Does anyone know if we have a forum thread explaining, to new people, the "My Sweepstakes" feature and how to use it?
This thread on "How To Use The Tools To Get The Most Out OF SA Features" addresses that question and others. Here is the link, plus the first post:
It is stickied in "Newbies" and also stickied in "Questions and Answers."
http://www.sweepstakesplus.com/smf/how-to-use-the-tools-to-get-the-most-out-of-sa-features-t31956.0.htmlWant to know what tools SA has that makes it the BEST sweeps site on the net???
If you are an old hand at entering sweepstakes online, you will find the transition
easier than you imagined, and if you are brand new to entering sweepstakes online, you will find that this thread will help you to quickly and easily understand the tools and how to utilize them to aid you in entering and tracking your sweepstakes entries.
SweepsCheck: Mark those sweeps you've entered/decided AGAINST entering. Makes doing end of the month sweeps a snap! Also allows you to quickly see the newest added, as you check back throughout the day, without having to look at the ones you already decided on!!! Remember - click Save my Sweepstakes or refresh the page if you have pop ups allowed at SA, to save.
Some people have been asking how to use our SweepsCheck feature so I'll answer that question in this posting.
1. First, Register for free on our site.
2. Second, Login and navigate into any sweepstakes category.
3. Third, Find a Sweepstakes that you want to submit your entry for
and enter that contest.
4. Fourth, Place a check in the check box next to the listing that you've just entered.
* Now any time you login that sweepstakes will be checked off and the date you entered the sweepstakes will automaticly display next to that sweepstakes. This SweepsCheck feature allows you to enter every single sweepstakes on our site without missing any and keeping track of when so you don't disqualify yourself.
Kind of a very simple solution to keep track of your sweepstakes and its is FREE!
SweepsCheck remembers so you don't have to!
Have Fun!

end of month sweeping is going back and seeing if any of the sweeps that are fixing to end that month were not entered or need entering that had not previously been entered. the end of month sweeps usually have hundreds to 1000's that end at the end of that month and if you have checked sweeps you have entered you only have to skim over those that were not checked to see if any are worth entering.
}
Neither SweepsCheck nor MySweeps actually enters you in a sweepstakes.
SweepsCheck date stamps the listing. It is handy for marking off sweeps you have already entered so you don't enter again and disqualify yourself. It is also helpful for a 24 hour sweep so that you can see what time you entered and only enter again when your 24 hours are up.
MySweeps creates a list of sweeps for you. I use it mostly for Daily sweeps that I want to visit each day, and Weekly sweeps that I go through once a week. It lets me quickly find the sweeps I want to keep entering so that I can get in as many entries as they allow.
My Sweepstakes: A place to keep sweeps you've selected to enter. Just log in, then click | Add to My Sweepstakes | to change it to | Remove from My Sweepstakes | and click Save my Sweepstakes or refresh the page if you have pop ups allowed at SA.
Once in My Sweepstakes you can access/utilize the following tools:
Broken Link: if you find a mistake [wrong url, etc] or the sweeps ended early, report and it will be quickly updated.
Personal Sweepstakes Notes: A place to put notes to a sweeps that only YOU can see!!! PERFECT for anything that is only of importance to YOU!!!Post/View Comment: notes EVERONE can see - we share tips/UPC's/trivia/etc. And let each other know if there is a problem with a sweeps - no more searching to see if it's only you/your comp!!!
To get email notifications when a member posts a comment, just Click Watch to change it to UnWatch - no need to search!!!
Remind Me: perfect for odd running sweeps like weekly/monthly/qtrly/etc. Used in conjunction with Notes and SweepsCheck it makes keeping track so much easier!!!
Expired My Sweepstakes: access those expired listings that you entered.
Expired Sweepstakes: access all expired listings.
Expiring Soon Sweepstakes: Link is on the Home Page. Lists by date and category all of the listings that will expire in the next 2 weeks.
