Contest entries are typically approved weekly, but if we have several similar entries, multiple entries by the same author, or holiday specific entries, we may choose to spread the entries out so we have a wider variety of content in the ThriftyFun newsletters and homepage. This can also increase the entry's chances of winning the contest.
When your entry is posted, ThriftyFun will send an email alert to the email address entered in your account settings. Check over the entry to make sure it looks correct. If there are any errors, we can usually fix them as soon as we hear from you.
