Lightspeed Panel Paid me!

Last Thursday I received the $10 Applebee's gift card I had requested from Light speed in the mail. It took me about 2 weeks to receive the card but only one day to use it. I love eating out for free! I already have almost enough points to cash out again, but I think I am going to let them build up this time.

Update on the Mora sites 4-18-08

Since my last post about Mora a few things have changed.

Mymusiccash and mymoviecash members have been paid by the new owner. See the comment on my last post about the changes going on with Mora.

Several people have been paid by the new owner of Morachat also, myself included. Since my last post he has aquired Moratraffic from it's new owner and it should be making it's debut shortly. He had to redesign the site as the person he purchased it from had purchased the domain name only for the purposes of parking it and making cash. It will be better than ever when it reopens.

Your 2 Cents surveys paid me!

I reached the $5 payout about 6 weeks ago. I actually cashed out at $6 and I received my check in the mail a few days ago. I have already requested another $6 cash out as well and I am expecting to receive it in the next few weeks. This survey site is easy to make cash out on. So far I have been at it for about 2 months and have made it to the cash out amount both months.

MoraChat paid me!

Well I made payout on Morachat over the weekend. I requested payout and was paid within a few hours. As promised, I was paid the $12 that I requested from Chris and $12 that was owed to me from the old owner. I am very impressed with the transition so far. It is getting easier and easier to make payout too as Chris and his wife, Rachael have added an extra work section that always has opportunities available for those that want it. Everything from coding to writing is available. So for anyone that was worried about whether or not they would get paid, have no fears.

May the Force be with you...

Freebie Force that is. Click here to find out how you too can get free gift cards to your favorite stores, free concert tickets, free hotel nights, and so much more.

I joined Freebie Force just 1 day ago and already I have made my membership fee (a small $9.95/mo) back in free gift cards alone. I received a $25 gift card for Ultra Diamonds to use either in store or online. Not to mention the coupons I got to stock up on Fuze fruit juice and Tyson pork loin for free. This site is the greatest.

Update on Mora sites

From the beginning I have highly promoted the Mora family of sites as highly trusted. Recently after a 2 week absence we were made aware that the owner and administrator of these sites was very ill and in the hospital. All of these sites are currently being sold as he can no longer continue keeping them up.

As far as I know so far, Moratraffic has been sold and is no longer a functioning GPT for the moment at least. Any monies owed to members from February and March has been lost.

Morasurfing, Morafreebies, and Morachat have been sold to one person. They are now and will continue to operate as normal. The new owner and administrator of these sites intends to pay out any owed amounts to members.

Mymoviecash and Mymusiccash have been sold and after some changes (the name being one) will be back to normal. The new owner of this site DOES NOT intend to pay any owed amounts to members.

This is the information I have for now and I will continue to update as I get more.

Trade Those Old CD's and DVD's

Recently I came across a site called Barter Bee, where you can trade your used DVD's, CD's, and video games with other users. When you list an item, you give it a point value. When you send it to someone, they give you that many points. You can then use your points to purchase other DVD's, CD's or games from the site. The best thing is, you can choose to keep the item or relist it and trade it away to someone else. This is a way better option than buying a CD your not sure about and then being stuck with it.


Another option for those used items? Half.com. Half allows you to sell your used books, DVD's, video games, and CD's for a price set by you. They reimburse you for the cost of shipping the item too.

Site updates for March

Well once again I have updated my list of sites on which I earn money.

Sites I have added:

Anythingfree4you - This site looks promising and if you only do PTC on it, there is no minimum cashout.

Hits4pay - I have already earned a bit on this and they give you $10 just for signing up.

Bux.to - I have heard good things about this site. I already made $0.21 in one day (less than 5 minutes work)

Buzzshed - This site has a $10 payout. They send you promotional videos to view and then you get paid at least $0.30 for each video.

Sites that have been cut/closed:

Ibux.ca - Imagine my surprise when I got a message from this site with an explanation of why the site was closed. Apparently (although I am not sure I believe this) they were on the verge of being sued because the Ibux name was in copyright by another company. I was only $1 away from being paid and now all my earnings have been forfeited.

