Let's start a chatter thread to talk about the contests we are entering, what is crediting, and what we've won! :banana:
If you see a Twitter follower by the name of blondediaries that is me! :sunshine:
my twitter name is wdwismy2ndhome. :mickey:
I am debating the bagsbuy offer....I want that baggalini, but am cashpoor this week!!!:(
Is there a FAQ somewhere that explains exactly what this is and how to do it? I am new and trying to get the hang of it all.
What do you need help with? There are a ton of stickies but maybe we can narrow it down for you. Also check out the newbie section of the forum as there are some good threads in there too.Quote:

This is a great opportunity to use your account to click through to a merchant and review a merchant site.
The second is our Crazy Credits contest. It is the most popular contest in the forum that we usually run every month or so. It focuses primarily on offers both freebies and paid offers. It requires you to get credit during the contest for any of the offers listed in the contest thread. The best way to find these offers is to do a keyword search using the search funtion in the left side bar on the SR home page! Here's a thread found in our forum stickies that will help with some basic instructions.

The third is not really a contest as much as it is a bonus!! Tricia, our owner, has increased the payouts on some very popular merchants. If you order from any of those on the list, you will earn a little extra today and tomorrow! Here's a link to the thread with all the increases.

This thread is the chatter thread where we can talk about the contests, ask questions, and share successes! Please feel free to ask more questions if needed. We are so happy to help!
Just in case you mean "Crazy Credits" in general...here's a quick primer...Quote:

We try to pull out some of the very best converting offers for the contest...plus some new ones for our members who have played in the past.
One thing to keep in mind with the offers is that you should NOT use your best personal email address. These offers are often the ones listed in our "freebie" section which means that they might sell any information that you give them. So be truthful when you fill out the info but don't give them anything that you would not want to be sold.
Some of the offers like Bagsbuy are obviously different because they are not in the "freebie" category.
I just added the Book Closeouts offer to the Crazy Credits contest! It's been around a while and has proven to be a good one. Here are some coupons that came along with the offer when it was new. There are not expiration dates listed. I assume they are still valid. So, I'm going to list them here for those of you interested in this offer. Please let me know if you have trouble using any of them.
Code: SUPERSAVE22-5
PW: bookcloseouts.com
Details: $5 off purchase of $35 or more.
Code: SUPERSAVE22-10
PW: bookcloseouts.com
Details: $10 off purchase of $65 or more.
Code: SUPERSAVE22-20
PW: bookcloseouts.com
Details: $20 off purchase of $120 or more.
No OTX for this contest?

I'm getting an error message when I try the Dell laptop offer.
I got the Dell one to go through but it says it credits on the last offer page and it has been 2 hours and I haven;t seen credit.
Not having much luck today. :( I'm 0/3 on offers and I'm still waiting on a Magazines.com order to pend. I wonder if something is blocking credits again? :confused: I did get an OTX survey so that's good news!:clap:
I have asked this before, but still can't get the hang of it. How on earth do yo go through these offers without buying anything? I have gone through the Gucci one, for example. And can't get out without buying something. I viewed the offers, like was suggested to me before, but can't get out of it! Do I really have to buy something, or can I get through with only looking at the offers?!
If you get to the gold/silver/platnium (or equivalent) just click the number they want you to look at, decide if you want to partake in any and then close out when you can no longer go any further. You should receive a confirmation email which will allow you to set up a password to track the offer status if you choose to sign up to win the Gucci bag, etc.
i did the think fast-celebrity id offer about an hour and a half ago and was wondering how long it takes for this to credit and how long should i wait to delete my cookies. it is not listed as a fast crediting offer so it is my assumption that this is a manual credit. any info someone could give me would be greatly appreciated. :thanks:
just a small bump.:D
It's safe to clear cookies.Quote:

Hey guys!
Don't forget to put each entry into it's own post. So if you have an offer and an OTX for example put each one into its own post not both in 1 post.
have tried all the offers up till now and i gave only gotten 1 to credit . only 1 entry. not OXT yet this am and yesterday was to early to submit.:( Congrats to the rest of you though!!!!:D
So far I did 6 offers, and none of them have credited...I'm hoping nothing is up on my end... but I guess I'll stick with OTX; and maybe one or two "Big Money" Items...
finally have time to do some crazy credits... please keep doing CC... It is just bad timing for me...
Just waiting for OTX to credit on the hour... then off to do some offers... I got a Daily survey and an OTX today... whoo hoo:banana:
Just wondering if the Vista Print is a manual credit? Did it a few hours ago, got my email confirmation but don't see pending credit yet. I don't want to clear my cookies and mess something up. Thanks.
Yes, it is!Quote:

Post #8 DVCsince02
Congrats to both of you!! Please open a trouble ticket to claim your prize. In the ticket, please include the email address that you use for the forum and your mailing address so that I can send out your slippers!
Thanks for playing!
I have a question about this one. Do we have to post in that thread every day to be entered or is my post from yesterday still good?Quote:

It seems as if we need to post every day. Not sure if it can be the same thing or a new item each day.Quote:

I've reached out to our contact on this one. I didn't think this one was a delay, but I've inquired. Unfortunately, It needs to credit to be eligible for the contest. Hold onto your confirmation email because I'll need it should we have to fight for this one.Quote:

So far I'm doing good... 3 entries
-Twitter (everyone can do this... can't we find 200 SR members to do this right now, so we can hit the 400 entries)
- OTX - yeah I got one today!!!:D
- 1 out of 2 offers I've tried...
I'm just waiting for the top of the hour to see if another offer will credit. I'll keep plugging away until the end of the contest.
Same here! I decided I needed a haircut, so I did an offer and went out for that while I was waiting for the top of the hour. I think I might go do my Wii Fit now and then come back after 8 to see if the next offer creditted.Quote:

looks like there is only enough time for me to do one more offer and have it credit before the end of the contest.
so I better pick a good offer to try :sunshine2:
well, rats phooey! :( I did it hoping to make it an entry for the contest - because I can't seem to get freebies to credit, or qualify for an OTX, either. I mean, I think it'll be nice to try it out too, and the payout is great! Hope it will come thru.Quote:
