Once you fill out the form, there is no 'submit' or 'enter' button to click on. So how does one enter the contest?

I entered alright. I just followed the tabs and hit submit. I've always sewed but sometimes the items aren't here in Newfoundland, Canada so I have to buy online. But I would love this sewing room. I do crafts with my granddaughters and daughters.

This was a scam if I ever saw one. I hit the enter button and filled out the info and then it wanted proof of purchase info before I could hit the submit button. I thought I didn't have to buy any thing to enter!?!?

JC, it isn't a scam. The proof of purchase is optional. If you don't get a "submit" button at the bottom simply hit "enter" on your keyboard. Please try again. Jenx

GW. I just entered the contest too and was successful in submitting my entry just as suggested by clicking the Tab button on my keyboard until the SUBMIT button showed up. Thanks to all who helped. Hope all who were previously unsuccessful will try again. It works. Definitely not a scam, I did NOT enter a proof of purchase.

I have and use Coats & Clark Threads for almost all my sewing. I use Aleene's Tacky Glue and just glued a broken ceramic bell with the Aleene'sOriginal Tacky Glue. I also use Kick & Sew patterns and like them because they are quick and my time is limited. I do not have UPC codes available at this time.

I agree, why was the contest up if it was over in Dec. I have had problems with the site for the last month or so when trying to log in. I am lifetime member and it kept telling me I was signing in for a trial membership. I also realized that even though I paid for everything I some how didn't get everything I was supposed to. I did move but they had no problem getting my bill to me. I have to say that everything isnt bad though, they do have some good crafts and ideas.

How do I enter? There isn't an 'enter' button, or anyplace to fill out a form. This site is confusing, as it sometimes asks you for an e-mail address for a contest, but there isn't a spot to put it! I would like to enter!

In my opinion you need to redo the contest. It's only fair. Look at the ones that couldn't find the submit button. I couldn't find it either.

I, too, was unable to enter this contest!! As a Life Member I would like the opportunity to actually enter to win these contests...WITHOUT two to three (or more) pages of unwanted advertising that has absolutely nothing to do with our interests in crafting! I would like to congratulate Kathy on winning the crafting room, although I, and it looks like others, feel that I was cheated out of the chance to win. So, what gives? Do we have to answer and complete one of the "offers" that you throw into the contest? I'd really like to know why we weren't able to find the Submit button.

I think I may be able to help you ladies out! If you login to the page, this makes things a TON easier than just entering from not being logged in. Once you login you click on the Contests box. This will go to a page that allows you to scroll down to the different contests. You just click on Play Now and when the next page comes up, scroll down and click Enter to Win. Then the confirmation that says Thanks for Entering! comes up. There is no need to enter an email address, as long as you are LOGGED IN. When the Thanks page comes up, which has the 'offers', you DO NOT have to do these. Simply go back to the Contests tab up top and click on it again, scroll and choose another contest to win! As far as the product testing goes, it depends on where you live and what companies need testers. I received a test product when I was a Lifetime Member for less than a year. I also won a contest my 1st year. It is possible! Don't lose faith! :D

I also forgot to mention--if you DO receive a product to test, you DO have to resign up if you want to continue being a tester. You must sign up after every test product you receive and finish reviewing. Just some FYI.

I too had difficulty entering this contest. I logged in prior to selecting the tab at the top of the page and I believe found the play now button. I entered but was not successful in finding the information required to enter the contest each time. I thought there may have been a problem with my computer at one point until I started reading others were having similar problems. I would have loved to have won this my little Singer sewing machine finally kicked the bucket and on Soc Sec Disability there isn't another in my near future. I want to make my grand daughters some summer dresses but that is a lot of hand sewing. I will keep finding contests and hopefully win one some day in the future.

I am concerned with signing up as a whole when a company has a contest that was over MONTHS ago and it still has a page up to enter the contest 7 months later. And Here I am seeing that even as a lifetime member that you have to pay 360 for that you on ly get ONE item to test PER year? That is a major concern when putting out that kind of money. The idea behind putting out so much money would be to be GETTING IN something. This whole thing is starting to sound like a very poorly ran company, who is ripping women off of money and getting paid money from BIG companies to GIVE items away to women to test. I mean they are BEING PAID for this service and yet charging US to do their work for them???? Does this really make sense to anyone? I am on social security. I cant be affording to just GIVE my money away to large companies who can afford to be paying me instead to do their work for them.

As a lifetime member I am very upset with the way the contests are run, all you have to go through to enter, (still not khowing for sure if you are in fact entered), and the fact that you continue to run contest after they have already been won.
