Yesterday was weird day on SYW, at least for me. I tried playing the Xtra and other games at Shopyourway.com and the Winit app multiple times during the day, using Windows desktop, iPad and iPhone. It was nearly impossible. Screen would freeze, go black, get one of several error messages, or games would run sloooooooow. Several times games just skipped the spin/skip screen and went to the next game.

But, I still eked out $1.30 in nickels and dimes on the day. Of course, this was also a day when other things got in the way so I only played a couple of the WW/Bonus games (losers, of course).

FWIW, I was able to get through everything yesterday without those kinds of issues. It was sometimes a little slow but nothing that bad. Not sure what was going on. :dunno: Looks like I ended up with $1.25 in small change, plus the $1.

Ah, there it is now! This week's Sweeps Weekly email includes another 3-day-only $5 off $10+ freecash surprise points offer (expires Tue 5/22). Good at Sears or Kmart. Now if only Sears will fix their broken website today... (update: appears to be in the process of being fixed now, 11:30am CT).

Go click the "Shop Now" button in your email to make sure you get the offer (sometimes that seems to be needed but some people say it wasn't needed, can't hurt anyway), but here is the Sweeps Weekly game link if you don't get the email:

Thanks for mentioning it is 3 days only. I would have missed that!

I was trying to get to $35 (for free shipping + I have $7 off $35) but now I need to find a $10 item... I am running out of cheap items to buy haha Really missed $25+ free shipping

EDIT: also checked your SYW account. I just notice I have $10 off $25... all of these coupons lol!

Have a great Sunday everyone :beer:

There's a new Xtra game called "Win It Exclusive" that can only be played in the Xtra tab of the Win It smartphone app. It's the very last game at the bottom. It runs from today May 21 through Sat May 26. Only 1 play per day, no extra code/sharing plays.

There are 10,000 prizes of $0.05, 6,000 prizes of $0.10, 4,000 prizes of $0.25, 1,000 prizes of $1.00, and the 1 big prize of $50. I got nothing for today's play. :p

Guess you and me were not one of the "regulars" this week that averaged a $1 winning, according to there factoids we are getting now (I got skunked actually)

but I did win the $1 bonus which I havent in a while, and for the first time in a long time I played the regular Xtra games last night (usually only do >$1 hoursly spins). ended up wit ha little over a $1 in 15min of playing. figuring I'll need a few more points when I hit up Kmart today

That's $1 total including all the games they play for the day (small change and dollars)... though as best I can tell from the sometimes unclearly-phrased stats they've been sharing the last few days, most people don't come close to playing all the daily games like some of us try to. :)

I didn't have any luck in the 10 Win List spins in the first tab of the app (and for the past few days, the 11th spin I used to get from Twitter has been broken again in that section :( ), or the morning games, but I just won the 1-2pm CT $1 WW Xtra. :)

I have the same problem with the Twitter bonus spin... I tried uninstalling, downloading the latest version from the Android store and re-installing... but still doesn't work.

Yeah, when a similar problem happened for what I think was the first time a month or so ago, it started working again with no changes on my end a few days later. So I guess we just have to wait for the SYW administrators to decide to fix whatever's screwed up on their end again. Good to know for sure not to waste time updating the app. :)

Bit of a rare win this morning: Won 750 points on the one spin a day May is Fitness Month Xtra game.

Surprised nobody has asked yet: Does it snuff an angel if you Skip instead of Spin?

Nice win!

I always "skip", except when I occasionally miss that little link on my phone and accidentally hit the regular spin button instead. It shouldn't affect the results. :) Pretty sure someone asked that at some point before, but it's been a few months.

Code released today for a new-last-week Xtra game:
Sunshine Spins = SunnyDaY$

Still no code for the grill game, or for today's new game Daily Spinner.

I've always hit "skip", doesn't seem to effect odds of winning.

In fact, I hit "skip" once on Win It! about a year ago, and won an $800 Whirlpool Electric Range that was the prize selected for that win. So I'm thinking "skip" must not be effecting winning or not.

Wow, what a win! (Did you mean the first tab in the Win It app, Win List, where you pick the prizes?) I've only seen someone here post once before about winning one of the big prizes like that (though not nearly as valuable). I think it was a mechanic's creeper? Earlier this year.

That's odd. They took away my usual Sears $12 off $70 surprise points three days early, but my Sweeps Weekly $5 off $10 is still there.

Usually, they piss off members by taking away the nicer offer. :lol:

I've been reading them, but haven't seen that one yet. :) If it's new today, I haven't had time to play anything yet today except the bonus/WWs (and lost so far).

I believe I first saw the angel screen last Friday, when I was having system issues. It was running so slow it was almost impossible to avoid reading each screen.

I just saw the silly angel line as I lost the last bonus/WW of the day. :p

Edit: And a disappointing finish, only $0.70 total for the day. :(
