Experienced Contester shares his tipz - Canada USA Work from home !!!

Hey Hey

Wanted to share my methodology behind contesting and help potentially gain some THC'ers some winz 🙂
Well, I have been contesting for about 12 years now and I have won QUITE a bit actually QUITE a bit haha
to a newb it would be daunting to figure out where to start so let me give you some tips and tell you what
I have won and give you a list of what I am in the running for currently !!

First things first
check out CONTEST GIRL

Now this is a free site so awesome and Linda (the girl that runs it) does a heck of a job at making sure we stay addicted !!
insane dailies, weeklies, monthlies, newbies and other things like smaller run blog contests and freebies

Best of all you can chill and listen to drum and bass while you are working hahaha a total bonus
now time wise, what does it take to enter these things? well you will need about 3 hours initially and about 1/2 an hour a day to keep up with the dailies
the enter once contests are lower odds but the dailies give you a better chance at winning cause you enter every day-silly !!

YOU NEED: Extreme patience, not to go totally bazerk entering endless captcha codes, trivia questions, skill questions, you need to not break a sweat when the page doesn't load, the contest doesn't work properly, or after trying 4 times to enter an extremely vague looking captcha code...once you get your first few wins you will get more motivated - and some years will be better than others some months bonus, like wooooo
anyways back to the method

ok so you have visited the contest site and there are a few (canada has some paid ones-but this one is good for canada and USA and best of all its FREE)
you create an account so you can save your dailies and weeklies and they even have a nifty comment section on each contest/post that gives you the answers to trivia questions, daily TV codes, and allows you to vent if the contest is really ruining your day hehe
next use an email that you will just devote to contesting (endless spam, I am up to 200 emails a day now, but you can't miss the one that will change your life forever) I know, no pressure lol
next you need to fetch yourself roboform it is a form filler tool for your browser - it is nifty and worth the $20 a year -I think you can get 1/2 off your first year if you look around and anyways totally worth it for contesting with this tool takes about 1/2 an hour for 50 contests and without I dunno would take like 7 hours lol

next fill in your form filling info and get used to how you can use roboform on the contest sites to enter endless forms of data EVERY day over and over day in day out

there are other handy chrome extensions that you can get that will make your contesting much easier like: Scroll Memory, note anywhere, 1-click timer,etc

now why I am I so passionate about something that seems so painful?
well.....here is what I have won in my decade of contesting
(it may not seem like much to somebody that works for a living but I use contesting to supplement my income because I am on permanent disability so for a 1/2 an hour a day I have achieved pretty great things and you can too-keep in mind I am from canada and I use the Canadian aspect which has a much more stress inducing skill testing question aspect that the USA contesters don't have)
