Apps and Web for Earning Cash and Gift Cards that Work

WEB:

 SwagBucks - If you are not using this site you should be. It is easy and fast.  Cash out for various Gift Cards or PayPal at a certain earning level. Search as you would any other search engine and you have a chance to stockpile SwagBucks.  You can shop online, do surveys, watch videos, print and redeem store coupons...all actions you might do anyway in the course of a day. The site also randomly announces SwagCodes which you enter in the SwagBox and earn too. I love this and have used this site for a few years on the web They have mobile apps too! I average $10.00 a month in earnings although you can earn more by doing more.      


MyPoints - Similar to SB above except you earn 5 points for each e-mail you open from MyPoints BonusMail, you can shop through the site, you can do the daily poll, answer surveys, print and redeem coupons for points.  Redeem for gift cards, save more earn more! 


shopswell - This is a fun little site if you love to shop or at least find out what other people are shopping for. Make lists, recommend items, answer questions.  We are a community helping each other out and answering questions on shopping and products.  This brings in a small amount of Amazon funding for me which is a boost to my holidays!     


QMee - This is a Chrome Browser Extension - Search and shop online as usual with Google, Amazon, Yahoo, or Bing.  Just sit back, relax, search and shop online, and get cash rewards, money saving coupons and automatic price comparison deals straight to you. Click the links that come up on the screen and earn.  You can cash out to PayPal at any amount!

UserTesting - I love this site!! It is a site where you can test and comment on websites. You download a small piece of software on your computer and qualify for these 'tests' and you follow a specific set of tasks that usually take no more than 10 - 15 minutes and click around in the websites that the 'test' has brought you to. You do have to have a microphone on your computer because the tests entail screen recording and talking out loud while performing the tasks. This is a site that pays in PayPal exactly 7 days from completion of each test. They also have a mobile version so you can perform certain tests on your phone or tablet.

SURVEY SITES: 
There are a whole slew of survey sites too if you have time to take surveys. Way too many to write about. My husband and I have tried all of these at different times and decided that for us these have really worked and paid out in terms of cash or gift cards.

MintVine - Earn points for GiftCards or a Paypal option by doing surveys. They are very good at paying quickly.


MyView - Earn Points for Gift Cards by doing surveys. Cash out at 14,000 points for some and 35,000 for others. I have been doing this a short time and love it. You can earn points on most surveys even if you do not see the entire survey. GiftCards are received within 21 days.


Opinion Outpost - This is also a good survey site to get Amazon or Paypal. Cash out for 50 points for $5.00 Amazon and 100 points for $10.00 PayPal. 


PaidViewpoint - I love quick paid surveys. Cash out at $15.00 in Paypal. 


SurveySavvy - A survey site and also a small application you can download to your PC or phone and the longer you keep it installed you will make small amounts every month the product is installed 



YouGov - Click Here: YouGov


Valued Opinions - Survey Site with valuable surveys and cashout at $20.00. Gift Card choices are Macy's, Amazon, FragranceNet, Magazines.com, Visa, iTunes, Restaurant.com, Chili’s® 4-Choice Gift Card, CVS, SouthWest Rapid Rewards, Spa and Wellness, Target 


APPS:

 Grocery Shopping 

 Ibotta - Really cool App - You unlock the rebates you want to use, buy the items, scan the bar code and take a picture of the receipt.  
SavingStar - Love this! Link your grocery cards (Automatic Saving) or upload receipt (Receipt-scan stores).  Offers appear on home page just plus them to add to your list and then just shop.  Automatic Saving stores you just use your linked card at checkout for the items in your list and you will see the money back in a few days.  For Receipt-Scan stores if you purchase any of the items you have in the list you just use the app to upload the receipt.  Simple and it returns the monies to me via PayPal.

 Shopkick - Rewards come to you in the form of kicks.  You earn these by walking into stores, scanning certain items in that store, kicks for Credit Card purchases ( link your Visa or Mastercard), certain kicks for receipts (Kickbates) and kicks for inviting friends.  
WalMart Savings Catcher - Download on the phone, upload your WalMart receipt and they search top competitors in the area and if they find a lower price they give it back to you in WalMart Gift Cards

 ReceiptHog - Yes this app is slow going in order to earn your reward, but in the end I think it is worth it to have that extra pocket change.  With this app you upload your shopping receipts and it analyzes them and gives you coins which you bank until you have enough for a reward.  1,000 coins = $5.00, 1,800 coins = $10, 3,200 coins = $20 and 4,500 coins = $30 This app will pay out in Amazon or PayPal

 ReceiptPal - Similar concept as the app above.  Upload your shopping receipts, complete 1 card (4 receipts), earn 100 points.  You can redeem for Amazon Gift Cards as low as 400 points = $1.00  You can save them up and get other gift cards at higher values

Rapid Release Pain Relief That Works

I love sampling products that I know come from trusted brands and from a site that comes through with lots of awesomeness.  I am talking about Crowdtap with whom I have been a loyal user of for a few years now. This newest sampling is a brand you may be familiar with as I have written about it before a few years ago.  I am talking about Advil.  This product is a Rapid Release formula and makes it their fastest acting Advil to date.  I received my samples recently and funnily enough immediately following a short stay in hospital for a pain related malady. Coincidence? Maybe fate was looking down? Either way it was pretty incidental. The samples were such a relief because I choose not to take prescription painkillers unless absolutely supremely necessary. The way I was feeling at that moment was that I know Advil has worked in the past and I was hoping it would work this time too. I would have been disappointed not to be able to bounce back a little q...

Spritz'n Clean Amazing Ion Phone Cleaner

I really like this product.  Cell phones and tablets are among the dirtiest technology that we cannot live without these days.  Do you realize that if you do not clean the screens of the units and continue to use them you are just piling on the germs and spreading them around? If the unit touches your skin on your face when you are using it the germs make contact and this is a perfect a Not to mention the natural oils in your hands smudge the screens and make them unreadable. This is a great product for taking care of those nasty devices and ensuring you get a shiny screen and no germs to spread. You fill the chamber with the cleaning liquid and it comes out in an ionized fine mist on the screen.  You use the special MicroChamois that is infused with silver to wipe the screen.  Silver is known to have antimicrobial/antibacterial properties. That's it.  It could not be simpler and it works!  You get a nice carrying case for the device and a nice pouc...

This is a beautiful bar accessory - this cocktail shaker set.  I heart it for several reasons. 1) Stainless steel is becoming ever more popular these days in kitchen gadgets and accessories.  My household is moving to that genre so I thought this would be a nice set would be a nice start to that in my household. 2) It is not just the shaker that makes this it is also the jigger measure that comes with it in order to measure out 1/2 oz and 1 oz of additives for more precise cocktails. There are also 2 pour spouts which are a great bonus that will ensure the drinks have the right amount of liquor and taste awesome! The set comes boxed nicely.  Inside there is a black velour bag and each piece of the set is packaged in plastic so there are no scratches. The bag is a plus because you can take it with you on the go if your friends don't have a fully stocked set of bar accessories. It also is easy to store it back in the bag which will preserve the beautiful look of ...
