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!

October 25, 2007 at 1:05 pm
same using opera
October 24, 2007 at 10:11 am
I didn’t think RSS reader can do that!
October 21, 2007 at 7:02 am
When I try and enter from google reader or email I get taken to a “sorry this contest is for subscribers only” page.
October 19, 2007 at 4:35 pm
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.
October 19, 2007 at 1:40 pm
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.
October 19, 2007 at 9:06 am
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?
October 19, 2007 at 4:11 am
oh it’s good I like it
October 19, 2007 at 12:22 am
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..)
October 18, 2007 at 9:43 pm
I think I got it and entered via gmail and google reader.
October 18, 2007 at 8:04 pm
It just takes a second (or two) to log into G reader, newsgator, & bloglines to submit.
October 18, 2007 at 5:20 pm
Same thing for me. Email delivery via Feedburner to my Gmail account.
October 18, 2007 at 5:08 pm
so are We above hung out to dry?
October 18, 2007 at 3:26 pm
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?
October 18, 2007 at 3:22 pm
This makes it easier. Thanks
It is becoming clear
October 18, 2007 at 2:42 pm
they would go in the other
we basically looked at the top 3 and then put the rest in other (subscribers to shoemoney)
October 18, 2007 at 2:42 pm
I just got the same error using FeedDemon
October 18, 2007 at 2:25 pm
Ahh yes, This makes it a lot easier to understand for sure, I was actually confused on the last post
October 18, 2007 at 2:07 pm
same. Just curious as to when winners are announced and such.
October 18, 2007 at 1:46 pm
I got the same thing, too.
October 18, 2007 at 1:08 pm
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.
October 18, 2007 at 1:06 pm
Nothing…just keep trying over and over in feeddemon…you might get in before the contest is over.
October 18, 2007 at 1:04 pm
Thanks for the clarification. I was actually somewhat confused.
October 18, 2007 at 1:03 pm
I always get one email in the afternoon/evening…not sure which but only once a day
October 18, 2007 at 1:03 pm
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? =/
October 18, 2007 at 12:30 pm
Is there a daily winners list anywhere? I was successfully able to enter 4/4 readers so everything works fine here.
October 18, 2007 at 12:03 pm
same error here using thunderbird…
October 18, 2007 at 10:39 am
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!
October 18, 2007 at 10:35 am
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.
October 18, 2007 at 10:33 am
Just so you know, if you use Google Personalized Homepage and click the link it shows up as ‘Other Reader’ instead of Google Reader.
October 18, 2007 at 10:29 am
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.
October 18, 2007 at 10:19 am
Ain’t in my desktop reader – KlipFolio
October 18, 2007 at 10:04 am
I use netvibes.. What about all the netvibers?
October 18, 2007 at 10:01 am
Clever shoemoney, beating john chow by having every valid rss subscriber sign up 4 times.
Muahahahhaha
October 18, 2007 at 9:57 am
It’s not in spam. Other are having similar mail problems too. Probably feedburner acting up.
October 18, 2007 at 9:55 am
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?
October 18, 2007 at 9:54 am
Thunderbird.
October 18, 2007 at 9:49 am
what rss readers are you using?
October 18, 2007 at 9:36 am
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.
October 18, 2007 at 9:33 am
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?
October 18, 2007 at 9:30 am
Well it wasnt really that hard..
October 18, 2007 at 9:28 am
i just clicked and it said i am not a subscriber. hmmm.
October 18, 2007 at 9:25 am
check your spam folder for feedburner.
October 18, 2007 at 9:20 am
C.R.E.A.M.
October 18, 2007 at 9:19 am
Okay so it wasn’t that hard…
October 18, 2007 at 9:07 am
Good stuff. I’ve submitted my entries!
October 18, 2007 at 8:55 am
Email’s are not being sent. Or at least on our end it doesn’t.
