I have had several ask me, "Is it really worth my time to enter into surveys, contest, games, etc? I think that depends on you and if it is worth it to you....I started doing this like I started doing couponing except this was a way for us to get the extra items we needed, wanted or just love to do.
Like I said before with couponing this is a choice you can dabble in it or make it your life style. For my family 2hrs of my time a week for doing this is worth the luxuries that we may other wise not have or do with out for a very long time.
Below is how my system works in doing these items......
The surveys on the receipts...I spend about 1/2hr at the end of the week.
- What I have won
- Gift Cards $5-$25 worth....been able to use them at Walgreens, Walmart, Sunmart, $General, etc.
- free reusable grocery bags filled with samples and coupons
- free sandwiches for the fast food joints
- Free tools, paint etc.
Instant Games..........I spend 10min a day, for the daily games
**I have a special url folder that says sweepstakes and I have it set to do auto fill
- What I have won
- coupons with high value or free items
- toys or stuff animals
- clothes
- gift cards
- Dog treats or toys
- Household items-knives, tea towels, etc.
- movie tickets
- movie rentals
- Food-slurpees, coffee, etc.
****I spend 10min every week and enter into the new ones, these are normally just one time
- What I have won
- Free stuff animals
- laundry soap
- Free food-wieners, bread, fruit, sausages, etc.
- books
- Curriculum
- Free itune credits, amazon gift cards
- I look for items that we need or like....
- Music, Books, Curriculums, gift cards, appliances, etc.
- I look for items that I know I or my family would use or do
- it doesn't pay to win a trip to Ireland if you don't like to travel.
