Earn Additional Contest Entries

PLEASE READ THOROUGHLY.

Getting Credit For Your Entries

Any additional entries you earn will be applied to all of the contests this week. To get credit for your entries you will need to email me at contest[at]vanillajoy[dot]com using the following format. Emails that do not follow this format will be deleted and your entries will not be counted.

  1. Email me from the same email address each time you report your earned entries.
  2. Include the following information in the subject line:
    1. First & Last Name, Number of Additional Entries
    2. Ex: Amanda Knight, 10
  3. In the body of the email, tell me what you did to earn your entries and give me URLs so I can check it all out.

You can send as many emails as you need to to get credit for all your points, like if you earn them at different times. Each contest ends on a different day, so additional entries will only be counted on contests that have not already ended.
