For instance, Swagbucks. Swagbucks is basically a search engine like Google or any other, with the exception that you actually get "paid" to use Swagbucks to perform your searches. I have been using it for a couple years now, and have gotten many Amazon gift card codes to use online. I bought a lot of my garden seed from Amazon with Swagbucks this year. It is free to sign up and use, and it does take time to get enough bucks for a "prize" but I do enough internet searches, it just makes sense to get something out of it! Today is Mega Swagbucks day, where you can get larger ammounts of points for searches, so give it a try! I've gotten 27 Swagbucks today! There is a sign up link on the right, as I have their widget here on the blog for convenience.
Another thing I like to do is collect and enter the My Coke Rewards points. Again, it is free, and easy to sign up, collect points, and redeem them for some nice prizes. I have gotten lots of free sodas, a lunch bag for my daughter for school, t-shirts, hats, Blockbuster movie nights, and many other things from MCR. You don't even have to purchase to play. If you know someone who drinks Coca Cola products and doesn't use their points, collect them and use them yourself! My neighbor saves the caps for me. The codes are printed on the inside of bottle caps, and the cardboard you pull off the fridge packs. All you have to do is sign up, enter the codes every week, and cash them in for prizes. Shipping is even free! I got my Sprite cap, and a t-shirt in the mail today from MCR! Last week I got free coupons for McDonald's new Hot N' Spicy chicken McNuggets for the kiddos...my young ones like spicy, and it's a nice treat for them.
It's not much, but every little bit counts. That is just a few of the things I do online to close the gap we have in income. Neither of those take much time per day, and the rewards are enough to make it worth the few minutes a day spent. Besides, everybody can use a free t-shirt once in a while : )
