Spare Change for Lifes' Small Pleasures

What has happened to all the fun and small pleasures life has to offer? It seems that just living the normal day to day life has become a task,and "happy" is having the bills paid for the month. Having the money for going to dinner or a concert, or just getting together with friends seems to have become so difficult where you may almost want to give up! DON'T!

There IS a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow(or a cupful anyway)! Incentivized Freebie Websites may be for you. If you own a computer, are internet connected,and can follow simple directions, you posses the needed basics. Oh yeah, you'll also need the will to do it.


Nobody is giving anything worth having for absolutely nothing. You'll need to invest your time. Can you invest about 3 hours a day for 30 days? If you can, you'll easily earn a good $250-$1000 or more! Think of some of the small pleasures you can enjoy. Cash is #1 for me, but goods such as ipods, xbox(s), tv(s), computers and the like can be acquired for yourself, or as gifts, and all for FREE,or nominal cost.


Big name advertisers such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Doubleday, and others are actively seeking new customers. To do this, as sponsors they are listing what are called "offers" on various "freebie" websites. There is a requirement to fulfill in order to get your cash/gift. This is generally three-fold. 1.Pick your gift/cash.2.Completing the "offers requirement", 3. Obtain referrals.


The specific details of how many offers to complete, and the time it takes to be credited with completion can be found in the menubar of the website. The cost of the offers to you,the prospective customer can range from free to nominal, to whatever you choose on the list at its' special price also found on the listing page. In return there is a trial period to use their product, and decide whether or not to continue.YOU CAN ONLY DO OFFERS ONCE, even if from a different site! This is crucial, once you do an offer, you're not a new customer.


It's important that you only choose offers you are genuinely interested in and complete the attendant trial period. You will probably need to complete 2 or more offers to meet this requirement. Once this is done, the requirement "bar" on the website will turn green, this is also called "going green". CANCELING THE OFFERS BEFORE THE END OF THE TRIAL PERIOD, OR DOING OFFERS MORE THAN ONCE CAN RESULT IN YOU GOING "RED" AND YOUR ACCOUNT PLACED ON HOLD, screwing yourself, you get nothing, zip, nada, good day sir. I STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST THIS.


Once this is done, you will be assigned a referral link, whereby you can refer others to the site. This is how the final third of the requirement is met.


So where does the money come from? Aha! you thought I forgot didn't you?The money comes from the advertisers. Remember step 1,and the gift/cash you picked? They will send send cash via paypal. so you'll need a paypal acount which is very easy to set up. This money is paid weekly or monthly. Just go to paypal's link in the sidebar and follow the directions. You don't need a verified account for this.


BUT WAIT,THERE'S MORE! Not only will you get money from the advertisers, but also from regular folks like you and me who will pay you to complete offers through their referral link. They will pay anywhere from $20.00-$100.00 depending on the site and their particular needs.

READ THIS CAREFULLY, it's not much,if you follow these specific
instructions, you should have no problems.

First thing we have to do is prep your computer to do freebie sites.

Many people prefer to use FIREFOX when completing freebies, but many may argue there is no difference between it and INTERNET EXPLORER browsers. in both cases, the major factor is being able to manipulate private data ( cookies, history, cache, etc).



VERY IMPORTANT - The use of many anti-virus, pop-up blockers, and parental control programs interferes with the offer process... It will benefit you GREATLY to DEACTIVATE THEM!

If using Internet Explorer

It always helps to be using the most recent version of the program no matter what it is.

On the IE browser:

TOOLS TAB (on the right of the screen) > Internet Options (bottom of the list) > Privacy (tab on top) > Move settings meter all the way to the bottom so it says, " accept all cookies "

Make sure that the pop-up blocker is turned OFF

Close out of that window, then go to:

TOOLS > Delete Browsing History ( first option on list ) > click DELETE ALL... Button

On the Firefox browser:
Go to:

Tools > Clear Private Data ( also able to be accessed by holding CTRL+SHIFT+DEL

MAC USERS: FIREFOX.

