I've compiled my 'best of' list of free ipod/consoles/cash/whatever sites, along with details on how to use them best.
http://Freeapplegear.com/index.php?referral=1012 (http://\"http://Freeapplegear.com/index.php?referral=1012\")
This is my new favorite site. I completed the ameriquest offer and got credit for it one day later. They have lots of apple stuff, imacs, ipods, etc. It takes 1 extra referall to have an item shipped to Canada. Some tips on the ameriquest site:
- If you're from the states, use at least sort-of real info. Real zip code, real area code, etc. If you want to do it from Canada, which you can do, you need to cheat. I think they might be taking down this offer soon because so many people are cheating (guilty). I said i was from new york, new york, and used a new york zip code (10010) and area code for my phone number (212). If you're going to cheat then you still have to be careful, and may have the site tell you they can't complete your request. If this happens, just go back and do it again with slightly different answers to their questions.
If you can't get it to work, feel free to e-mail me (email provided at the end of page 2).

The easiest way I've found to get an ipod. Works in the US and Canada very well. And best of all, they have the ebay offer. To complete the ebay offer, you just have to use the sites link to ebay, register for an account, and be the highest bidder on something. Some e-mails require you to enter a credit card to ebay, but others (www.airsoftemail.com is my favorite, www.walla.com also works well) don't require a credit card, so you can just get an email on one of those sites and use that. It's a good idea to use the same email to sign up for ebay that you used for myfreeapple.com. It's also a good idea to use real information, because this site checks very closely to make sure they're not getting scammed. After you register for ebay, at some point in the next 30 days you have to be the highest bidder on some item. The best way to do this is to search for something verygeneric (i.e. xbox or laptop) and look through the site, especially at auctions that don't end for a long time, and try to find something that's ridiculously cheap. If there's an xbox with a lowest bid for $10, then you can bid to get your offer completed with no chance of winning the system. It takes a long long time for myfreeapple.com to recognize that you completed offers however, which is a big downside, but patience prevails!

This site is great because they have such a wide selection of prizes. I'm currently working on 10 referalls for $450 cash. Most of their offers require a credit card, but many just use your credit card to charge you after a free trial is over, and if you cancel before the free trial is over, then you don't get charged for anything! Efax is probably the best offer because it's free and easy, just cancel before 30 days is up. Lots of the 'free samples' are great to do too because they only cost you about $8 or so and, hey, they're not bad stuff! I actually got vitamins from 'mydailydose' and $8 for really good price for a weeks worth of good vitamins.
http://www.GoShopFree.com/?id=24875 (http://\"http://www.GoShopFree.com/?id=24875\") is a site that I'm not too familiar with, but just recently found out that you could complete your own offers on it, so I signed up! They offer lots of stuff, like gaming consoles and ipods. They have the ebay offer, and claim you can do it yourself as many times as you want, making new airsoftemail.com accounts and registering again and again. Haven't tested it out just yet, but I'm sure planning on.
http://prize.exfuga.com/index.php?rid=11958 (http://\"http://prize.exfuga.com/index.php?rid=11958\") has some great pros and cons. Pros: ebay offer! refer yourself! actually works! (i've completed this one once)
Cons: They require a lot more offers to be completed than most other websites, especially if you're doing the ebay offer. This is also a pro though because that means they care less about you trying to scam them.
http://www.freefossil.com/?r=1468 (http://\"http://www.freefossil.com/?r=1468\") gives away really nice watches for a very low amount of referalls, and has the ebay offer. If you're in Canada, then it's kind of hard to fill out the registration, but they don't explicitly say US only, so you can try and fill it out and if you actually complete the offer then email them, or you can sign up for the paypal money and then your shipping information doesn't matter at all.
So those are all my favorites. Here are some tips in general about getting the most out of these sites.
Tips and Hints:
- don't give fake information to these sites. It'll just screw you over in the end.
- remember to cancel any offers that used credit card before they charge you
- make sure that the free-whatever website recognized that you completed an offer before you cancel free trials. if you sign up and cancel a free trial right away, you won't get credit.
- be patient. it takes time for these websites to recognize that you completed an offer.
- check back to the offer websites often. They are constantly adding and taking away offers.
- don't bother to do multiple offers on one free-product at myfreeappleipod.com and techgear4free. It won't get you anywhere
- don't sign up for multiple accounts on the two above sites either. if they catch you (which they probably will since they look for duplicated i.p. addresses) your accounts will all be suspended
- don't get someone else to sign up for an offer on your computer for the same reason.
- read the 'terms and conditions' of every offer you complete
- If you're using a browser other than internet explorer (such as firefox) then you might not get credit from websites because firefox and other browsers block cookies, which are required to let websites know how you accessed their site.
