In honor of the Memorial Day weekend coming up and because I think you’re awesome –  I thought it would be fun to hold an Amazon gift card giveaway!

I’m actually giving away FIVE $10 Amazon gift cards that I have earned with my Swag Bucks – that’s how much I like you guys.

And since I want you to have as much fun earning FREE gift cards from Swagbucks as I do – there is only ONE method of entry:

Here’s how to enter:

You have ONE possible method of entry:

• Sign up for Swagbucks and leave a comment below letting me know that you did.  If you are already a Swagbucks member, simply leave a comment letting me know.

New members can enter code CHACHING70 when you complete your profile to start off with 100 FREE Swag Bucks. (Just look for the text that reads “I have a sign up code”.)

Welcome to Day 18 of our 31 Days to Earn Extra Cash Online series!  Check out the rest of the series here.

Today’s site: Nielsen Home Scan Consumer Panel (now accepting applicants)

How to Earn: 

As a panel member, the National Consumer Panel will provide you with a hand-held scanner. Every time you or members of your household shop, you’ll use the scanner to scan the barcodes on all of your purchases.  No landline required.

Then, once a week, you’ll send them your purchase information.  By doing so, you will earn points as well as entries into the Monthly and Quarterly Sweepstakes where you can win a $500 American Express Rewards Card.

What You Can Earn: 

Earn points, which are redeemable for electronics, household items, jewelry, toys, gift cards, and more.

Tips:

• We actually received a scanner a while back and ended up sending it back.   We had just moved and I didn’t feel I had the time to devote to it at that time.  The nice part is that it was easy to send back and Nielsen paid the return shipping.

Click here to apply for Nielsen Home Scan.
