How to get Free Stuff and Money on the Internet #1
Do you ever sit around at the computer with nothing much to do, maybe just chatting with friends?  Why not get something out of your time online?  Everybody likes free stuff and with the Internet there are tons of ways to get stuff for free you just need to know where to look.  I’m going to share some of my favourite sites and ways to make money online.  I hope you enjoy them!

*Radio Station Loyalty Programs
More and more radio stations are offering points to their loyal listeners which they can then redeem for prizes.  Two radio stations in my town do; Q92 and EZrock.  All I have to do is listen to the radio at certain times of the day and then enter which ever code word is said or song that is played on the website.  If I ever miss it, it’s multiple choice, so I just guess.  Obviously this depends on where you live, but it’s well worth checking out.
-So far I’ve won 75$ gift certificate for a clothing store, 3 CDs (Lenny Kravitz, Blink 182 and a collection of love songs), a T-shirt, and a set of tickets for a hockey game.  I still have lots of points.  Right now I’m just waiting for something I really want to come up.

*TeenFX.com
I had to mention TeenFX.  I personally love the site.  Sure, it’s been around for years and hasn’t changed very much, but it’s really easy to get points and they are very reliable when delivering prizes.  Try to log on everyday, which gives you 5 points right away.  It is so easy to rack up points even if you don’t feel like coming up with polls and articles yourself, just go nuts and answer a bunch of polls and do quizzes.
-I’ve redeemed my points twice now; once for the Bobbe Pot bobbe pins, and the second time for the Wigo straightening iron (which I love).  I still have lots of points.

*Kiwibox.com
Kiwibox is a nice site.  There is always lots to do and all kinds of new stuff.  At the moment they’re working on completely revamping the look of the site, so keep checking it.  The downfall is that it takes years to get points and the only way to get them is by playing games; and trust me you get sick of those game pretty quickly.  The plus side is that they always have lots of really good contests going on.  Some all you have to do is click to enter, but others require a little more work.
-I’ve won two bracelets and some stickers, and just recently I won an Xbox, Kevin Michael CD and autographed T-shirt

*Student.com
This website has a nice layout.  There are all kinds of thing to keep you busy, and different ways to get points.  You get some for answering questions of the day, playing games, etc.  There are also all kinds of draws, especially around Christmas.  The one thing I don’t like is that to get prizes you have to bid on an auction, so if somebody really wants something and they have much more points than you do, you don’t stand a chance.
-As of yet I haven’t gotten anything from this site, but I’m keeping an eye on the auctions in case there’s something I want.

This concludes part one of my guide to free stuff and money on the Internet.  I’ll write up a part 2 if I see there is enough interest.  If you have any questions feel free to ask.  And if you sign up to any sites, I’d really appreciate if you said ‘andythealien’ referred you.

Also, bzzagent.com (I think you have to be 18+ for that as well), M80 Teams (Google it), Tremor for teenagers (also Google it), Vocalpoint for mothers (also google), startsampling.com, walmart.com's free samples page (I think it's http://walmar  t.triad  digital  .com/fr  ee-samples.aspx)

The stuff you order from Kiwibox is apparently really slow. As for contests it depends because most of them go through a third party. I've received stuff from a contest in less than a month and I'm in Canada. I'm still waiting on the Xbox, but I expect it'll take some time for it to get through the border.

I heard you never get the free things you order from kiwibox. Have any info on that?
