Viewpoints: Write 5 qualifying reviews, get a $5 Amazon gift card!

I’ve been loving all of these Viewpoints promotions for Amazon gift cards lately! Their latest is a “$5 for 5 promotion” You get a $5 Amazon.com gift card for writing five qualifying reviews. This will be a great way to add more money to your 100% Cash Christmas fund! In case you are wondering if this offer is “legit” I have participated in few Viewpoints promotions over the past few months and I have always earned my gift cards, so I will definitely be participating in this promotion!  For more ideas on how to earn Amazon gift cards, check out m post here on Six Ways to Find your Amazon Addiction!

Qualifying reviews must:

-be written between April 7th and April 18, 2011

-be at least 700 characters long (about 1 full paragraph). The character counter provided at the top right of the review form will show the count as you type your review.

-fall within qualifying categories: Home Appliances or Kitchen Appliances

-be about real products; inappropriate, copied or bogus content is ineligible for this promotion.

-not be combined with any other offer or affiliate program – If you are currently participating in an incented program with a partner (examples: Inbox Dollars, Send Earnings, Mypoints) you are ineligible for an Amazon.com Gift Card because you cannot receive double incentives for the same reviews. However, once you have fulfilled your incented program requirements, you are able to participate in this and future Viewpoints sponsored promotions. Full details for this promotion are here.

Viewpoints.com agrees to validate all entries within 30 days of the promotion’s conclusion. Each review must be original content and uniquely created for Viewpoints.com and cannot be copied from any other online source. All Amazon.com Gift Card claim codes will be emailed out within 30 days after the program concludes.  Maximum payout is one $5 Amazon.com Gift Card claim code per participant during the promotion period.

Mega Swagbucks Friday + 80 Swagbucks bonus for new members!

Are you “Swagging” yet?  If you are, please consider donating some of your Swagbucks to help Japan.  You can donate in increments of 5 Swagbucks and the Swagbucks will be converted to a cash donation.  They have extended the deadline for donations to Monday, May 2nd. Also, don’t forget that today is Mega Swagbucks Friday which means you can earn even MORE Swagbucks when you search!!

If you’re not familiar with Swagbucks, you earn “Swagbucks” by searching online and your Swagbucks can then be redeemed for gift cards or other prizes and merchandise.  I typically redeem mine for Amazon gift cards.  I used them to pay for a number of Christmas gifts this year, but also used them to buy things our family needed like Pull Ups, batteries, a booster seat, razor cartridges, and books.

If you haven’t joined Swagbucks yet, now is a great time.  You’ll earn 80 Swagbuckswhen you sign up here and enter the code HelpJapan! Please Note: The code IS case sensitive!  You only have until Monday, May 2nd at 12 pm PDT to take advantage of this offer and earn the bonus bucks (you’ll earn 30 bucks still for signing up after this time).

*Do the Daily Poll every day and earn one buck (you can access this from the link on the left side of the main page)

*Visit Trusted Surveys every day – you’ll earn one buck just for visiting and you may earn even more for completing surveys!

*Check out the No Obligation Special Offers (NOSO) – you don’t have to complete any offers, but you will earn one buck just for scrolling through them!

*Watch Swag TV – you earn points just for watching funny videos!

*Play Games – Swagbucks just added a new games feature, which you’ll find on the tab on the left of your home page and you can win bucks by playing games now, too!

*Do a few searches every day until you win at least once. I search for things that I would normally be searching for online anyway and I have found that I can easily earn 10-30Swagbucks each day by doing this. Your searches do need to be “natural” searches. If it does not seem like your searches are legitimate, they may freeze or even close your account.

*If you have a Facebook account, become a “fan” of Swagbucks on Facebook. Clickhere to do this. If you check out the wall, there are bonus codes posted from time to time that you can add to your account. (To add bonus codes, log into Swagbucks, and then click on the icon that says “You have X Swagbucks.” There will be a box that says this: Have a SwagCode? Just enter it here and receive your SwagBucks instantly! Enter your code and click GIMME!)

*Publish your Swagbucks winnings on Facebook – when you “win” a buck, you now have the option of posting your win on Facebook. It shows up on your profile and it’s another way to promote your Swagbucks account (and get more ‘friends’)

*Read the Swagbucks blog (you can access this here). Bonus codes are posted here, as well.

*Sign up for the Swagbucks newsletter. They send bonus codes embedded in the newsletter, so it’s an easy way to earn extra Swagbucks!

*Download the Swagbucks Toolbar onto your internet browser – Click on the “toolbars” option on the left hand side of the website after you log in and follow the instructions! (you will earn one buck each day just for using the toolbar)

*Post the Swidget on your blog or your Facebook page. You can download it here.

*Tell all your friends – When your friends sign up under you, you win when they win for the first 1000 Swagbucks (this does not include any Swagcodes that they enter)

I have found that I typically earn at least 30 Swagbucks per day just by doing the things listed above. That adds up to 900 Swagbucks in one month’s time (or 2 $5 Amazon gift cards!). I work full time and I only do searches from home (non working hours) and I’m able to do this, so it isn’t something that you have to spend a lot of time on, but you should easily be able to earn $120 in Amazon gift cards in a year’s time. If you’d rather have gift cards for somewhere else, that would give you enough to cash out for $100 in Target gift cards (these can only be used online) or for 8 $10 Starbucks gift cards. If your goal is to do a 100% Cash Christmas next year, this will help you!
