LOL !

Must be a new strain of the Influenza indeed.


Anyhow, yeah receive free stuff online - mostly from the testing panels I am a member of, one of them is known by many here, called Pinecone Research, one of the best panels in my opinion, though I am not allowed to mention the brands or products I receive, but basically mostly food products (sorry, no noodles yet )

I've received samples (food and other) from other panels before and through free offers site online, etc.

But beware, if you are getting those FREE samples from a non survey panel, these will come at a cost of possible telemarketing, snail mail spam, e-mail spam, etc....... Though I never had any of those issues from the stuff I get from the survey panels like pinecone or other.

Most of the samples I get from PC are quite generous lol - One time I received an entire, large box of a food product, not just a single sample item. I get paid for the survey part + the sampling part.

I've gotten some free detergent ball thingies you throw in your dishwasher or washer and different items of the sort from those free offers sites.

And yes as Valerie, I too received the granola samples - bloody delicious (Got 8 of those actually with different flavours...........) scent stuff, magazines, books, etc.

The thing I've not gotten yet is the PCH guy knocking on my door to tell me that I won $10 million !!!

I get some things through Pinecone some times but not real often.
What I don't like about Pinecone, they consistently send those product questionnaire updates.
I have received pizza's, cleaning products, snacks, pet stuff, etc. Not a whole lot but I do get
stuff from time to time from them.

I do post varying topics at times because it allows members that
may have an interest in those things, to post. Not everyone is into
arguing politics and name calling.

Remember, links not allowed.

Just wondered if you get free stuff from online?

I do all the time. I get a lot of little stuff too.

Today I received some sort of citrus odor eliminator card. I put it on top of my cat's litter box.

The other day I received two box's that contained 7 pills each of Align probiotic.
Also received some sort of vitamins.

Also recently I received a cute blue diabetic case. No, I am not diabetic but figure it must be due to
a survey I had taken. It's really cute tho and a cell phone fits in it.

I get a lot of magazines free. I receive everything from business mags, travel, to home decor.

Reminds me of when I was a kid about ten years old. My best friend and I loved getting stuff in
the mail and we would order everything that was free or cheap. Everything from those cat posters
from 1960 comic books, dancing monkeys (they were really tiny shrimp), and other useless stuff.
It was fun.

I've received food items too, such as samples of granola bars.

I know some of this stuff comes from surveys I may take. Still, some are things that I do actually
see online for free and order.

I can't think of anything else to advertise on Clixsense. So is there a way to use those ad credits to advertise Clixsense on other sites? Perhaps I shouldn't have been so quick to buy ads before determining how to use them.

When you purchase ad credits at ClixSense, it is to advertise to ClixSense members.

Not sure why you would buy advertising if you didn't have anything to advertise.

The good news is, you can probably submit a support ticket and get a refund, especially
if it hasn't been too long since you made the purchase.

I know we don`t get credited for clixsense itself, i am talking about other sites banner or promotional/affiliate links while we spend for other sites link here thats it....

I'm not totally sure I understand what you are asking.

You can of course purchase credits to advertise your websites or blogs or affiliate
programs or other programs you are in.

You can also use your earnings to purchase advertising credits.

@lotoole That's kind of funny and it does make you wonder what they did so differently.
Green thumb, perhaps.

I think I have decided to make a very small garden and have used my trusty shovel to
start it today. It's about an 18 x 15. I think I will make the rows on the short side. I
can have a couple of rows of tomatoes and bell peppers and still have plenty of space
for other stuff. I am going to make another area, of a few hills for stuff like cantaloupe.

The larger I make it, the more work will be involved and the more hoeing I will need to
do. Also, I need to see how it does in the area I chose. There is a couple of trees I
thought about cutting down. Maybe I will do that come winter.

davidbugs wrote: Valarie. It's no different calling taxi drivers at all. Your taxi drivers can be dangerous.

Really, David. Gees!

I grew up in Chicago land. I took the bus for 20 cents every where I went.
I also took the subway trains.

In addition, taxi's were a huge part of life up there. My grandmother for
years and years and years had a taxi come to the house and take her to
work and when her shift was over, she had a taxi take her home.

One time Mickey Rooney gave us a ride home by taxi when after we finished
shopping down town. I was just a kid and was sitting on the little pop seat
and I said 'You look like Mickey Rooney'. Turns out, he was. Was getting
hands on experience for some acting role he was doing.

So all those years, guess what? We never died by the hands of a taxi driver.

Just so you know, taxi drivers must complete applications and have spotless records.

davidbugs wrote: Valarie. You can became uber driver. All you just need a smartphone. You are ready to go make money by picking customer. It's a technology taxi drivers.

If you guys does not have have a job. You can became uber driver and also refer a friend can pay up to 150 dollars each.

I kind of thought that might be what it is.

I wouldn't dare do that. For starters, if you are the driver how do you know you
are not picking up a killer.....and vice versa......which has in fact happen recently.

I was paid by them - but only once, then they stopped.

