A few ways to make and save money online. Share your findings....

Hi, I'm a stay-at-home mom and I've been researching ways to make and save a little money especially now during the holiday season. Here are a few things I have found that really work. Thought I'd share what I have found. 1)Online shopping? Get some cash back from Ebay, Old Navy, Target, Best Buy.... On Big Crumbs, Quick Rewards, and Ebates, if you go through them to get to many online sites you get some cash back on your purchases. If you plan on doing holiday shopping anyway online, this is a good deal. There are lots of stores (Overstock, Circuit City, Gap, Apple Store, HP, buy.com, ...) They have a huge list. It's totally free. It looks like they makes money from these sites advertising on their site. They provide links to the stores and when you buy stuff from the links you get a certain percentage back. I think you can still use your own coupons when you go to check out at the online store from whatever site you go to. You can also get cash when you friends buy stuff as well. On Big Crumbs and Quick Rewards, you can keep earning a % when your friends buy stuff, but on Ebates you only get a flat $5 when someone you refer buys something for the first time. But, Ebates gives you higher percentages back and you get $5 for yourself when you sign up. On Quick Rewards you can get some cash other ways as well. You earn free cash by visiting websites, shopping, daily signups, daily trivia, signups, trials, surveys and much more. Here are the links: Big Crumbs: http://www.bigcrumbs.com/crumbs/frontpage.jsp?r=mbelkin Quick Rewards: http://www.quickrewards.net/q.cgi?201u.ref=rachelcaron@hotmail.com Ebates: http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?id=31699060 2)Write reviews on Epinions. I have made $205.14 from writing reviews every so often. I'm going to try and start writing more. It's real easy to write a review, especially now that we have so many baby produts to write on. You get a few cents every time someone reads your review. www.epinions.com 3) This is not really a way to make money, but more a way to save some. I found a great site/forum where people post coupon codes and links to freebies. www.vickysdeals.com 4)Restaurant.com occasionally sends out codes to get 50% off restaurant certificates. You can buy these gift certificates cheaply and then resell them on ebay. You also make money when your friends sign up. http://www.restaurant.com/ReferAFriend.asp?ReferralID=F373D3432303 5) If you have a degree, are an expert in a particular field, or just are good at researching topics you can make some money answering people's questions. I recently started this. You have to first answer a few questions in a particular topic to be an expert in that category. There seem to be a lot of different types of questions being asked. http://www.justanswer.com/home.asp?r=rachelcaron&bn=2 Hope this helps. I know especially this time of year I'm always looking for ways to make and save money.
