Using Free Money

For Christmas I mostly shopped with my Amazon funds that I got free from SwagBucks. I can get PayPal, but I try to keep up with both. I get Pay Pal from myLot and a few other things. My doctor recommended some supplements for my health yesterday, and I wanted to get some other essential oils. I decided to use my free PayPal money. I shopped at Puritan's Pride and got a ten percent discount because it is the end of the year, plus I went through Shop and Earn on Swagbucks and will get points for that as well. At the same time Puritan's Pride was running some great buy one get two or get one free sales. Oh, and I got free shipping. So I earned 4 sb per dollar I get free shipping Most items I got two or three for one price I received a ten per cent discount I paid for it with "free money" from myLot It pays to pile up your deals whenever possible. I am starting the New Year off frugally and with things that will help my health. There are many sites that this works on and you do not have to belong to the ones I am on. I am just glad we are all on myLot.

Yup that "free" money comes in handy. I try to do the shop and earn when I buy from Walmart and get the extra SB's back later on. Congrats on your Free shopping trip. Happy New Year.

I love this kind of thing, I always feel super excited and proud I was able to swing something like that. I guess that is our version of a clean and good hunting kill, lol.

I made out like a bandit. I usually save up my points on the different sites until the end of the year and then use it for the holidays since that is the most expensive time of the year for me. I am planning to do about the same as you are. Have several Amazon gift cards left and will buy health supplements from there. I am not sure how to combine my SB and Amazon but will see if I can. I think I missed out last time because I wasn't using money but my cards so it didn't count on SB.

I love using rewards, and paying little to no money! All your hard work paid off.

it's great to be here in myLot. This is such a nice place to interact with. And a nice place to earn (though slow earning but still worth the time as I can gain knowledge from various people around here)

I have occasionally used PayPal for online purchases, but usually just leave the money there as a reserve.

Free money is always the most fun to spend.

It's fun being here. I mostly use my credit card for real world purchases, and PayPal for on-line purchases.

You did get some good deals, that's really awesome! I bought some stuff on Amazon through swag and it never gave me my points for it. I'm going to have to write an email to them and investigate the problem
