Going for SM on SR

[faithhope]

I'm not a big earner on any of the click sites... more of a slow and steady clicker. So this is a big goal for me... so I calculated 91 days in this quarter (but I based my calculations on 85 days to give offers time to credit)...
This means I need to earn approximately $1.18 per day.

I've had good luck with the surveys and can get 60 cents per day from that.
A few cents from emails, clicks and the scratch off...still means I have to do regularly do offers if I want to have a chance of making it.

I just did the helium offer... now I'm off to look for more... I'm still a little bit short of the 6th day goal.

So I want to thank you all who post about different offers, because this is new for me. I also hope to be able to post some info and contribute too.

Just wanted to post my plan to make me stick to it... I'm commited in writing now

Good luck! You can definitely do it!

Once you start doing the larger amount offers, it starts to get addicting. You can do it! Just keep track of everything you do with cancellation phone numbers, who you talked to, the day you signed up, etc. Good luck!

Cafe Belamondo looks like a good one. $10 charge includes shipping for a pound of coffee and a coffee maker, and we get a 7.00 credit. Plus you can cancel without buying anything else.

Some easy ones to start with are:
CinemaNow
GameFly
Passport to Fun
eFax

They are all free trials. You have to give CC info, but you won't get charged for anything as long as you cancel. And they were all easy to cancel too.

Also don't forget about Blockbuster...if you rent movies at all, this one is a good one to do even if you don't keep it. It's also very easy to cancel. Seems like many people like it and keep it though.

Good luck! You can do it!

I was like you as well when I first started SM I just did the clicks, surveys and the little sign ups. A few cents here and a few cents there and then I did my first big trial. Wow that was easy and I made $10 to sign up for something then just call the 800 number and cancel??? Talk about addicting . Good luck making SM you can do it!

update:
it is day 9.
I've done the helium offer (no cost, fun and $3 credit)
the jb sweeps entry (no cost , fast, .75 credit)
I've tried to do surveys as much as I could...5 so far...haven't been able to get one today yet...i'll keep trying.

I'm still $3 short of today's goal... I'm waiting on my refund from gotta play before I can do any big charging offers (Efax seems like a good one to do)

going to see if I can find some more easy free things to do for credit.

I did efax on a different site. You cancel online by chat. Definetly an easy one to try.

 

[Motherofboys]

I did efax too, it was the first "big" offer that I did. It was very easy, cancelled through an online chat. They took the pending charge off of my credit card the next day. Good luck

 

[luvdisney00]

Have you tried Blockbuster? It is a $25.00 credit....very easy money and a reputable company. You even get to watch a few movies before you cancel.

Update- Day 11
As of this morning I'm $3.48 short of today's goal.

I have had a hard time qualifing for surveys the past few days.
But luckily I did get one done today since the reward is .80 instead of the usual .60

I also signed up for efax. Hopefully all will go well with that one since it is a $7 one, and will put me ahead of my goal.

The win moola I did the other day helped keep me on track too (already got credit for it).

I am thinking of doing the sleep aid offer, but prefer to do free offers, but will do it if I fall behind again.

Thanks to everyone posting your good luck (and unfortuately bad luck) with offers. I've filed with my credit card regarding gottaplay...but still waiting for my money back.

The $11 sleep offer was easy. At least for me. Good luck!!

What offers would you suggest? Ones that have fast turn around and higher payout vs. spending ratio.

I like the scholastic ones because my DD loves the books. I usually do not keep the membership - however sometimes I do. I like her to have books around anyway, so those work for me. The payout is about $4-$5.00 if you send them back, I believe. If you call, they will send you a return label to send them back.

I also did the Time Life Recipe one. I have not received the recipes yet though . I like new recipes, so I thought I would give that one a try. I don't think I made too much money on that one though.

I did all, or most of the Grant and Ebay ones. those were not too bad. I did not like the ones that I had to return things though. But the payout was nice.

Helium was a big winner for me... $3 and it was free, and nothing to return.

I don't want to do the book ones because it seems like a hassle to have to return something.

I signed up for EFax yesterday... I think it will be free... but I haven't gotten credit yet (I just did it last night...so it is a little early) but it is for $7

Win Moola was $1.25 credit for free (and fast)
Jim Bean was fast, free and worth 0.75 credit

I can't use our regular credit card for these... and I only have a $30 prepaid card to work with... so I want to do as many free ones as possible. I will probably do the essential sleep aid one soon though (waiting on efax to credit- so I can cancel it)

I'm new at the offers and am very cautious...

update:
It is day 13 and my goal is $15.34 for the quarter.
Efax credit came through so I'm ahead of my goal!!!
I suggest Efax to anyone... it is free and has a good credit value ($7) and was easy to cancel via online chat.
I need to keep doing surveys to keep this going. I'm running out of good free offers, so I hope something new comes along soon.

If nothing better comes up:
The lotto (cost $2 for $14 credit) - will probably end today...
essential sleep aid (cost $5.95 for $11 credit)

but I prefer free ones.

Thanks to everyone and their suggestions. I wouldn't have had the nerve to do any offers if it wasn't for the wonderful people on this board sharing their experiences.

Yes, thank you everyone that shares!
It helps the rest of us discover all the wonderful secrets of SR, and Sr just gets better and better! In the 1 1/2 months I've been using SR, it has been this board that has really gotten me brave enough to try the trials. And now i just love doing trials cause i just love to see that credit go up and up

faithhope,
Did you get the email this morning about the PetcareRx offer? 8.00 credit for a purchase of any amount....and there's a free shipping code too. Check out the other thread!

 

[faithhope]

It is day 16 - my goal is $18.88 for the quarter. I'm happy to say that due to efax, I'm still ahead of my goal, and if I keep up with the surveys, then I should be good for the week.

Hopefully something good and free will pop up this week to keep me on my goal.

Question about surveys... I've been recording my finish time each night to make sure I am only doing one every 24 hours. This has been working well, and I've gotten credit for every survey I've done... the only problem is that the time gets later and later each night as I don't always qualify on my 1st survey. I'll end up having to skip a day now and then just because it gets too late. Any suggestions? Am I going about it in the wrong way? how do you keep track of survey times?

Thanks for all your help and support, I could never even try if it wasn't for the wonderful people on this board.

Faithope,
Do you take digital photos? I just ordered prints from Clark Photo Labs (under shopping, not offers) and got 20 free prints and a $4.00 credit for ordering beyond the free prints. I ordered 50 prints for $7.00 (inc. shipping) and the $4 showing up pending today. Shutterfly and Snapfish have the same deal too. I already am a member of Shutterfly so I can't get credit for that one, but I will try snapfish for my next set of pictures. I would have ordered them anyway.
Hope this can help you stay on track with your goal. I am a supermember this quarter for the 1st time and I love it .
