HSN sweep question

I already won a $10 gc a couple weeks or so ago and I was wondering, do I keep entering for entries for the GP or am I already entered into the drawing?

TIA
 
Miki ~ I don't know ~ that is a question for Amy...she is good at figuring that kind of stuff out or LDS either one. Those rules throw me for a loop, so I trust my fellow SA'ers to figure it out for me ~ lol!
 
miki - I REALLY wish more IW's that have a sweeps GP/prizes would either have a 2 step entry - ie: log in, entered for the sweeps, step 2 press continue, or play for the IW portion.

Even better, I like the ones that you are only entered for the sweeps portion when you first sign up - that way, if you win & drop it, you aren't at a disadvantage!!!.

My rule of thumb is to drop them when I win when it's 1ppp so I dropped it after I won, JIC.

If you want to continue entering, check the rules for certain phrases/words - ie: "awarded" to see if unclaimed/won by accident prizes will or won't be re-awarded. If they will, keep entering - if not? NOTHING worse than wasting prizes IMHO!!!
 
That makes so much sense, thank you for the tips and I agree, wasted time means less sweeps or daily duties completed! I think I will just drop the sweep since I had won. I know my chances for the GP are very slim but, it is a nice dream. :sleepy:

One sweep I tried to read over today was the pepsi stuff sweep. I couldn't find anything to do with "limits" on prize wins but, I could have missed something. I am trying to win the video/flip camera, it's the main prize I want to win (besides $$$$$) with my points and I had won that Zune. I'll just keep entering and see what happens.

Thank you Amy, the list of rules was so long I missed it! So, I gather I could win one of each prize :) I need to focus solely on the camera!

Looks like I wasted points on the Zune though because, I didn't know I had won so I lost points on trying to win that one also. Thats ok though, I'm just grateful to even win this sweep!
 
I'm so grateful I can put in a search term {I used Limit} in IE I go to EDIT>VIEW>FIND and get a box - in FF it's part of the toolbar - especially when the rules are anything but black writing on a white background - makes my eyes jump like crazy & then i get a dang migraine!!! :cry: :crazytongue:

I didn't know you could use that feature. I use the msn browser that I downloaded a long time ago from CNET. I'll try that sometime, thank you.

I haven't used that browser, but I'm sure it has a search function.

I LOVE learning new tricks, and also LOVE to share them, so you are VERY welcome miki!!! :headbang:
