Consider talking to your tax preparer and researching about your tax responsibility.

What does "age of majority (sometimes abbreviated as AoM+) in your state or province" mean?
The age of majority is the threshold of adulthood as it is conceptualized in law. It is the chronological moment when children legally assume majority control over their persons and their actions and decisions, thereby terminating the legal control and legal responsibilities of their parents over and for them.
http://en.wikipedia.or
In most U.S. states, the age of majority is 18, except for Nebraska and Alabama (19), and Mississippi (21). The age of majority in American Samoa and Puerto Rico is 14.

Occasionally, a less than ethical sweep will get posted. You might end up finding unauthorized charges on your phone bill. This is called "cramming". Once you contact the company that's charging you, and you have requested your phone company remove the charge, you can file a complaint with the FCC.

I guess if this is what I'm bitching about, my life must not be too bad.
BUT why are there so many new contests being posted that aren't in the right format??? I mean, the FAQ is pretty clear about how you should post a contest. IDK, I guess I'm just being biotchy.
That is all. Move along. Nothing more to see here....

Sponsor name, Sweepstakes name, and End Date (including month, day, YEAR) in the title is essential when searching the forum for duplicates when posting a new sweep.
I love that there are a lot more SDers sharing their finds with the community. Now, if we all just work together & follow the posting guidelines, everything would run smoother & leave more time for WINNING!

I do have a question, though. Could you tell me how you find the contests that end on a certain date? I used to put the end date in the search box, but that hasn't worked in a long time.
Appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.

Why would you try and use the tags in SD when it's so much easier to just keep things in bookmarks?
For any multi-entry sweeps, I just bookmark them in their own folder (takes about 5 seconds). At the start of every day/week/month, I just go to that bookmarks folder in Firefox and click Open all in Tabs. From there I just tab through each one and enter them quickly. If a sweeps is expired it'll usually say so, so I just remove it from the bookmarks so there's no real need I think to keep track of expiration dates. Any special codes for IWGs are usually saved in the form once I run it once, so I don't have to keep track of those. This way it really only takes me no more than half an hour a day to go through my 40-50 IWGs and 40-50 daily entries.
With as many as I enter a day, it seems like it would be a little too tedious to have to click on each hyperlink from Excel when I could just have each category in a bookmark group and open them all at once. Keeping track of when you enter/how many entries you have could be nice for statistics I guess, but it doesn't necessarily give you an advantage per se.

Also, while keeping track of total entries really is more for stats than anything (I'm just anal that way), the last time entered comes in really handy for 24-hour sweeps. I've found that a lot of the ones listed here as daily entry are actually once per 24 hours so you have to keep track of last entry to avoid possible disqualification. Not all of them will tell you that you already submitted within 24 hours but the rules may disqualify duplicates. I'm sure there are dozens of methods that different people use to organize but was simply providing my own feedback to anyone wanting advice.
