Trivia Question: Only one state has ZERO national parks–which one is it?

Insert Jeopardy theme music here…………………..Delaware!

Free collage mug from Snapfish

Maybe. The reason I say maybe is that I’m not positive the link will work. And then someone says “Yeah, you’re not supposed to share those links…” But here’s the thing, whenever I get these Snapfish offers, the links never even work for ME! And I am the intended recipient of the email. But it looks like a very nice mug and Mothers’ & Fathers’ Days are not that far off……….so give it a shot. LINK. Offer expires 4/3.

Get FREE stuff with word-of-mouth marketing & some survey links

Word of mouth and social media marketing is all the rage right now. And hey, why not use it to your advantage to get free stuff? Here’s how it usually works–you sign on with a company. They periodically send you free items to try. You then (hopefully) like the items, continue to purchase them as well as tell your friends about them. It doesn’t take a lot of time. Usually you get the item and then one follow up email with a survey. Here are some word of mouth marketing companies you may be interested in:

Bzzagent– I’ve been doing this for several years and like it.

Pssst– General Mills products only,  but good freebies

Kraft First Taste– Kraft items only

Sample Showcase– I don’t do this one, but supposedly it’s good.

Synovate– I’ve done lots of baby wipes, diapers and lotion for them. Plus they pay cash too, in addition to the free items.

Nielsen– this is supposed to be a very good one, and they mail you actual cash in the mail, at random. I haven’t signed up yet.

Valued Opinions– I do this one all the time. I make about $20-$25 a month.

Vocalpoint– I signed up for this more than once, I think that if you are not active on their website, they drop you. I just don’t have the time, but for those that do, they supposedly give out lots of cool stuff.
