How to Update Purchases & Find Out if You Need to Leave Feedback

If you have some down time. . ya right! ha ha ha!
 Down time! What's that!

I have something you could do! I just spent about a half hour going through my TPT purchases. I updated any that had new revisions, and I also left feedback for things I somehow forgot to leave feedback for. 

First you need to go to your page on TPT. That's when you click on your own name that is in bold print. There you will see this picture. 

When you click on My Purchases, you'll then see Paid Purchases and Free Downloads. 

I checked in my paid purchases and in my free downloads too. Both of those areas have ways to check for recent revisions, and feedback that needs to be provided. 

       
You might be thinking. . . why do I need to leave feedback? 

Well the first reason is that it's a kind and considerate thing to do. Your mama certainly taught you to use your manners, and this is a great chance to show your mama that you were listening! 
                    
The second reason is because you get credits for leaving feedback on paid items. Those credits add up to $$ off your next purchase.  Now you don't get credits for leaving feedback on free things, but it really does help the seller know how you feel about the product and it is just plain good manners. . . remember what your mama taught you!!


It's not that hard to do was it?  Now doesn't that feel better?
I hope that helps you find some extra credits so you can go shopping sometime! 

How to Update Your Purchases

 I love gifts! I bet you do too. But did you know that the sellers that you have already bought from may have given you a gift and you didn't even know it? 
 I was going through my purchases to see if anyone had updated some things that I already own. And I found 3 things that had updates! That's a gift! That's a welcome surprise! Would you like to know how to find out if you have some gifts? 

Here's how:

Go to your Teachers Pay Teachers page. 

Below, you can see my page. See where the pink arrow is. . . 

that's where you can see many things but the important one right now is

My Purchases.  

Click on those words. 

When that opens up, you'll see this page below. The left side shows your paid purchases. The right side shows your Free Downloads. 

Open the tab that says Recently Purchased. Scroll down a bit to the words Recently Revised. Then click. This will open up any purchases that you have that have been improved. 

When you see the words in RED that say Newly Revised Re-Download, you know that you have a gift! That seller has updated their work and they want you to have the latest information. I marked these with the blue, pink, and green arrows. 

If you want to see just what they did to revise this, click on the words Description of Revision.  A little window will pop up to show you the changes. 

Next you can click on the Download Now tab, and it will give you the latest version of their work installed on your computer. 

It's time for you to check your purchases and also your FREE DOWNLOADS too. See if you have any gifts! I'd love to hear from anyone who found something that was updated!
