FREE Amazon gift cards and other prizes - 100% FREE!

Sign up for Swagbucks! It's easy to do and you get 3 swagbucks right away if you use the link below. I have cashed out for five $5 amazon.ca gift cards in January, and have redeemed for a total of $65 amazon.ca gift cards. There are other prizes as well, other gift cards, comics, Wii consoles, PS3, nintendo DS, you name it! They offer a ton of prizes. All you have to do is search and you might be rewarded with points. The fastest way to earn though, is to enter a swagcode. Usually there is one a day!

Another prize site, Superpoints. I just joined it recently, but you basically play the lucky button everyday to win points. You can also search and win, or invite friends, do surveys or complete offers. Every 500 points gets you a $5 Amazon gift card (though there are other prizes to redeem for as well). I just click the super lucky button everyday, and that's about it. It doesn't take very long, and it's a great addition to all the gift cards you can get from Swagbucks.

It's Coming...

The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics is starting in 9 days! After a seven year wait, I can't believe it's finally here. The city has been working hard to build new venues and fix up old ones, getting it ready for the games. We now have the Canada Line, a skytrain that goes between the YVR Airport and Waterfront Station in downtown Vancouver. The new Richmond Olympic Oval will host speed skating events, and the UBC Winter Sports Centre will have ice hockey games. The excitement is palpable when you head downtown. Many buildings are decorated Olympic themes, and store shelves are lined with Olympic merchandise. And who can forget those cute Olympic mascots? While I agree they are not the best representatives of Vancouver, and that they were probably chosen for their marketability and commercialization to children, who can resist those cuties?! In just a little over a week, Vancouver will be bustling with visitors from around the world. It's an amazing feeling to be part of it and I look forward to the start of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics!

Paid to Click Site

Now here's an interesting paid to click site I found yesterday. It's called Ten Dollar Click. Just like any other paid to click site, you click on websites and you get paid for them. The only difference is you get $10 per click (you need to stay on the website for 1 minute). Cashout is at $10,000 - that's only 1000 clicks. So far I have been getting at least 5 clicks a day, so it would take less than a year to get your payout! Give it a try, it can't hurt!

FREE Secret Flawless Deoderant!!

Walmart has a sale on Secret Flawless Deoderant at 2 for $3.32 ($1.66 each). Time to use those $1.50 off Secret Deoderant coupons from the P&G Brandsaver flyers that came last month, or the ones you ordered online!! That makes it only 16cents each!!

Even better is if you take Walmart's flyer and go to Zellers, then price match it. With your SPC 10% discount, it only comes to $1.49. Minus the $1.50 coupon and it's FREE! You even get credited 1 penny! Of course you have to pay the tax still, which is 17 cents. AMAZING deal! I picked up 4 today, go get yours now! Also if you are at Zellers, it would be a great time to use your $2 Vaseline coupons to get the Vaseline Lotion (on sale for $2) for FREE!

The Elusive Quest for McDonald's Happy Meal Toys

McDonald's recently came out with their newest Happy Meal Toys - eight uber cute Vancouver 2010 Olympic mascot toys in various sports. They are plastic toys that move and can link up together. So far I have 5 of them (I traded in 5 toys that I didn't want for them) and I have been to about six McDonald's. I only have 2 Quatchi, 2 Miga and 1 Quatchi with Miga. No Sumi to be found! I'm determined to find the whole collection! I can't find a picture of them online, I guess it's really new still. The Happy Meal website still has Alvin toys up. I took a picture of the complete set, and I'll post it when I'm not feeling lazy haha. Anyways, you can go and buy a Happy Meal and get your own Olympic mascot toy, or just get the toy itself for about $2 and change! It beats spending $10-$40 for a plush toy that are sold in stores!

Saint John of Las Vegas

I got passed to an advanced screening again and went to see it tonight. Saint John of Las Vegas stars Steve Buscemi as an ex-gambler John who has to work with insurance-fraud investigator Virgil (Romany Malco). They have to head to Vegas to investigate an insurance claim. The story line gets a little muddled in the middle and  was a bit slow. There are a few laughs in the movie, but nothing too outstanding. Sarah Silverman plays John's girlfriend, though it was completely unbelievable how they got there. The beginning of the movie, they were just coworkers, then all of a sudden, she's all like, I love you?? Highly unlikely. Sarah Silverman is usually so funny, but her talents were wasted here. I wouldn't recommend this movie, go watch something more worthwhile!

FREE Vaseline Lotion This Week!

Zellers has Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion on sale this week for only $2. And guess what? There is a $2 off any Vaseline lotion coupon from Save.ca you can order. I only had one, but I was able to pick up my free bottle on Saturday! I tried it last night, it's pretty good! They are the 325ml bottles, and comes in scented and unscented. Hurry up and pick up you free bottle of Vaseline today! Even if you don't use it yourself, it would make a great addition to a beauty gift basket, or a donation to a women's shelter or you can give it to a friend or family member. The sale ends on Thursday!
