 win once when he didn't check his email for too long. He rarely sweeps now.

When I get on my comp., the 1st thing I do is log on to SA, FB, and Twitter. I find being already logged in keeps me from getting hung up when I open sweeps links, and I can see right away if I have a new message.

I check the rules on FB sweeps I enter {well, I check them for every sweeps I enter, JIC  crazy tongue } I look for out of the ordinary like:

if it ends early on the last day,
there is a fast turn around for responding,
how/when they notify, etc.,

then I use the | Post Note | feature to post a note on it so I'll be reminded when I enter my sweeps if it's an IW/daily, since I have NO short term memory.

You could also use Remind Me - another AWESOME tool  headbang

Have you checked out this thread yet:

I do that too, but they get lost in with all the others I bookmark  crazy tongue Maybe I need to make a tab for JUST those, huh?  laughing

I also write them on a desk calendar I have on the wall - my "office" is part of our living room  crazy tongue whistle And I look at it throughout the day so that works good.

All very good ideas.  I use roboform and don't really save much here on SA anymore.  Will start "tagging" my sweeps for those random notifications. The IPAD would've been my first win, but I did will a $360 Little Giant Extreme Ladder instead.  So I can't complain too much.  Thx all!

It's just sooo time consuming to look on a FB wall for the 1 little post about the winner. GoPro give a daily, but only post on FB.  Hope I haven't lost out again, cause I cant spend the time!
