Where I Get Free Stuff: Smile.ly

This is the third post in a series I'm writing about my favorite places to get free products. You can read the first two posts here and here.

Sign up with Smile.ly, and you'll occasionally receive offers to test products in exchange for your feedback. I have gotten a free Schick Quattro razor, and most recently I received coupons for free Country Crock Spread along with high value money off coupons. The more you participate, the more opportunities you'll receive.

Where I Get Free Stuff: Vocalpoint

Vocalpoint is one of my favorite places to receive free products and coupons. I receive offers all the time for free products to try or high-value coupons. Many times I will be surprised by finding a freebie in my mailbox without even knowing it was coming!

Normally I suggest signing up for freebies, etc. with a "junk" email address so that you're not inundated with emails. However, Vocalpoint will send you more products the more active you are on their site. If you're forgetful like me you may want to use an email address that you check regularly so that you're reminded to check in to the site to see what special offers they have!

Where I Get Free Stuff: Expo TV

Expo TV is a great place to earn prizes and test products.

All you have to do is create an account, and soon you will start receiving invitations to review different products. Most of the products that I get invited to review are products that I already have around my house that I've gotten free with coupons (Various brands of dish soap, shampoo, cereal, etc.)

Each invitation is worth a certain number of points, which you receive after you have completed the review.

Each review is a one-minute video review of the product. It's very quick and easy to do, and your points can then be redeemed for prizes and gift cards. My favorite prize is gift cards for Amazon.com or CVS. Reviews generally are worth around 500 points each, and you can get a $5 Amazon.com gift card or CVS gift card for 600 points. Remember, these videos are only one minute long, and you're earning almost $5 each!

Besides earning the prizes or gift cards, occassionally I get invited to a Tryology program. This is where they actually send a free product to your home in exchange for your doing the review. Examples of some of the Tryology programs I've been invited to are Herbal Essences shampoo and conditioner and Tide detergent. Some people get to try bigger products like printers and electric shavers!

If you're not sure how you feel about doing video reviews, don't worry! I didn't like it at first either, but after I'd done my first one, I realized it wasn't so bad. Plus, I love the fact that it's such a quick way to earn Amazon and CVS gift cards - even easier than Swagbucks!

Earn Money and Test Products with Crowdtap

Crowdtap is a great way to earn money online! You'll not make a fortune, but by answering a few questions every day, your earnings will add up over time. You earn 5 cents for each question you answer (quick one-click answers). Your earnings are redeemable for gift cards, my favorite of which is, of course, Amazon.com. I've been using Crowdtap for several months, and I've found it to be a quick and easy way to earn a little each day.

As you use the site, you advance to different levels of membership. I have just gotten to the level where I receive invitations to test various products. I receive free products and also earn money for giving my feedback.

Members can join Crowdtap by invitation only, so I am inviting you to join!
