A few people were confused where they click on the link in there feedreaders so I thought I would make it a little more clear 
Remeber there will be 1 drawing per day per RSS Reader method. So you will want to make sure you enter every day (most people wont have the stamina so hang tight).
Then at the end there will be a grand prize drawing for over $1500.00 in cash and prizes in which ALL entries from ALL categories will be chosen from. So if you get multiple entries every day you will have a much better chance to win the daily prizes AND the grand prize!

DIdnt knew i had to submit my name and email too unless i read this post of yours.
same using opera
I didn’t think RSS reader can do that!
When I try and enter from google reader or email I get taken to a “sorry this contest is for subscribers only” page.
I am getting the error “Sorry, this contest is for subscribers”
After clicking on the emails from feedburner via gmail.
They’re both pulling out plenty of tricks. Chow was the first to offer incentives to feed readers, now Shoe stepped it up a level. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Chow do the same down the road here.
Are you supposed to be able to signup from the posts to email option? That returns the “must subscribe” message. I’ve already got a subscription through my feed reader, so not a huge deal, but I figured the email subscription would count in the “other readers” category.
My Google reader locks up every time I try to open a Shoemoney feed. My other feeds open with no problems
Fri morning 10/19
there is anyway to participate using the rss reader of firefox?
oh it’s good I like it
Dont bother people !
John Chow is gonna lite this baby up. Shoe will be standing in the corner like a spoilt little marketer, glancing back at Chow from the shadows.
This is so funny.. its like, shite.. I can’t do this purely on the strength of my audience.. I’d better see if I can encourage them to clone themselves.. (damn that sounds good..)
I think I got it and entered via gmail and google reader.
It just takes a second (or two) to log into G reader, newsgator, & bloglines to submit.
Same thing for me. Email delivery via Feedburner to my Gmail account.
so are We above hung out to dry?
Thanks for clarifying that. I entered with Google Reader, Safari, and Bloglines today. I just realized that I entered a different email address with my name than I used when I subscribed. Am I still eligible?
This makes it easier. Thanks
It is becoming clear
they would go in the other
we basically looked at the top 3 and then put the rest in other (subscribers to shoemoney)
I just got the same error using FeedDemon
Ahh yes, This makes it a lot easier to understand for sure, I was actually confused on the last post
same. Just curious as to when winners are announced and such.
I got the same thing, too.
lol, well thanks for the sarcasm but thats my usual client and even if shoe wants to win against John i dont really want to use another one.
Nothing…just keep trying over and over in feeddemon…you might get in before the contest is over.
Thanks for the clarification. I was actually somewhat confused.
I always get one email in the afternoon/evening…not sure which but only once a day
Shoe i use FeedDemon and when i click on the link i get a fancy “Sorry, this contest is for subscribers only.”
What should i do? =/
Is there a daily winners list anywhere? I was successfully able to enter 4/4 readers so everything works fine here.
same error here using thunderbird…
get same error”for subscibers only” in feedreader – nothing in email at all today had been getting it fine before……..fix it shoe I want my 4th entry today!!!! (not to mention it will be fun to watch shoe beat chow!
nevermind I guess I am waiting for a RSS feed in my readers for the link. I will just wait for it, sorry about the confusion.
Just so you know, if you use Google Personalized Homepage and click the link it shows up as ‘Other Reader’ instead of Google Reader.
Shoe, its working great for me from google, newsgator, and bloglines. It does not however work from my main RSS source, netnewswire on my MAC, says I must be a subscriber to enter.
Ain’t in my desktop reader – KlipFolio
I use netvibes.. What about all the netvibers?
Clever shoemoney, beating john chow by having every valid rss subscriber sign up 4 times.
Muahahahhaha
It’s not in spam. Other are having similar mail problems too. Probably feedburner acting up.
I haven’t received the email and I signed up yesterday and your feedburner says I’m subscribed. I use gmail and it’s not in my spam folder?
Thunderbird.
what rss readers are you using?
it took a day or so for me to get mine set up… then you only get the feed once a day. but it might be in spam.
a bit more specific:
http://www.shoemoney.com/contest/index.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.shoemoney.com%2F2007%2F10%2F18%2Fwordpress-gets-some-cool-avatars%2F
that url is what i get when i click on the “link” to enter for the days contest.
then i get this on your page:
Sorry, this contest is for subscribers only.
i am subscribed via email and RSS. what da dealy yo?
Well it wasnt really that hard..
i just clicked and it said i am not a subscriber. hmmm.
check your spam folder for feedburner.
C.R.E.A.M.
Okay so it wasn’t that hard…
Good stuff. I’ve submitted my entries!
Email’s are not being sent. Or at least on our end it doesn’t.
