The other day, I tried to enter one of the LuckyMag Sweepstakes that supposedly does not expire until Monday March 16, 2015. Unfortunately, when I clicked on the link, the page which the entry form is supposed to be on would not load. I am wondering if I am the only one experiencing this problem. Has anyone else had trouble getting the entry forms for some of those LuckyMag sweepstakes to load recently? For whatever it is worth, I tried getting the page to load in both the latest version of Firefox and Internet Explorer 11 without any success. Anyway, once again, just wanted to find out if I am the only one not able to get the entry forms to load for some of those sweepstakes. Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
Anybody else not able to get entry forms to load for some of the LuckyMag Sweeps?

I couldn't get to the sweepstakes/giveaways so I tried everything and I'm not sure what worked. I use Firefox. I allow pop-ups on their site.
Other people probably have an easier way - but here is what worked for me:
When I clicked on the title of any LuckyMag sweeps in SAs listing I got this page:
http://www.luckyshops.com/breaks
On that page, there are selections from left to right across the top of the page, "Shop the Magazine, What's New...Breaks"
Hover over "Breaks" and you get a list of Giveaways.
Click on the last one, "All Giveaways."
That takes you to another page. Scroll down just a little bit until you see, "View Slideshow."
Click on View Slideshow. There are now 14 slides, with an arrow to advance to the next one. For each one, on the right, there is a text description, with a red "Enter Here."
Clicking on the "Enter Here" brings up the entry form. Once I found the entry form, I had no problems entering. For me, the problem was getting this far. I was able to enter all the ones I wanted to enter.
Like I said, this worked for me, but some savvy sweeper probably has a shortcut!

Troubleshooting tips/steps:
1] make sure you are up to date on your browser/FLASH & allow the site thru your browser
2] Disable popup/adblockers, then
3] reload & retry,
4] use a different browser or,
5] Try again later.
TIP: One of the GREAT things about FaceBook & Twitter is you can check them when sweeps go down/you can't login or when a sweeps requires a code - just do a search for the sponsor and read their WALL/post to it
TIP: Use an addy you plan to always have - some sponsors only ask you to register 1x & pick a user name and password, which will work for all their FUTURE sweeps. If you change your addy mid-sweeps, it will look like you are trying to enter with multiple addys to them.
TIP: when I have trouble with a promo, I search for their home page and use their CONTACT US form if logging into their home site won't work, then once I get that resolved, I go back to the promo
TIP: Can't find a sweeps form or it won't allow entry? Try going through the rules, either through the link they post or by deleting the end of the address.
