Get Paid to Coupon

Everyone is on the couponing craze but did you know you can take it one step further and get cash back to coupon? There are sites that will pay you per coupon you redeem or on top of any coupons you use in the store. Inbox Dollars  and Send Earnings both pay you $0.10 per coupon you redeem and Swag bucks gives you 10 points per coupon.  Saving Star   is a company that pays you via paypal or amazon for coupons you load onto your card but doesn't affect anything in the store. For example, Price was $0.99 for some wacky mac in the store, Used a $0.50 coupon I had from the paper taking the price down to $0.49, and Saving Star  also paid me $0.40 to my account, so the net price of the Wacky Mac was $0.09 after all is said and done.

 

Here are the links:

Inbox Dollars  - $5 to join and $0.10 a coupon

Send Earnings -     $5 to join and $0.10 a coupon

Quick Rewards $0.10 a coupon, cash out at $3.00

Swag Bucks   - 30 points to join and 10 points per coupon

Saving Star   Value varies between items, credit within 30 days, paypal & amazon

 

Most of these sites also have surveys, but be careful, they are often very LOW paying and I don't do them unless they meet my minimum requirement.

Step by STEP

There are step by step directions listed below. If you follow them, the money will follow. I make no promises about how much you will make, as everyone is different, but you can earn a decent sized amount doing nothing more than answering questions and testing product. One warning, NEVER prepay for something. There is no reason to pay $29.95, $79.95 or more for the survey sites. NO legitimate survey company charges a fee to give you access. Also, no company will charge you to test their product. I have tried out kitty litter, baggies, hair products, tanning products and much more.

Step 1: Sign up for a free gmail account. I know you probably have a yahoo/hotmail/etc, but I prefer gmail for the filters. You'll see why that is important later

Step 2:  Send me your new email address and ask me to put you on the list. (Kellie ms.chic @  yahoo.com) This will put you on the first notice list, where we can add you to the newest survey sites and keep you in the loop.

Step 3: Sign up for Roboform. This software is free, IF after you've started using it you like it, i encourage you to purchase it. It can save all your passwords, links, and information in one place. This is key if you are filling out multiple surveys per day. Once you've installed this program, go and enter your information into the identity fields. I do NOT enter my business information, nor my banking/payment info. This prevents some fraud and also from my boss busting me for having too many emails coming in.
Get Roboform HERE

Step 4: If you have not already done so, sign up for a Paypal Account. Most sites will pay via check but some offer Paypal. Also sign up for an Amazon account. A lot of companies are now offering the option to pay via Amazon Gift Cards, which can then be used on a variety of sites in addition to Amazon.com. Some other sites will simply mail you a check once you reach the payout amount or request payment.

Step 5: Begin signing up for the sites listed below and the sites under review page. You should use your new gmail email address and the information you auto-saved in your Roboform.

Step 6: Go into your gmail account and set up some filters/labels. For help in doing so, go here. This will help you see which companies are sending you the most surveys and which may not have your correct info. Do check your spam folder often, sometimes surveys are sent there by mistake. Learn how HERE

Step 7: Create an excel spreadsheet of all the survey sites you use and your log ins. Also create a spreadsheet for every dime you receive. I keep three tabs on the bottom, one for paypal, one for checks, one for amazon and i keep the updated daily!

Another beautiful weekend!

two great things happened this weekend! one i got my check from USA Talk Now for my 2 day technology blog and two i got $25.00 for two hours of my time from Choozz (same parent company as SurveySpot)  Both Choozz and SurveySpot payout via instant paypal which is just about the best thing in the world to me. No need to hit the bank or wait for a check, just instant cash! USA Talk Now doesn't give you a ton of surveys but the vast majority of them pay really REALLY well. i think i spent maybe 3 hours TOTAL for my $125 and it was a super easy board too!

Cash Back Shopping!

By now, you've seen the commercials from Ebates saying how much people get paid to shop. Well its true. I have made over $620 from ebates, another $103 from Big Crumbs and just signed up for Shop At Home and hope to be earning with them soon.

