    you can down load an extension that turns your pc to a mobile & that helps although I have found that not all the comps appear on the mobile versions & found it really annoying to use

    Some of the browser extensions were discussed in this thread.

    Alternatively, you could try entering on an iPad or other tablet.

    I know, took me all day doing it on/off. I can't believe anyone could do that every day, that's serious dedication..

    I don't know whether others would consider my method time effective or not, but I could never get the disable such-and-such thing to work so I'm stuck with the ads!

    I open say Cosmopolitan, sign in, then I open every comp I want to enter in a new tab and enter the answers. Then on each one, I click submit, wait for the video to start, mute it, and then push the tab out with the cursor so it becomes a new window. I do this for all, then by hovering the cursor over the chrome icon at the bottom of the screen I can watch all videos playing at the same time - they all come up as a line of small screens. If I'm lucky they even play while I'm dealing with the others. For very short videos it can be a bit of a faff, but if I get that annoying girl wittering on about hair products it can shave a good few minutes off the process!

    I enter using iPad so I don't get the videos, thankfully, it takes me about an hour, but if I do the extra entries through Twitter then it can take me 2 hours, so I now only do the extra Twitter entries for the ones I really want, how many if the extra entry routes does anyone else do?

    I don't do any as it doesn't gain you an extra entry, just allows you to enter more than the 25 limit, I believe

    Oh I didn't realise that, lol, I won't bother wasting that extra hour anymore. i started doing them again about 2 months ago, didn't start up the c2w again though, received my first prize today from Prima magazine for some facial scrub, though it did take ages to be delivered, looking forward to using it later.

    There's a 25 limit? Is that per magazine (I'm not sure I've seen 25 up before ha) or is that you're allowed 25 entries over the course of the competition?

    I've been doing the additional a few times, so clarification would be appreciated so I can figure if it's worth it. :)
