You know those things "click here to win an Ipod" and you fill out some kinda quiz thingy and what not. Do you know any legit ones that youve tried that DO work. I heard of one for an ipod and you gotta use the link to buy something through ebay which does work apparently but i lost the link and im looking to buy something from ebay. What are some you have tried that really work. Theres probably not many but there must be a few. On a side note does anyone know where to get free magazine subscriptions and stuff?

YOU DO NOT GET ANYTHING FOR FREE! When you learn that, life is much easier to handle.
Everyone wants a hand out or thinks that they are entitled to something, WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING!!!
EARN IT!! Be self sufficient! there is always a catch...no matter what people tell you.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Unless, of course, your a chef.

Rangefinder.com - great magazine & free

All the rest of that crap has always been crap. you click and it says fill out 5 surveys, you do and it says fill out 5 more and order something from 2... (and you'll get your ipod)..... you do and it says fill out 3 more and order from one...... etc.etc.etc... I've never found the end, though I played with a few of them (with my sister's ID, so she would get the spam mail!) lol

But even then you must take time into consideration...

My wife's uncle received approximately $14,000 in cash and goods from sites like those. He says that it is a lot of work though. Also you have to know which sites are legitimate. He even received a Rebel XT for free.

Ya i know they ask to keep filling out stuff and blah blah blah, i forget how it works but someone explained it to me once like the company gets $0.X for every person that does the survey's, and since it asks you to refer X ammount of people, then they have do the same it works out to the company making a profit over the cost of the "free item" Im not asking for some magic site where you get something for nothing, im just wondering if you've found any that do work and are legit. Ill check out that Rangefinder.com too.

Look for the thread (here on DPC) called "Rangefinder Magazine is Free" someone found the right address for Canada and posted it there.

The only things that you get for free make you itch or make it burn when you pee.

Come to think of it, sometimes you pay for that too...
