I PMd Biker*Chick but wanted to start a poll before I go to bed
IMO they clog up the board being listed separately and would be better off with one post per prize with the five links within the one post. You can choose to enter as many as you want. The appropriate instruction would be given on the post, of course.
So here's the poll. Do you want them separate, or together. Please vote/comment.
I won't be back until morning, so goodnight all.

Thank you to everyone who posts on the competitions boards. You all rock!

I can't see a poll, but I was thinking the exact same thing. Quicker all round if posted together. Please

I voted together, the same as the mag dailies, as they have a shared prize. To me each mag is just an extra entry into the same comp.0

I'm happy to post as one per prize

Can folks think of any others that could be condensed?
Laks' Wedding Mag ones for different counties springs to mind (I doubt there is more than one prize overall?) What do people think?
Are there any more?=^._.^= You will always be lucky if you know how to make friends with strange cats =^._.^=0 -
I was thinking of this too. Must take BC ages to post them. Especially when the board is running so slow
Bless the posters :A0 -
They can't be posted "condensed" when:
a) They have different end dates for the same prize
eg.
E: 08/12 Win a premium Access All Areas gift box (Daily Star)
E: 09/12 Win a premium Access All Areas gift box (OK!)
b) Sometimes one or more of the sites doesn't put the comp online at the same time as the others.
c) Sometimes the form on one of the sites is faulty.
Biker*Chick does a fantastic job with these and has a system that works well.0 -
Not bothered - happy for BC to do whatever is easiest for her0

All of the ones that are Facebook OR Twitter and one entry per person in the T&C's. I think people are duping themselves sometimes without realising. (eg Esso Thursdays)TOP MONEYSAVING TIP

I always think the poster should do what is easiest for them.0

I'd rather see them together but won't complain if they're not. I appreciate that someone is taking the time to post them