 

How It Works is simple, before shopping online, you check into the home page of Ebates (or any of the others) you then find your store and click the link they provide. This is KEY! Ebates even has travel sites, so every time I book a room, I get cash back. Every time I order office supplies for work, I get cash back. Every time I shop on ebay, I get cash back (on hold at the moment) when you reach a certain pay out amount, they send you a check or transfer it to your paypal.

These sites also offer discount coupons. My advice is any time you shop online, double check with these sites first! You'd be surprised at how many sites offer up cash back. These sites will also pay you for referring your friends, usually about $5.00 each friend you refer. So you share the savings and earn even more.

 

Here are the links:

 

Shop at Home  - pays out via check once you've reached $20  - just joined, haven't earned yet, will update soon.

 

Ebates  - pays out once per quarter if your balance is over $5.00, have earned $637.72 since 2008 when I joined.

 

Big Crumbs  - pays out on the 15th of the month but is 30 days delayed.  Have earned $103.18 since 2010..

Get Paid to Sites

Get paid to sites are a bit different from your average survey site but do pay well. I am a member of quite a few and will start with Inbox Dollars and its sister Send Earnings. Basically you get paid to ready emails they send you daily ($0.03 each email) get paid to print coupons ($0.10 per coupon redeemed) take surveys (varies) and much more. I have been a member for well over 5 years now and LOVE the simplicity of these sites. Plus they start u with $5.00 in your account just for signing up. Most people think just couponing is the way to save money but how about being paid to coupon, thats real money there.













i'll post more soon!

Random Gift card!! love it

[caption id="attachment_24" align="alignnone" width="300" caption="LOVE gift cards!! "][/caption] Got this gift card in the mail today at work! $25 gift card for 15 minute survey, always a good thing! what to buy what to buy!!

Just found out... there's no bzzkit..



just found out there is no buzz kit, so i'm supposed to pay full price for an item and then review it.. ummm.. no.. i only review items that i've received a discount for. i know that seems boushey, but i have completed plenty of bzz and i hate when they do this. u get all excited to join a campaign and then NOTHING. you are expected to do all this legwork and you dont honestly get much in return. sadly, this often happens when a company gets too big and has too many members, thought i've been a member since 2008, i'm not receiving the same quality bzz kits I used to and I think i do pretty well with my parties and my buzz..

Survey Spot, not so friendly today

i'm gearing up my paypal and trying to earn as much as I can before year end, Survey Spot, among the quickest ones to pay out (instantly actually) and its LAGGING today!! hate it.. hopefully you can have better luck, www.surveyspot.com ..

Quick Note

I rarely do free surveys. Every survey invitation you receive should clearly list what you will be paid for completing the survey. I don't do surveys that pay less than $6/hr, unless I have a lot of time on my hands. That's a MINIMUM of $3.00/30 mins and $1.50 for 15 mins. I try to keep my minute rate around $0.10, a lot of people do more but thats my bare minimum, since I'm at work anyways most times I'm taking the surveys. I don't do surveys for sweepstakes entries and don't recommend that you do them either!

BzzKit Nature's Own

Hello. Have I told you about BzzAgent yet? I'm a member, and I thought you might like to be one too (joining is free). I get to try products and services at no cost with samples, coupons and stuff like that. Then I make my voice heard by sharing my honest opinions with others, including some of the largest companies in the world. Want to learn more and sign up to join in the fun?

Currently, I'm testing Nature's Own and loving it. I haven't received my test kit but doing the campaign reminded me of all the good products they offer. Combining my coupons and the sale at Ralphs last week, I was able to snag a few buns for the bbq we had over labor day. Such Goodness!

Doing 3 Bzz Kits right now!

I'm loving Bzzagent lately, not so sure about their new daily bzz but oh well. My fav bzz campaign right now is the trend micro, with all the time I spend online i NEED a great antivirus program and Micro is it!
