Must not be working correctly. I can enter the Sweepstakes but I don’t see the Instant Win Game?

I didn’t see any instant win game either.

The rules say that if you are a winner you will receive an e-mail confirmation within an hour after game play.
Diane says
I didn’t see any way to enter! it’s in a loop, no matter what I click on, check in from an ihop, or no ihop, it takes me right back to let’s get started. No entry for me.
Abby says
This is what’s happening to me too.
karen w says

Chelsea r says

Sherie says
Worked just fine for me, I entered by sharing a story.
sunnyhill says
tried for 2 days now and its still not working for me.
Jennifer says
I shared a story yesterday (not on site check in) and shared a story just now, (again not on site). And just got an email 2 mins after entering that I won a digital GC. Woohoo, I can’t wait to go to IHOP now.
michele t says
I’m in a loop as well. No entry.
brenda says
I entered by sharing a story, I think this is day 2 for me, but I received a congratulation email with a $5.00 digital Ihop gift card. I was surprised to see it in my email. I think it came about 10 minutes after I shared a story.
Michelle Washburn says
I cant enter either
brenda says
Is everyone trying to enter by checking in or entering by sharing a story? I am puzzled, Maybe if you try a different browser, I am not sure really, when all else fails, I try a different computer or browser..I hope everyone can enter..
Maria S. says
I tried all 3 browsers and even cleaned out my cache and cookies. Still looping.
Ellen B says
I got a winning email
Karen w says
Still no luck, cleared all cache, allowed cookies, disabled FB blocking, still loop-click tell story, click get started, click story, …….no form for story input 🙁
garianne draves says
I know that the rules say one prize per person but I have actually gotten 2 $5 ihop gift cards. just an fyi.
brenda says
I did as well..
Alisa says
I always get stuck in a loop too. I have tried on two different computers, both using Chrome and I have tried for about 3 or 4 days.
Claire McTiernan says
$5.00 winning email. It ended up in my spam folder, so be aware (just in case :))
sarah says
won a $5.00 gc before I realized there isn’t an ihop where I recently moved so sent it to my dad!
Kasey says
I won a $5 gift card.
Christina Oddy says
I just won $5.00 too!
Blaire Ruch says
i just won the $5 gift card! it also went to my junk folder, as someone else previously noted.
Blaire Ruch says
i just won another $5 gift card, so it is true that you can win more than once.
Blaire Ruch says
just won my 3rd $5 gift card!!!!
Idaho Jill says
me too! wonder if we can use them all at once or if I should start forwarding it to friends!
Blaire Ruch says
I think you can, because they are digital gift cards, which should be considered just like physical gift cards. Nothing on the fine print says anything that would indicate not being able to use multiples.
