GIRL TALK TIME: Which section is your favorite? What do you like reading the most? Which articles always get you commenting? What section would you like to see next? Any articles ideas you’d like us to cover?

Did you know you can get points on Sheckys.com for FREE and fabulous goodies like our Mini Goodie Bag (the short ‘n’ sweet version of Shecky’s Famous Goodie Bags!) just by inviting your friends to join the site?

We’ve created a site guide to show YOU, our fabulous users, how to best use our new site. Check back every Tuesday on Shecky’s Buzz to get the scoop on a new topic. In this edition, we’re giving you the FYI on inviting people and earning OMG Points for fab freebies while you do it.

First, you must be registered as a member of Sheckys.com. Go to Sheckys.com/Register and join our girlfriend community—it takes 60 seconds and you’ll get 250 OMG Points just for completing your registration.

Already a member? We know you’re popular, so invite more friends to join your Sheckys.com crew. The best part is, you’ll get 100 OMG Points for every friend who accepts and joins. This is one of those times when the more the merrier is true—simply go to Sheckys.com/Invite and enter the email addresses of all your girlfriends (and your mom, brother’s girlfriend, catty coworker…). The more friends who accept and join, the more OMG Points you’ll score (do the math!).

PLUS, invite contacts from your email address books, share your own personal invite link, and post your invites to Facebook and Twitter. Yes, you’ll even get credit for your most random Facebook “friends” so long as they join off of your link.

Once you’ve invited all of your friends and they’ve accepted (see, we told you you were popular!), watch your OMG Points climb in the left hand corner of your screen. Check out our Goodie Bags page to see what those OMG Points will score you.

GIRL TALK TIME: Still have questions? Tell us now, our friendly community moderators are on staff Monday through Friday 10am-5pm answering your questions. What confuses you about the new Sheckys.com? We might pick your question for next week’s edition (and attribute your username, smarty pants!).

Where is the Runway?

The Runway is located under the EXPERIENCE, DISCOVER and GET REWARDED sections of our Sheckys.com homepage. Simply scroll down and you’ll see the Runway to the left of our Featured Showcases.

What is the Runway?

The Runway is an instantly updated newsfeed that shows what you and your friends are up to on Sheckys.com.

What will I see on the Runway?

Looking for a new article to check out? You can see what your friends are saying about our posts. You’ll also view what events your buds are attending, just in case you wanna come with. Check your pretty self out ASAP since new photo galleries appear on the Runway, too. Who is friending whom is also broadcasted, just in case you feel like adding a few more ladies to your Shecky’s crew (our motto is the more, the merrier!). You will also see when a friend writes on someone else’s wall.

Your own comments, events, wall posts, etc. will also appear on your Runway as well as the Runways of girls you are friends with on Sheckys.com.

How can I be the star of the Runway?

See that “What’s on your mind” and blank box on the Runway? Place some text in there and tell us how you’re feeling today, jot down a question, let us know about any exciting news, brag about the goodie you just scored…whatever you like, and then hit SEND for all of your friends to see. You can also go to My Account>Profile>WALL and write from there.

Other ways to increase your Runway popularity? Comment away on articles—you’ll get points for doing it and we’re sure your friends will love seeing your opinion. Write on your friends’ walls, everyone loves an unexpected comment or kind greeting! And join us at as many events as you can—you’ll show up on every friend’s Runway, you’ll score even more OMG Points for purchasing tickets, and we obviously want to see more of you. Try the Runway out right now and take a peek at what your pals are up to.

GIRL TALK TIME: What’s the top thing on your Runway? Who’s the most popular Sheckys.com friend you have? Is there anything you’d like to add to the Runway?

What are you waiting for? Here’s how to get started and earn as many OMG Points as possible:

Sign Up

Earning 250 points is as simple as signing up. Register now (it takes less than 60 seconds!) if you’re not already a member.

Complete Your Profile

Since we want to know all about you (hello, you’re our best girlfriends!), we’re giving you another 500 OMG Points just for completing your profile. Simply go to My Account > Profile > Edit Profile, then complete each section. The questions are fun and you get to upload your own fierce photo.

Comment on Articles

Got a thing or two to say? We want to hear your opinions, stories, advice, whether you love or hate an article. We’re hooking you up with 2 points* for every article you comment on.**

*you can only earn the 2 points 5 times a day—lucky for you we write a lot of articles!

**Sheckys.com reserves the right to delete all inappropriate comments.

Invite Friends

I’m going to Girls Night Out! How can I get my picture in the Gallery? Bring your beautiful self to the red carpet section (it’s FREE!) at the event, strike a pose and we’ll take your picture. Give us 48 business hours and ta-da, your 15 minutes of fame are captured forever on Sheckys.com.

OMG! There are so many pics! How do I find myself? We don’t tag or associate pictures with our Girls Night Out attendees, so have fun scrolling through and taking a look at everyone’s shots till you find your own.

I have my own photos. Where can I post them? Feel free to share and tag your own photos on Facebook.com/GirlsNightOut, we always love getting in on a good time.