Go to preferences.

Under the content tab, uncheck the block popups windows box.

In privacy, select clear cookies now.


You're ready to go to my REFERRAL LINKS(the dollar values in the sidebar).


These links are specially designed to make sure that the right person gets credit for your offer completion on a site (choose any combination of them, one, two,or all six). You will be assigned a referral link under me, like I was under someone else.

Click on the link, and sign up with the site.When you look in the address bar, you will see the code for the actual link.

This signs you up for the actual freebie site, before you get into any of the offer completion parts of the process,
make sure you use all accurate information so your ability to cash out, or have a prize mailed to you won't be affected.

Don't worry, you are able to change contact information later.

Your prize selection is not set in stone either.

You are able to change your prize at any time when logging into the site.

When you are done filling out information pertaining to signing up for the site, you are now prompted to complete "offers".



Completing OFFERS:


Offers come in many shapes and forms,and/or credit values.


Some offers are worth more, or less than others ( 1/2 credit, 1/4 credit, 1/3 credit, FULL credit, etc)

The main idea with the list of offers is to do whatever combination that's EQUAL to or are greater than ONE FULL CREDIT

IN GENERAL, offers that are worth less credit are usually easier to complete, and require less of a payment

Offers also come in different "Completion times".

In order for you to receive credit for what you do, your information for the offer is sent to the actual offer company, who then send the information back to the freebie site, telling them that you have successfully completed the requirements, free of fraud, and free of an accepted payment method. you will then "go green" for that offer.

It takes certain companies different times to send this information back to the freebie site so you get credit.

Try and complete offers that say they are INSTANT offers. (INSTANT can mean anything from immediate, to 24 Hours).

There are no right or wrong offers out there, however it's recommended you choose those of interest/use to you since you will be using them until the end of the trial period.

The offer that I completed when I first started was BLOCKBUSTER.



PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE:



After completing the offer, you will have a THANK YOU page pop up, normally with your account information, and receive a confirmation email in most cases. Leave this page open about 5 minutes. This this stage is very important!

Meanwhile, OPEN A NEW WINDOW, and go back to the actual freebie site to check on your status. It will tell you how many offers you've completed, and how many more offers/credits you now need. Before doing your next offer, CLEAR YOUR COOKIES AGAIN. Always clear your cookies before doing the next offer,this is also very important!

When you go back to the site, and click on the STATUS tab on the top of the page, you are able to see YOUR OFFER REQUIREMENTS section... This tells you whether or not your offer has gone through and you have "gone green" yet. Once the big RED box that says, "you have not met the requirements" changes to a big GREEN box saying "you have met the requirements", you are done.





EMAIL ME: brintz2@netscape.net AND YOU GET PAID!!



After your box turns GREEN, i will then send you your payment VIA paypal.

Please indicate what your paypal(email) address is, and I will send an instant payment to that immediately.





NOTE (THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE UGLY):


Always keep track of what offers you have completed.

NEVER EVER EVER complete the same offer twice, you may do different SITES in the profile. For example: sony.v-bux,dell.v-bux, cash.v-bux, are all different V-BUX sites, but you can't do a BLOCKBUSTER offer on more than one of them.

ONCE YOU do an offer once, on ANY freebie site, you are unable to do that offer again.

This is one big mistake made by noobies, and they get very upset when owners of sites catch them and they get put on "HOLD".

Hold is very nebulous term because you never get taken off of it.

Once you go on hold, that site is DONE.



Always read the"terms of service" with the offers and write down contact numbers, and Emails to cancel your trials when ready to do so.

If you are planning on canceling your trial, try and wait until a day or two before the trial ends to avoid suspicion of offer fraud.



GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, and MAKE SOME SPARE CHANGE FOR LIFES' SMALL PLEASURES!