Well this is the updated list for March. I will keep updating to let you guys know what is working.

I got paid!

Thursday was a great day for my mailbox. I received two checks. One was from Clixsense and one was from Send Earnings. I was so excited.

Earn money with Cha Cha search!

Recently I came across yet another online earning opportunity that I would like to share. It is called ChaCha.com and it is a great money making opportunity for people who would like to earn money working form home. You get to pick your hours and how much or how little you work.

The concept is that Cha Cha has real people helping others search for information. An Info Seeker sends a query, you decide if you want to take it, and if you do, you find the answer to their question. It takes only a few minutes and you are paid per search.

I am in the middle of the final testing phase of becoming a guide right now and I will definitely update this post when I finish and become a paid Guide with Cha Cha. Until then I think everyone should check it out and see if this opportunity is the one for you.

Getting Paid!

This should be a fairly lucrative week for me. I should be receiving several payments and I can't wait as some of them are first time payments.

Here is a list of the payments I will be receiving this week:

Clixsense $8.33 ( I upgraded in the last week of the month and it really helped me make payout.)
Send Earnings $27.01 (I have turned in $10 worth of advertising, but this will be my first check)
Moratraffic $5.72
Your 2 Cents $6.00 (This will be my first payment from them)
Moola $10.00
Quick Rewards $10.00

I can't wait to receive these payments. They are helping me get out of debt, slowly but surely.

I am finally caught up!

I finally got the totals on the side caught up just in time for the end of the month. I will (hopefully) not be running so far behind on the next update. It has been very busy at work and at home lately so I haven't had the time I would like to do my updates.

There are a few new sites this month and they are:

Hits4pay - I joined this site last week and so far it looks promising.
Myster-e-mail - I joined this site a few weeks ago and although I don't spend a lot of time there I am moving along slowly but surely. The admin is highly trusted.
Cha Cha - This is a site where I will get paid to do searches for other people. I have gone through the first round of qualifications and have to do my final test yet.

Prodege - This is another search and win site similar to Winzy, but better. With Winzy, you get points but you can't get anything for them but entries into the sweepstakes at the end of the month. At Prodege, you can turn your points in for cool stuff from your favorite musical acts. This includes branded Ipods, autographed merchandise, and music downloads.

Well that is the updated site list for this month.

Want FREE Magazine subscriptions?

Do you want free magazine subscriptions? Just join Start Sampling and sign up for all the great FREE subscriptions they have to offer.

These free magazines do not require a credit card either. Just in the last week, I have ordered my 2 free issues of Glamour and O. I have also signed up to receive 24 issues of Parents, Country Home, and Fitness. They have offers for Gaming magazines and Bridal Magazines too! So don't just sit there go get your free subscriptions!

The Clixsense upgrade is worth it.

I have been with Clixsense for quite some time and I have been making about $0.05 to $0.20 per day. I kept thinking about upgrading but I never did, until yesterday. It was only $10 and it lasts for an ENTIRE YEAR! That is pretty good as most want $30 or more and they only last for a month or two.

I couldn't believe the difference it made in the number of clicks I receive either. I was getting 5 to 20, right after my upgrade I had 500is waiting for me. Today I have probably done 100 and still have over 100 available. At this rate I will make back my $10 plus in a matter of days.

I highly recommend getting the upgrade. I think it will make a huge difference for me and instead of getting a check for $10 every couple of months I should be able to get a $50 EVERY month.

What I got in the Mail Part 3

Well it has been a busy week for my mailbox. I have received free samples, free merchandise, and coupons.

Once again, I have to say, if you are not yet a member of My Coke Rewards, you should be. I just redeemed some of my points for a very nice fleece vest with the Diet Coke logo on it. Just recently Pepsi launched its own points reward program in conjunction with Amazon - Pepsi Stuff. Both are great ways to earn free "stuff". I am working on getting a flash drive on there.

I got several free samples this week also. I received a free Go Lean snack bar from Kashi, plus several coupons for $1 off their TLC cookies (just for sending them an email telling them how much I liked them) and a coupon for any Kashi product free (I bought a box of Kashi Heart to Heart oatmeal valued at $3.79) for joining their online customer panel.

I also got a Huggies diaper sample, a recipe book from Ocean Spray, a sample of Cottonelle flushable wipes, a sample of Playtex Sport, and several different shampoo samples.

I also received my free (after shipping and handling) Senseo coffee maker this week. Like I said my mailbox ( and my mailman) were busy this week.

Samples were ordered through links on Walmart.com, Samsclub.com, morafreebies.com, volition.com, justfreestuff.com and several other sites.

Want a FREE Senseo coffee maker?

Well it's really easy. Simply go to share Senseo

Fill out the questionnaire and then wait about 2 to 3 weeks. You will receive an email telling you that you have been approved to receive the Senseo for just the shipping and handling charge of $15. You will receive the Senseo coffee maker, a package of the Senseo pods, a decorative canister to store the pods in and coupons for $20 off a Senseo coffee maker to pass on to your friends and family.

I just received mine yesterday and I was so happy with it. You can't beat this deal anywhere. The cheapest I have found the machine is $40 and that was on clearance. Not to mention that the package of pods cost almost $5 each.

GO and get yours today!

I've been busy!

Well, I have to get the totals updated on the right but I have been working a lot the last few weeks and haven't had a lot of time. I have just finished totaling the month of January. It looks like my merchandise total for the month was about $50, my gift card total was $4, and my cash earnings were $73.31.

In January I made cash out on quite a few of my sites bringing my cash paid total to almost $250!

Every month, as I work the kinks out, find new programs, and cut the ones that aren't working, I am making more and more money.

I am getting free products, samples, gift cards, and cash just for reading emails, testing products and viewing ads! What could be better than that.

As 2008 progresses, I hope that you continue to follow me on my money making journey.

Coupons can make you money too!

Okay, okay, so technically coupons do not make you money, but think of it this way, every cent you save with a coupon is a cent that stays in your pocket. Here is a great example:

I went to the grocery store yesterday and my total bill was $72 and some change. I had $19.93 in in-store savings (sales and in-store coupons) and $13.55 in clipped coupons. So I only ended up paying $38 and change for all of my groceries. It's almost like I got paid $34 to do my grocery shopping!

Over the last year, I have gotten really good at combining store sales with coupons. Yesterday, I got a bottle of Benefiber that usually retails for $7.85 for just $2.85 !( I combined the in-store $3 off with a clipped $2 off coupon) That's $5.00 that stayed in my pocket.

I highly recommend coupons as not only a way to save money but a way to make money. when you start thinking of coupons as cash, you will start to see the benefits of using them.

What I got in the Mail Today, Part 2

Well I just wanted to update everyone on all the wonderful free stuff I have gotten in the last week or so.

$29 in coupons for Febreze, Iams, and Mr. Clean products
Coupon for FREE 12 pk of Coke product
$1.00 coupon for Tylenol
$2.00 coupon for Kashi TLC products
First Aid Kit (from my local hospital)
Sippy Cup from Juicy Juice
Samples of Dove Darkening shampoo/conditioner
Samples/Coupons Sunsilk shampoo/conditioner
Samples Head and Shoulders shampoo/conditioner
Wildflower seeds from Burt's Bees

These are just some of the great things I have been getting in the mail. Keep an eye out for part 3..........

Why I am quitting Cash Delight

First of all, let me just say that I am not quitting because of anything they have done wrong. Cash Delight is actually a great site that pays quickly. My problem is that it is very time consuming and the time it takes is not equal to the rewards for me.

In about 1 1/2 months I have been paid twice. Once for $2.37 and once for $2.17. I would still recommend the site to anyone who is looking for an honest ptc, I just don't have the time to devote to it.

Be a product tester!

Well as I have said before, I am all for getting free stuff. Here is another interesting way to get it. Become a product tester. There are several sites that I have recently become a member of, that will send you products to test. Companies want to know how real life consumers feel about their products and so will send you them for free, to keep, forever!

Bzz Agent

Join the hive today! After you sign up (for FREE) you will have to fill out some profile surveys so they can match you with products that are relevant to your life. You will then be invited to campaigns and once you accept, the Bzz Kit will be mailed to you. The Bzz Kit can include coupons, samples, and products. I just got one for Pledge Multi Surface products that included coupons, samples, a Multi Surface Duster starter pack and a 25 count pack of Pledge Multi Surface wipes. Not bad when all I have to do in return is Bzz people about it (talk about it, give them samples or coupons). You see they want you to generate word of mouth advertising for them. Once you have Bzzed about the product to freinds, family, or coworkers, report back to the central hive with at least one detailed Bzz report telling them who you bzzed, where, and how. In return for your reports, you will receive points that you can turn in for merchandise.

She Speaks

She Speaks works in much the same way as Bzz Agent. You sign up (for FREE) and fill out some profile surveys. When they have a product test that will apply to you, you will receive an email. You will take an enrollment survey and then they will send you your free product to test. When you are done, simply provide She Speaks with feedback on how or if you liked the product. They will share with you how your feedback has influenced the product and then send you products, special offers, and coupons that you can pass on to your friends.


These are two of the sites I do product testing for. It is a fun and easy way to get free stuff for you and your home.

I am starting a coupon train...choo, choo!

I just read about this thing called a coupon train on another site but basically this is how it works:

There is a conductor or starting person who lets people "on" the train. Once the train is full, the conductor sends out the envelope full of coupons. The first person on the list then gets the envelope, takes the coupons that they want and puts in coupons that they have and don't want. The coupons should have an expiration date more than 5 days past the current date and the envelope should be sent out in at most 3 days. The first person then sends out the envelope to the next person on the list and they do the same thing. Every person on the list should take out any expired coupons.

I would like to start one and want to know if anyone is interested? If you are interested you may send me an email @ colleen-gilbert@hotmail.com with your name and address.

I think this will be a great way for everyone to get the coupons they want.

Neilson Homescan Consumer Panel

A few months ago I signed up for the Neilson (yes as in Neilson ratings for television) Homescan Consumer Panel. I have been on a waiting list in order to be added to this panel since then. I got a call this afternoon saying I had been selected.

Basically what happens is they send you a hand held scanner, much like what you see in the stores when associates are stocking shelves. Each week whenevr you buy something, you scan the barcode and once per week you upload all information to Neilson. Each week that you upload information to Neilson, you are awarded points which you can trade for merchandise from their catalog and you are also entered into contests and sweepstakes.

I should receive my scanner in 3 weeks and I honestly can't wait until I can start scanning. My purchases along with others will help shape what you see on the store shelves in the future. If you are interested in this opportunity all you have to do is click here

Ringing in 2008!

Well I hope everyone had a great holiday season. I am getting back into the swing of normal activities.

I started doing paid to click and get paid to sites in August of this year. I figured out what I have made and the totals are posted on the right. I have also zeroed out my balances to reflect my 2008 earnings. I plan on posting cumulative totals also when I get the opportunity, so everyone can get a full view of my online earnings from the very beginning.

Also to start off 2008 I have added and removed a few sites.

Sites I have added

Honeybeepoints
Honeybeeclicks
Mycashhoney
Shared Reviews

Sites I have removed

Onlinecashclicks
Yourbux
Simpleclicker

Simpleclicker was removed because the site closed. This was unfortunate as I ended up losing the $2.20 I had earned. Onlinecashclicks was removed for much the same reason. I have tried to log on for over a week and have had no new ads to click. I may give it a while more and see how it turns out. Yourbux was added and removed in the space of one month. Twice in the space of a week the site was down and the owners were selling the domain on Ebay!

I hope that this year will be a great earning year for all, so let's get started.
