Money for Points

 

What I'm about to describe here is the most fun I have on the internet right now.  I earn points through various methods at each of the sites below, and those points can be converted into cash.  You won't make enough to live on unless you can spend 24 hours a day racking up the maximum number of points at each of these sites, but who knows - you just might earn enough for that special gift you want for yourself but don't feel like you should spend money on.  So, why not give a few of these a try and see what you think?

FREERIDE

Freeride is my favorite site for making money.  To earn points, you click on ads.  Each ad tells you how many points you'll earn.  Once the points post (about 30 seconds), you move onto the next ad.  In my first 2 months (about 20 minutes per day), I've earned enough points to get myself a $10 gas card (good at most gas stations that accept MAC cards), and $45 in WebCertificates.  I could have spent my points on any number of other things, but I figure if I put most of them into WebCertificates, I can then spend them anytime at any store on the internet that accepts MasterCard.  Or, I can go to a store's website and purchase a gift certificate to use at that store's brick and mortar shop.  You are allowed 4 Freeride accounts per household, so get everyone to sign up and earn that much more.  I usually do my Freeride points in one browser while doing something else in another.   Please use my referrer id: akahn7 so I can get credit for referring you.

MYPOINTS

When I'm bored, I go to MyPoints and rack up some points.  I prefer Freeride, but MyPoints is one of the more popular points programs out there, so I figure I should give it a fair shake.  I haven't found it to be as much fun as Freeride which is why I haven't spent a lot of time there.  But, I will be using this site more in the near future.  One way to make points at Freeride and MyPoints is to register at all kinds of different sites.  Many of them are the same for each of these programs, so I've set up separate free email accounts for each program.  That way I can register at the same sites for each program using different email addresses.  Having the separate email accounts also makes it easier for me to keep track of what's going on.  Please use my referrer id: arlygirl so I can get credit for referring you.

BLINKREWARDS

This site is a little different than the previous two.  Here you get points for visiting other web sites.   They don't have as many places to spend your points, but they are still a young company and expect to be adding more soon.  It's very easy to earn points here, and this too can be done in a separate browser while you're working on other stuff.  Blink is also a site for keeping your bookmarks online.  By uploading your bookmarks to Blink, they will not only be safe from computer crashes, but will also be available for use from any computer you sign onto.  If asked, please use my referrer id: akahn so I can get credit for referring you.

This is just a small sampling of the programs that are out there.  These are the ones I've tried and liked so far.  As I find others that I like, I will add them to this page.
