    Who enters these? I do as many as I can, and won five contests so far. :cheers: Oftentimes I just make up a recipe to fit the contest. It took me a long time before I won a recipe contest, but overall I have done very well. I stink at baking, but other dishes are easy for me to enter. Note...

    What do you do when sweeps end?

    I delete them from MySweeps, although lately I'm deleting MySweeps and using Roboform exclusively. I think Admin says it save the site some bandwidth and I can enter faster using Robo. My only concern is being able to enter using a different computer. Isn't there a way to back up Robo using a...

    Wins of the year

    This has been a rough year for me to say the least, with my mother spending 7 weeks in the hospital with complications after elective surgery, and passing away in May. :cry: After this, I stopped sweeping for months afterwards, until I finally picked it up again in October.

    The stores stage so many silly shopping stunts for Black Friday. Do you have an insane plan to go shopping at 4 a.m.?

    This contest vexes me month after month, and I contacted them for an explanation and got none. Do you have to sign up for the paid membership to enter the contest? They require a membership number to sign up but the membership number is available only after paying. I don't see how to get a...

    Hobby or a job?

    Do you consider entering sweepstakes a hobby or a job? I consider it a melding of both, as it has been very lucrative for me at times, but too inconsistent to be a job. My name for it is a "jobbie." :sunny:
