I have decided to give back to the Uber community with a little knowledge on how to gain some nice stuff for almost nothing. What nice stuff am I talk about?
Xbox - $40 or less
PS2 - $40 or less
GameCube - $40 or less
100s of DVDs - $3 or less
100s of CDs -$3 or less
15 Gig Apple Ipod - $80 or less
The list goes on.
Now you may be saying, "ReallyBored is Reallyfullofshit. It's probably a scam." And you're right, it is a scam. It's a scam that a company is trying to run on people, but you just have to turn it around and run it on them. And it's legal. Here is how it works.
There are a group of websites called FreeDvds.com, freevideogames.com, freecondoms.com and freegiftplanet.com. These websites have certain offers on the main page right after you join as a member. Membership is free; but I would suggest using a bullshit yahoo or hotmail e-mail account as you will get spammed to all hell.
Now every time you do an offer you will get points. Most offers range in the 200-400 point range while others are as low as 20 and as high as 1200. What you need to do is build up enough points to acquire the prizes that can be found on these sites. For example PS2 is 7150 points.
The trick is to cancel the offers as soon as you can. For example I signed up for 3 AOL accounts through the website which netted me roughly 1200 points. According to the site I had to stay a member for a week (which I did) then I canceled them. Since AOL was offering the free trial for 45 days, this was no problem. In essence I did absolutely nothing (besides dealing with the hassle of canceling the accounts) and I made enough points to get a DVD, a scanner, a tickle-me elmo, or some other such thing.
Now some of the other offers require you to spend small amounts of cash. That's where the $40 bucks come from. For example I filled out female hormone pill offer and got 280 points but I had to spend $2.00 for them to ship the free sample.
As long as you concentrate on the free trials and stay away from the costing ones you can actually get anything on that site for nothing.
Now heres some tips for the site:
-Always write down every bit of information. How do I cancel. How many days must stay a member to get points. How many days do I have to cancel. What times to call to cancel. Ect ect.
-Do a point to money ration when looking at the ones you have to pay for shipping. I never buy into anything less than 350 points per dollar. But that's just me.
-Keep a record of what days you have to cancel things and make sure you get the cancellation numbers.
Yes this might be a lot of work, but im getting a PS2 shipped (oh BTW shipping on your prizes is free) from amazon.com for the work that I did. Heres some of the shit I did for points.
Heres all the things I did and the points I got. Not all my points have yet to come in. Sometimes it takes acouple days. Those fuckers still owe me on the militarybooks.com crap.
AIU (120), AOL for Broadband (existing broadband users) (550), AOL® 9.0 Optimized (600), AutoVantage (200), Connections (300), Education Info (60), Event Privileges (200), Eversave (20), GoZing Cash Surveys (20), Jackpot (20), NetMarket (250), New York Times (600), PCDI (200), Stamps.com (560), Travelers Advantage (200), Trimlife (340), Trimlife Advanced (250), Trimlife Hormone (280), TrimLife Plus (320), Video Professor (450)
Right there is 5900+ points and I have spent a total of 11 dollars I think. Enjoy!

Yeah, thats right... it would be AWESOME to see you with tits. Why? Because that way, when I am fucking you, I would be able to fuck your tits and give you a pearl necklace when I am about to burst!

Haha! Scams in the first. I wonder if they only ship inside the US.
Plus, with all those hormone pills you can grow yourself a pair of tits!!
Man, that would be fucking AWESOME

You should get a suit with a bunch of question marks on it and get yourself a late night infomercial.

I was on freecondoms.com once and got a shit ton of condoms and spent something like 20 bucks for 300 condoms and a sample bottle of flavored lube.
Its definetly a scam but a scam that actually works for you in a good way. Check out www.gadgetmatrix.co.uk/ for getting stuff for 20 british pounds. This is a real scam but its also pretty simple to do if you get a lot of people referred.
Its up for auction on ebay for a penny and the guy gives you all the info in the auction. He even tells you not to bid. Its so he can get a lot of referrals. Which helps you get your stuff quicker.
I love these scam things that you can get to work for you. Ima try it for an MP3 Player.
