Old thread here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5459427

Please check it as some may still be open :T

I'll add a link to Daily thread :beer:

Thank you, here's a link to the site

Thanks

Whilst this is on page one I have wondered for some time why these competitions go on one thread whilst everything else gets posted separately?

It was a bit of a pain when all there was was a link with nothing to say what you needed to enter; some are blog comment some Instagram etc

It was also hard to keep track of end dates as they all have different ones. The end date of the thread is 31/07 but what is the end date of the competition in post 3?

How are other people keeping track?

This isn't intended as a criticism of people posting competitions just a genuine desire to know why these ones don't appear to follow normal posting "rules".

Honestly, I don't know, I just carried on from previous poster :beer:

Wacky thought then; couldn't they be posted as normal with the end date and type of competition in the title?

Also some are daily tweets or RC bonus entry but lots are once only; again good to have in the title.

Edit also have to use the "Thanks" button as a "tick" button, which means if I don't enter I don't thank which may deprive somebody of tea, sorry about that.

As Daphne01 and TickTwo are the recent main posters, perhaps they should decide, as I don't generally do Rafflecopter competitions.

This thread could be easily shut down and each posted as separate competitions if they're OK to do that :beer:

I love that they are all together and easy to keep track of. I see this thread as kind of like the Puzzler thread etc. If you like makeup then you'll be wanting to enter all of these comps over the various formats. Subscribing to this thread means that I see them all. If they were posted separately then I would miss them as I don't have time to comp on the main board atm.

Perhaps just make the alteration of adding the end date/entry format to each post?

I'll go with the flow though. I just wanted to say that I find it very handy being able to subscribe and a big thanks, of course, to the posters.

I think the original thread was for a "collection" of Luxury comps but ended up with all being listed.

I'm easy either way if I come across one I can post separately, as has been said they do have different end dates and are individual comps

I check daily usually so it's no problem and whoever spots could post

I don't want it to be any more trouble to post it was just such an odd thread. What about separately but with links to this thread? Or is that making extra work?

The main pain was never knowing the actual end dates; not being that organised and an end date comper when busy i kept missing ones I would have entered.

What about getting the thread moved to the 'regulars' board?
