Google Voice

You have to request an invite from here:
https://services.google.com/fb/forms/googlevoiceinvite/

I waited almost 6 weeks for my invite approval. However, once I got it, I was amazed at what was offered. Lots of options, in addition you are able to pick your own number.
I will be reporting back or this topic once I've reviewed all the features. However, in the US calls are free, SMS text messages are free.

Google, starts out by giving users a credit of $.10 for calls out of the United States.

You can forward you Google Voice number up to 6 phones with a special ring with call screening and caller id. Great if you have a small business.

However, Terms of Service is limited to 18+, but anyone with an email address can apply for an account, which means kids can live a obtain one.

This could be good, if you have family who does not live in the same area code. You can get a number from anywhere like their area code, so all call to you from them can be local.

If you are really creative, you can even search for numbers using "Key Word" search.

** ALWAYS - ALWAYS READ THE FINE PRINT ON THESE **
Some say after min. purchase of $50, other say non-alcoholic beverages, it's pretty much at the discretion of the place. As long as you read the fine print, these are well worth the price, you are pretty much eating for free.. and who doesn't like free?

People in my area, St. Clair Inn participates in these, so you can use them there. I think Murrphy's does too, but not 100% sure.

Tip #1 on how to get free money

Here are some things that I found for "Free Money". Who knew that these kinds of things sell. Cost about a whole $1.05 to list on ebay, nothing fancy or anything. But they are selling, and it's something we all have (or know someone who does that we can get to save or collect for us to sell). Have fun! Enjoy

Sold for $7.45

What is it? I have no idea, some code for an online community. Seen them selling and remembered, someone once gave me a stuff animal with an army uniform and they had codes in them, never used it, and just set it aside...

Sold: $5.50

Ok, doing the math, 50 x .10 = $5.00.. I made this an extra .50 off something
that I would have just thrown away or donated to the school and not ever seen a penny from it.

Updated: 09/06/09 @ 18:32 EST

Sold: $12.50

If you add the 130 x .10 that is $13, so $12.50 for something I was just going to donate to the school and not see a penny of it, really isn't that bad.

Free mp3's - Dead No longer active

50(or hundres more) Free songs downloads from Hooah! (Universal Music and the National Guard) Sign up for the Hooah points here [1800goguard.com]

One you signup, answer some of the questions (either search the site or google - 30 seconds to find all the answers). Get 500 points, and cash them in. You've just got 50 free downloads.
(I was able to get 2 codes for 100 downloads could get more if I had more points)

You can search the site [amplified.com] first if you would like. 1 credit for a single, and 2 credits for ringtones.

50 Universal Music Song Downloads
One code will allow you to download 50 songs from Universal Music

It's National Guard who is offering. No spam, I've been contacted by a recruiter, but told them I wasn't interested in the Guard and asked to be removed from their contact list and haven't been called since (about a year ago).

FYI, not sure if it was my Window Media Player or if it came from the site this way, but the *.wma files were DRM protected I also downloaded the single by Weezer Beverly Hills and it was not protected and came in *.mp3 format.

There has been a lot of buzz about "mirakagi" I would say check it out for good info on DRM.

$10 iTunes Gift Card

$10 iTunes gift card for the 1st 100 SysAdmins to sign up Aprigo's Sysadmin Appreciation Day Giveaway [storagemonkeys.com]

From now until the morning of July 31st, sysadmins and IT Managers are encouraged to sign up here. The first 100 who sign up will receive a $10 iTunes gift card via email on 7/31.

A little bit about Aprigo (for those of you who are here for the first time): We’re a Waltham, MA based startup building a suite of SaaS IT Applications that help IT Pros in mid-size companies better manage massive file growth both on-site and in the cloud. We’ll be launching the free version of our product next month, and if you sign up for the giveaway we’ll let you know as soon as our free product is ready.

Here’s how the giveaway works:

If you’re currently a sysadmin or IT manager at a company, just fill in the form here. On July 31st, we’ll send you an email with a code that you can redeem at iTunes.

There are only 3 rules:

1. You have to be a sysadmin or IT Manager at a company (ideally at a company with 100 or more employees)- We’d love to give these away to everyone, but hey, we’re a startup, so please enter only if you’re really a sysadmin at a company.
2. Only one entry per person
3. You have to use a valid work email address. We can’t accept entries from gmail addresses, hotmail, etc., as it’s incredibly easy to create a bunch of bogus email addresses to get repeat entries

Scratch This (Win Free Money)

So I just started on this site, it seems pretty nice. Kind of reminds me of the old days netwinner.com (funny they are no longer around). I do not know much about this site, other than I was able to hit the $1000 buy playing the Scratch or No Scratch Game.

Moola

So if you have a few seconds to kill, you can try to win some extra money (nothing out of your pocket of course). By playing Moola, it's a game where you simply 1v1 on one of 4 flash games. You start with a penny ($.01) and you move up by doubling it ever game you play.

What's better, is if you have a big friends email list, you can send them invites, and collect off their winnings. I've had the account for over a year now and have been able to case out 2 times now, once from my winnings and the second time from friends winnings. (The reason I didn't play was I was deployed to IRAQ).

Good Luck!

No Pay Poker? You win real money

So I signed up for the nopaypoker.com website. I've been forever banned from playing poker in my house (long story don't ask). The great thing is, money never leaves my pocket, yet I am able to cashout!! What could be better? No if you've played at one of the bigger sites, like pokerstart.com or fulltilt.com, then you will have no problem with this site. Just use a little caution however, since it is unlimited money paid by advertisers, people tend to go all-in a lot more often than if it was their hard earned money. But if you are a solid player, you should have no problem with making that bank roll in no time at all.



In addition, I love the freeroll tournaments, they are forever starting. In addition, you recieve tickets for special tables for certain fuctions. Payout is a little weak all in all, but hey, it's free.

I've was able to cash out after only the first day on the tables. You have to earn $3000 FreeD's as what it's called on the site for a cash out of $30 from paypal. Since your not paying anything for the site, the poker room is 100% legal in the US.

What's also cool, is you can set up a room using facebook with all of your friends as well. So if your like me, and play the weekend poker games, you already know who's sitting at the table and how they play. Good Luck..

Old Navy Coupon Deal - $75 off $100

So OldNavy.com is offering a sweet coupon deal from their website oldnavyweekly.com

If your anything like me, it's back to school time so this would be greatly needed about now.

There is however one catch (isn't there always?) Well it's not like what you would expect catch, you don't have to spend any $$ or anything. The catch is simply that you have to beat out all of the devoted followers of slickdeals.net and fatwallet.com members. Not too mention all of the other sites that piggy back off these sites. So good luck readers.. I know that I will be trying.