YES! That's it! I was going nuts trying to remember that name.
For some reason I was thinking it had the word 'mail' to it so I
was way off and probably would have never recalled the name.

I thought about using 'way back' but that is not helpful if I
don't even know the name.

No, I never was paid anything but maybe I didn't use it enough.
I don't know but apparently it wasn't all that since it didn't last.

Thanks for the name reminder.

davidbugs wrote: Anyone in here ever take uber ride?

To tell you the truth, I don't really even know what it is. I assume it is sort
of like a taxi service of some sort.

I seriously doubt I will ever experience it. I have my own vehicle and do
not need a taxi service.

BouldRake wrote: SendMoreInfo, MintMail, HTMail?

mail.com was the opposite - you paid them, it was one of the first to offer you paid pop3 accounts.

Older than those.

Actually I did get paid with a couple of those I think.....HTMail and SendMoreInfo.
I do recall I think, advertising with those. I never used MintMail.

There was another one that was an actual email account. You would log into your
email account just like you would gmail or any other. They gave the impression
that you would want to read your email in there because you would earn if you
did. Mixed in with it was ads. In fact, they were probably the first email to place
ads in the view users view. I mean it seemed everyone used this email because
they figured why not....they'll get paid. After a long time tho, users started
complaining because we were never paid anything.....BUT then there was always
a few posting on a forum some where that they got paid. I've tried doing a
search and I can't find it. Driving me crazy not remembering the name.

I don't know but one thing is for sure, don't drink the water.

@mary705 Years ago I had an outside dog that loved to dig. He would dig huge deep holes.
It was almost an every day task of filling the holes.

@lotoole That is a lot of work down the drain, for sure. There's a ton of critters here and
moles.....moles.....moles. In regards to the tiller, that is exactly why I am considering
purchasing a small one.....in that I may not ever plant another garden.
Years ago I had a Troy that was very expensive. I only used it one season and sold it to
an Amish couple.

I do wish I had helped my grandfather in the veggie garden and watched how he planted
things. We had huge gardens and large strawberry patch. What we did back then was
share with family, friends, and neighbors. They'd help pick the stuff and mostly keep
what they picked because we couldn't use it all. The friends etc would have something
they grew that we didn't have and we'd go over to their garden and pick that. There
would be shelling time and I can recall friends and family sitting on the porch breaking
beans. I thought it fun to dig for potatoes so I would barely help do that some times.

Later when I married, we had tobacco because that is primarily the crop that was grown
for money in that area and that is the what his family always grew. They had corn and
stuff but I don't think they bothered much with a garden.....and they had TEN children!

It wouldn't make sense to advertise ClixSense to ClixSense members.
ClixSense members are already ClixSense members.

No, you don't have to advertise anything at all.

If you purchase ad credits, your ad will be viewed by admin and then
approved if it meets requirements. Basically you can advertise anything
you want as long as it applies to the rules ... no adult stuff, etc.

No you don't get credit for advertising.

Mail.

Wasn't one of those @mail.com ?

Gee I cannot remember the name of the one that was so popular that promised
to pay its members for using it. I never got paid a cent. It was simple name.

I use a variety of browsers but primarily I use only Safari on my MAC.

Sorry Val.

Ferry Morse owned by Monsanto

That's kind of an old list so it might even be more now, or less.

Most of what I am planting is as I stated, Augason Farms.
Augason Farms sells the dooms day pepper stuff. It's pretty
good food too, most of it anyway that I have tried.

I just hope I can keep the critters away from the garden.

This is the seeds I have.....not an affiliate link:

Everyone says I have to wait 5-7 days, but I got paid within 4 and a bit days. It's disgusting! If it carries on at this rate, whose to say when we'll be getting paid in the future? Four days just isn't long enough when you're all telling me to count working days. It's not on, get your act together, I'm going to tell everyone you're paying quickly, see how that hurts your business, and so on, and so forth, etc.

I think he is getting caught up now so the time should be a bit more on the 2 to 5
business days instead of the 2 to 7 business days.

So hilarious but I really am not laughing at those that get so tore up about their
payments be a day later than they think it should be. They're just afraid they
won't get paid.

Well, I primarily use a MAC and Safari browser. Even so when I use pc's, I always copy what
I type before I submit.

With this forum, however, all you need do if it times out when you hit submit, is hit close
if you didn't save it.....by hitting 'close' you can copy and save and then hit the 'auto log in'.

No Monsanto Seeds For Me.

No No Frankenstein Veggies.

I have a few varieties of seeds. Mostly what I am planting is Augason Farms non-hybrid garden seeds.
Then I also have some 'Ferry Morse' packet seeds. Those are some that I purchased from Walmart a
couple of years ago. They actually come from Fulton, KY.

I didn't realize monsanto sold veggie seeds to consumers. Never thought about it really.
Monsanto does in fact often control farmers with their seeds......referring to crops. Bunch
of craziness to that. Which is also a good reason to plant your own vegetables.
