When is the best time to enter IW

So, I'm getting a little tired of hearing the "AWWWwww" in the IW's and the sorries, darnit. Is there a "hot" time of day to actually play IW or is it more on an individual basis? I generally play them in the mornings, and I'm only just getting the subway chip wins. :popcorn:
Any advice out there?
 
I dont think there is a magic time.. It would be nice though huh? :laughing: I enter very early in the morning. around 4 am and have been lucky. The middle of the night is a good time too as there arent as many people entering. The best thing to do,even though I dont, :laughing: Is to mix up the times ya enter. Im just stubborn so I keep entering at the same time everyday.
 
I don't think there is a magic time to enter. The most important thing is to enter every day you can. I have gone months without a win and then suddenly things turn around on the instants. Persistance is the key. Good Luck!!

Sweeping is a hobby that is all about timing. Especially for those elusive instants! IF you enter at the exact right moment, you will win. If not? Sad to say you won't. But I assure you - it's nothing personal, and those who win a lot don't have any "secrets" - they are just consistent, persistent, and patient.

The sweepers credo? Enter and forget it. Always be happy for those that win - even when they win "your" prize :laughing: - and be positive you will win.

Reminding myself of the sweepers credo is how I keep my positive attitude, and my sanity.

I really believe that if you go into it thinking you can't win, well, you'll MAKE yourself right so often you'll start believing it!!! I truly do believe you have to have a positive attitude - don't get hung up on what others are doing - just focus on entering, then move on to something else - like posting so we can get to know you!!!


Hang in there - and enter, enter, enter - you'll be posting a win before you know it!!! And remember - every day brings new opportunities to win!!! :headbang:



I faithfully entered an IW:

that had awesome prizes, and I couldn't win spit :cry: - then, a few months after it ended, I got an email saying I won a laptop!!! It wasn't the GP but I guess someone who won it was DQ'ed/failed to get in their affy? :scratch:

Anyway, that's why I really don't sweat it if a really good IW that I enter faithfully comes and goes - you just never know what can happen!!! So, keep entering, change up your entering times/order, and it WILL happen!!! :headbang:
 
I usually enter in the mornings but I played one afternoon and won quite a few it just has to be the right time , Wins will come...
JUST PLAY EVERYDAY :headbang:
 
I don't agree with Amy at all..

Sweepstakes is not a hobby :nono:

it's an obsession :laughing:

There isn't a magic time to win.... it does always seem to be the time I'm not entering tho :cussing: :laughing:

Sometimes, I enter when I feel lucky;
But I try to enter everyday
You have to be careful because some run on a 24 hour clock;

So if you enter at 1:00 pm on Monday and then try again
At 9:00 am on Tuesday, it will; not let you.

I noticed that sometimes when I win on the instants its about a quarter after the hour.
I won an Xbox at 6:15am and a party book at 5:15pm. Some of the contests "pick" the winner after they "update" the site and that seems to be at :15 after the hour.

Something new I've started is to enter my IW as soon as I log on to my computer. Since I'm logging on at different time each day it kind of mixs up the times when I'm entering. So far no IW but I've only just started doing that.

Good Luck Everyone :sunny:
