question on how to organize in SA

hi, this is probably a dumb question. I'm just a regular member of SA, not a Plus member. Ok, you know how you check off the little box of the sweeps that you enter- well, is there a way to *sort* or just pull up those checked boxes in a particular category so its just those checked ones that show? Right now I am wading through the 53 pages of the Facebook category - page by page finding the ones that I have checked and I'm thinking I could save so much more time by just having all my checked ones showing, one after the other after the other- but do I have to be a Sweeps Plus member for that benefit????
 
Have you read the stickied thread above:

I have a tip on page 3 that should help you:

I go by category, sort by date added, C&P Entry Date to FIND and only look at the ones that don't have SweepsCheck marked off.

Then I just go down the page and add the ones I'm interested in by category only, and when I'm done with the page, I hit save.

THEN I go to SWEEPSPOP, selecting Check all SweepsCheck to mark all sweeps as entered/looked at because I don't save them for later.

fyi - I've found sweeps that were moved from the wrong category that I would have missed out on by doing it this way. Plus, I don't have to remember which day I last looked if {when :whistle: } I fall behind! :crazytongue: :laughing:

thank you but its just not working for me. I've been checking off the boxes of , say, the Daily ones I enter - ok? so today I click on the Daily category and then click on "Show my sweepstakes for this category" and nothing comes up- ??

so I have to go through all the pages to find all the ones that I have ent'd that want to enter again..its some 40 + pages to wade through. If there was a way to just bring up the ones that were checked then maybe it would be only 20 pages of one contest after another to enter...could enter them much quicker that way

kacor7 to save facebook sweepstakes to my sweeps you do have to be a plus member.

Sorry kacor7 - I missed that you were talking about FB sweeps.

Yeah, as deerwalker notes only PLUS members can save them:

Facebook - it's another sweeps platform - if you are having problems with FB, check out this thread :wave:

SA not SP member?

Facebook & Twitter Contests will not save because they only have a place to be saved in PLUS - you either save them to that category in the drop-down, or into whichever category YOU name.


Facebook doesn't run sweepstakes - it's just another sweeps platform - sponsors choose to use it because it is so popular.

At 1st, it was just lesser known/local sponsors. Now it runs the gamut from those lesser known/local to National/well known sponsors, so we have to make sure we read the rules - some will say you have to pick up the prize!

Still others will offer prizes to all, but only provide them in certain States, so I *always* check out the sponsor before I enter!

kacor7 - if PLUS is not feasible, why not set up your own system - like:

In IE & in FF I'd name a folder FB, then save the links with any info {like date it ends, title, etc} to it for daily entry.

The tip I suggested is still helpful, in that you'll know which ones you've already looked at.
