I'm using Ciao, slicethepie, dooyoo and review stream at the minute. Ciao, dooyoo and review stream are all review sites where you basically write reviews on other products to help people out. Slicethepie is also a review site however this time you are reviewing music. Ciao pays you $1 per review and if you get rated the money starts to add up. You get paid out via paypal on the 15 of every month, however you need to cash out the month before to get it the following month. Dooyoo is a UK based review site and you get paid £0.50 for each review. You can either cash out on £10 in amazon vouchers or £50 in cheque. Slicethepie you can cashout on £5 via paypal.

I don't really need to make extra money for Christmas. I do have some savings and my parents usually gives me some money to spend on shopping even when I don't ask for it. But I have online "businesses" to support my expenses. I earn from mylot and RS and another forum. I plan to use my online funds to buy myself a new digcam though. Hopefully I can earn enough by December! :)

I usually volunteer for the Salvation Army...not just for christmas but to help my family get through the last bit of winter. Because they give you what's called a "meal pay"...to make sure you get fed as you work for them. The more you work, the more meal pays you get...and it adds up to a decent amount at the end of the month (since I don't use it for myself, but for my whole family...like to be a ham, or gas). I like that I help them get hundreds of dollars by ringing the bells for poor families every christmas...and I like how the meal pays add up to help us stay away from the line where, if crossed, WE'D be one of those families who need their help...again lol.

earning money in the internet is the easiest way.. but i prefer making money with some sort of effort.. like my mom.. hehehe... for now.. just for now.. ill just include my mom in the discussion.. my mom is a real estate agent.. she earn money by selling a house and lot.. last week she earn around 100,000PHP - 120,000PHP it is equal to more or less 2,000USD just by selling a 2.8m house and lot.. her commission is 6% of the selling price.. its a one time big time sale... she sold 15 house and lot already... so.. do the math...

that reviews sites sound great! i think i just forget about them. i joined review stream months ago and so far i only wrote one rejected review i think i should try it. the extra money from internet i got only from mylot. i just reach minimum payout on bux.net, and i had requested for payment. but it have been almost two weeks and they haven't send the money, my money. i don't know. if bux.net don't send the money, nobody will get Christmas gift from me LOL.

I have heard of those sites that you are writing about but I am not a member of any of them,maybe they asre worth considering,but I have never written a review in my life lol and I have no idea where to start!But re christmas,everyone will have what I can afford,no more and no less,my grandchildren are the main ones that I need to think of,in fact apart from token gifts for adults they are the only ones I have to think of lol.I like to giv some money to their parents,and then they can go and choose something that they think the children would like.I know it would be good to be able to go out and just buy what we thought,but in practise that is fine,in theory no,as the children would end up having duplicares,they have so much these days.Maybe I will take a good look at these review sites !

Why don't you do all the reviews in one site instead of spreading them everywhere? Im just trying to save money in real life right now, and some MyLot of course. Have nice day.
