As others have indicated, the "Skip" option is under the control of the advertiser, FC cannot do anything to add it in.

One thing I do is still click on the FB link.  Sometimes that's enough to get credit, even if you don't log in or like anything.  If they do require the like, just say "oh, well" and move on to the next task.

Either that, or create a "dummy" facebook account.  Create it with minimal information possible, then turn on all the privacy buttons that exist.  Then it will solely be used for such tasks.  Much like those people who create twitter accounts solely for the bonus.  No one will find you on FB, and you if you don't post anything other than these task "likes", then there's nothing for FB to really gather.  It's an option if you want to go there.

Or a least warn beforehand that you need to like a movie on facebook to get credit.
So I can decide to not watch the movie

It usually says "Like XXX (optional)" on one of the top tabs so if it doesn't say that you can assume you have to like it for credit.

Thanks for the tip

when asked to share to your page on FB you can select for it to post to your timeline and only be seen by you and then you can delete it later from the FB side. Also if you have to click the LIKE button you can also go back and unlike later from the FB side so as to not clutter up your FB feed etc.

Without reading this thread,(and I'm sure someone must have mentioned this)but,I'm sure it's not up to FC to include the "skip step".The advertiser must decide that.

Sorry to say this,Shantel,but those posts are not likely to be eligible for the $3 bonus.

I have a Facebook but never like things since I hate that stuff on it. I really appreciate it when they clue you in before the video that it needs to be like.
