Im sure you've all seen these promos... the ones were you can enter once every day. I understand they want you to go to the site and look at the promo (brand fixation, etc.), but... why do they want you to enter the same information every single day...?

I wonder if every day they create a new separate mailing list that they then turn around and sell to different SPAMMERS...

Each day I have done the Kelloggs promo I have only had to enter my e-mail address, not all of the other info, which is better than a lot of other contests that I have entered.

when I used to do lots of sweeps and other promo entries every day, there was some cool programs that you could download and would make quick work of entering these. That's been a couple of years so I don't know if they're still out there. I don't qualify for this one

Do you have any special settings on your internet browser... Im guessing your browser is repeating frequently entered information..?

No, if jsm's experience is the same as mine, then the only thing entered each day after the first is the e-mail address - no already filled-in blanks or anything.

Perhaps it's a cookie-related issue, I don't know.
