Before you read further, this does take time and work and you do have to put out some money to complete the offers.
How did I get this? You know all those “offers” you see online that say, “Free Nintendo Wii” or “Get your free $500 gift card”? We all think they are scams, right? WRONG! That’s how I got these!! It is a lot of work and takes some time. When I first started each of these, I spent 3 hours doing them. I set up new email accounts for each company so I now have tons of emails to keep track of, and you of course have to keep up with canceling and making phone calls, etc for all of these. Personally, I think it’s all worth it, but I know it isn’t for everyone.
My first offer I wasn’t as good at as I should have been. I spent roughly $40-55’ish dollars. This was with an IDEAL site (I know, doesn’t make sense now but if you look into it, it will). Here is the breakdown of my expenses:
I started reading this blog and am a huge fan of it. That’s where I learned everything to do them.

If you go to online offers tab on her blog, you can read everything about how to do these. She really has so much information, and I read all of it before I tried these. I never could have done them without her help!! But, now I’m totally addicted. I said I wouldn’t do another one for a while, but I think I am itching to do one and am about to do another one!
