Brand spanking new and already confused

[cookiegirl]

Hello everyone. I'm brand new (well I joined a while back but never used the site and never paid so now I am determined and went ahead and paid for the plus) a few minutes ago. I got an email that said to logout of the regular site which I did and then login to the plus site. The link that it sends me to just tells me the difference between the regular and the plus--there is no place to login. I was able to login to the forums but cannot find the sweeps side. When I click on main site it takes me right back to the difference between the two sites.

Can someone please help me and point me in the right direction? I'm very confused. Also, when I go under my account and look at subscriptions is says that nothing is there but I just purchased a 3 month sub for $8. Am I doing something wrong?

Sorry to be a pain first thing!

cookiegirl welcome aboard! NO question is a pain to answer - if it pertains to this {SA/SP} site and/or entering sweepstakes

The PLUS site is located at sweepstakesplus.com

Thread: How to get started without overwhelming yourself
https://www.sweepsadvantage.com/for...et-started-without-overwhelming-yourself.html

I always start at the beginning when anyone has a question about seeing SA or Plus.

First things first -make sure you log out of SA, then log in to Plus and stay logged in. If you go back and forth, you will pick up an SA cookie. I find it better to stay in Plus.

Next, the forums. To me, the forums look mostly the same except that in Plus, the first thread is "Sweepstakes Plus Members" which you will not see in regular SA.

The sweeps listings - In SA and SP you will have access to the same sweeps, but in Plus, you will see that there are categories for Facebook, Twitter and Blogs.

The Plus Members Only Sweepstakes - (in addition to Amy's answer) a new easy way to find this sweeps is from the Sweeps Plus Home Page, where it is listed in the column on the left:

Thank you so much for your response. I think I was just super tired last night while I was trying to figure it out so I gave it a rest and came back tonight and think that I have it now. I am not going to read over the information that you provided and hopefully, I can get started sweeping soon! Thanks again for your help and the welcome! I am happy to be here!
