Lately I’ve seen all these tips on TV about ways to save money. Has this become a new fad? I’ve been saving money for years, in fact my family has made saving money fun, and one of the best ways to save money and still enjoy some of the best things in life is to use free gift cards you can get online. When I started looking for free gift cards from regular department stores, one of my first questions was; do these really exist? Now I only know where to go and what type of card to look for, or how to get the card I want, but I also think that people who have never looked for this type of gift card before, have the same doubts and questions that I had.
I know it might be hard to believe, but there really are some great free gift cards out there and they really are the real deal. They are cards offered by the corporation itself in exchange for your participation. So, it’s a way for the company to say “Thank you for participating.” But what do you have to participate in? It really is quite simple, all you have to do is answer a few questions and fill out an application, with the most correct answer you can find.
These are not personal questions but marketing questions. You may be asked about your customer service, or about a certain product or store, and after you answer, you’ll earn points that can be put towards a gift card or the gift card will be offered to you. Large public corporations that have retail stores have found that asking marketing questions online is the best way to get honest answers from the public. No one wants to answer marketing questions in the store, but they often don’t care when they’re home and comfortable. It’s even something to keep you active and helps you avoid “brain-dead” activities like watching TV.
Now you just have to engage a little bit, use a valid email address, and you’re on your way to free gift cards for anything from dinner at a restaurant to a $500 or $1000 gift card to Target, or for your store in a mall. like Sears.
