Every few weeks I update this with the new sites available and currently accepting new members.

If you’re sitting around this weekend, I recommend signing up for survey and product testing sites! Many of you make your Christmas spending money from these kind of sites. As usual, I encourage you to sign up and them all a try. Not all of them will work for you, but hopefully you can find one or two you can stick with! Out of these, my personal favorite is MyPoints, I just cashed out for $50!

Use the link above for a $5 sign-up bonus! Join Inbox Dollars free and get paid to take surverys, shop online, try name brand products and play games online. 

MyPoints
Earn points by checking email (easy!), taking surveys online, and completing other tasks.

Opinion Outpost (another favorite)
Opinion Outpost conducts surveys because businesses, governments, public bodies, and similar organizations are interested in the views and attitudes of the people who use their products and services. The more they know about what customers and citizens think, the easier it is for them to improve and adapt what they supply.

HomeScan NCP

The Nielsen National Consumer Panel is accepting applications again! Some of you are looking for ways to make some extra cash, so here’s an opportunity. Make sure you apply soon before spots fill up.

As a panel member, the Nielsen National Consumer Panel will provide you with a hand-held scanner and every time you or members of your household shop, you’ll use the scanner to scan the bar codes on all of your purchases. I can see my sister and boyfriend being enthralled with the idea of getting to scan everything. Then, you just send them your purchase information. By doing so, you’ll rack up points which can be cashed out for money, gift cards, electronics, etc. You may also be asked to try out and review items, like kitchen appliances for instance! Usually you’ll get to keep the item and you’ll earn money/gift cards.

You can head on over and apply to be a member. Even if your area isn’t accepting anymore participants, you may be eligible to do surveys for NCP which pay VERY well (some people get $30-$50 cash for one survey)!

NCP isn’t for everyone, but it doesn’t hurt giving it a try!

Hi guys! It is a cold, rainy day here and to make things worse, I don’t have internet on my laptop! If you know me well, you know my laptop is my security blanket! I take it everywhere. For the past two days, Mrs. laptop and Mr. Internet will not make a connection, so until Nerdboy fixes it, I’m using his Chromebook which is so tiny and hard to type on! Everything is taking me 10 times longer than usual today and I’ll have to add images later. Plus, I don’t have any of my blog files, pictures, saved passwords, etc. Very frustrating!

We have good news though! The Savvy Student Shopper is on Learn Vest today! You can head on over HERE to read the article that writer Alden has put together after interviewing me. You may have to make an account to access the article if it doesn’t pop right up. I won’t give away all the details, as you can read the article yourself. It’s very exciting getting my name out there to other women! But one thing you’ll always learn, along with new readers, new friends, and more questions, you’ll always get those nay-sayers who have something to say about using coupons or buying processed food! On SavvyStudentShopper.com, we KNOW how important it is to coupon and how living frugal becomes a great lifestyle and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Secrets of a Coupon Queen: How to Cut Your Grocery Bill in Half

I hope you will share the excitement with me! Feel free to share the article and Learn Vest site with your friends as well. Thanks for all the support. As always, I couldn’t do this without you guys!

I frequently post about Swagbucks and SuperPoints, because they are sites that I use on a regular basis to earn Amazon Gift Cards.

For the past few months, I’ve been getting comments from quite a few of you guys about Gift Hulk. I’ve finally had time to give it a try -so here goes!

Gift Hulk is very similar to other reward sites. In my opinion, Gift Hulk is a combination of both Swagbucks and SuperPoints, do you agree? Here are some of the MANY ways to earn with Gift Hulk:

  • Searching (like Swagbucks)
  • Treasure Box (You get a certain # of random tries every day to win, like Superpoints)
  • Special Offers
  • Games
  • TV
  • Daily Polls
  • Tasks
  • Codes
  • Surveys

You get 50 Hulk Coins by signing up through this link. You only need 439 Hulk Coins to cash out for a $5 Amazon Gift Card!

The thing I like the most about Gift Hulk is that there are so many ways to earn points, like Swagbucks and SuperPoints combined! Also, instead of always winning Hulk Coins, you also win prizes (like Amazon gift card codes) for doing the easy tasks and I think that adds some more fun to it all!

If you love Swagbucks and SuperPoints, I saw give Gift Hulk a try! You’ll be able to figure it out right away and start earning!

If you aren’t fans of the other rewards sites, I still recommend you give Gift Hulk a try. There are many ways to win and the incentives are good!

Fridays are GREAT days to sign up for these sites. I turn my points into spending money :)

I’m ALL about using sites to get FREE gift cards online, and the new one right now is called SuperPoints! I’ve been using it for a few weeks and I really like it! I’m a huge Swagbucks fan (definitely try them out if you aren’t already a member) but I’ve been using SuperPoints even more. That button is so easy and so addicting to click every day! My favorite part about SuperPoints is being able to cash out my points for Paypal $ for the same amount of points as an Amazon gift card (not the case on Swagbucks!).

Here are the easy ways I’m making my SuperPoints:

  1. Super Lucky Button (Sometimes you win a lot!)
  2. Make sure you get yourself to the higher levels for more chances to win points
  3. Emailed Points (Keep checking for emails with random points)
  4. Referrals (Get your friends to sign up!)

You MUST have a link from a friend to sign up. (We are friends, right?)

Super Points a new rewards program where you can earn gift cards or Paypal money for doing tasks on their site. By spending a few minutes every day clicking links in emails, clicking the “SuperPoints button” completing special offers, surveys, and more you can rack up enough points to cash out for these goodies. You only need 500 SuperPoints to cash out for a $5 gift card.

I have had a few of you ask me about how to make an income from working from home. Is it possible? I’ll be the first one to tell you that it sure IS! If I get my way (and I best get my way) I won’t have a job outside the home. Does that sound crazy to you? Well, everyone has a dream, right? I’ve been doing a lot and a lot of research on this topic.A lot. Maybe I might write a book. ZNZ is a rather new way for people of all ages to work from home and it is really,really catching on. If you’re interested in making at least $80 (average is $95) from every person you get to sign up for their site, please keep reading. ZNZ is a form of affiliate marketing, it is NOT for everyone, but if you want to give it a try, I’d suggest you start before everyone is already signed up.

So right now, you have already stopped reading the post or you’re thinking “this is yet another scam”, but let me continue, or give it a try before you knock it. ZNZ is a company that can be your career, as it is for many others, like Avon, Scentsy, etc. It’s the same idea: you make money for getting people to do something. Luckily for you, you do not have to sell ANYTHING with ZNZ. I don’t like people feeling obligated for buying anything from me, so asking someone to sign up and complete an offer is much simpler. You might have read some reviews about how sites like these are scams, but I can show you sites where they report that Swagbucks is a scam, and I KNOW my readers know our Swagbucks is no scam. Every site has haters, but don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. I’ve seen my fair share of sketchy sites and after months of using this company, I can assure you that it isn’t a scam. You have to understand how the site works before you can judge it. ZNZ is called affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing will become your “job” if you decide to join. It is very simple and also the fastest growing way to make money online (YAY! Why do you think blogging is so popular nowadays?). The company pays YOU to get others to sign up for things. That’s it. It’s marketing. Depending on the time (offers reset daily) you’ll be able to find totally FREE offers, but most are only a few dollars. You must complete an offer to sign up AND your referrals must complete an offer before you get paid. Offers are similar to the offers you see in Swagbucks (Netflix trial, FreeCreditReport, GoDaddy, etc.)
