Sweepstakes Count

Can someone tell me why the number of sweeps shown on My Sweeps summary page and the actual numbered count is different? Is there a limit of the number of sweeps you can have as My Sweepstakes? Thanks.
 
Only guess I can give is that maybe you have sweeps that have expired. When you go into one of your "My Sweeps" categories, look at the top of the page.If it says "you have expired sweeps" click it and you should see all your expired sweeps for that category. You can delete them if you like, but I keep the ones I have won from until the prize arrives. Thats my best answer for you. Hope it helps. Good Luck! BTW, there is no limit to the numbers of sweeps you can have in your categories that I'm aware of.

There is no limit to the number of sweepstakes you can have in your My Sweepstakes - whether SA or SP.

***HOWEVER - If you have any sweeps saved that run longer than one year, they will automatically be removed. ALL sweeps will only stay saved for one year from your save date, so if you have any saved that run longer, resave them at a later date to ensure they don't drop off.

Your individual My Sweepstakes will tell you the total of active and expired sweepstakes you have saved.

Example: if you go to a specific category, and it says you have 33, but you only see 13, the other 20 are in your expired.

While in any category, look up top, and you will see: Alert! You Have Expired Sweepstakes: Show My Expired Sweepstakes

If you wish to have an accurate account of just active sweeps, remove your expired, your count will then show active sweepstakes only.

Please periodically remove your expired sweepstakes when they have served their purpose, thank you.




I updated the TOOLS thread too :sunny:

Another thing that can occasionally make a difference in count is when a sweeps is listed in the wrong category when it is first listed. ie: say a sweeps is listed as a one entry and it is then discovered that it is really a daily entry and moved from one entry to daily, the count will be off in your daily entries by one as long as that sweeps is active. This doesn't happen too often but is does happen. I don't know why it still shows, count wise, in the wrong category, but it does.
