Earn Money Online
There are many ways to earn money online – surveys, reading e-mails, surfing the internet, shopping, and so on and so forth. But, often you sign up and never “see the money”. Below are my favorite sites to make money online. I’ve personally tried each of them out and received a payment from each one listed.
DealsNCash
DealsNCash and Hits4Pay are two of my favorite money making sites. I get about 1 e-mail a day and all I have to do is click on the link to make a little money. On top of that, I make a bit extra for every friend I refer who clicks on a link from their e-mail. The sites have to stay up for so long, so I often put them in the background while I read my e-mails or surf the net.

MyPoints
MyPoints is another one of my favorite sites. They send you e-mails periodically, which you simply click to earn points. Points can be redeemed for gift cards. I use this program to save money on Christmas. I click e-mails throughout the year, then near the end of November I redeem them for gift cards which I either give as gifts or use to purchase gifts. You can also get gift cards for places you shop every day like Starbucks, BP, Target, and many more.
Methods to Earn: Shopping Online, Grocery Coupon Redemption, Survey’s, Free Trials, Registering w/ Websites, Reviews, and More

Swag Bucks
If you search the Internet a lot, like me, then Swag Bucks is for you. You can add Swag Bucks to your Internet Explorer or FoxFire and use it to search. You get points for searching, which you can trade for gift cards, electronics, or just about anything you’d like. The average searcher earns 1 $5 gift card a month. It’s not a lot, but it is free gift cards!
Methods to Earn: Searching the Internet, Surveys, Registering w/ Websites, Free Trials, Trade-In Merchandise, Polls, Commenting, Shopping Online
Reward: Swag Bucks (points)
Payment Schedule: By Request
Minimum Balance for Payment: Varies

I have used the MyPoints site for several years, it takes a long time to acculumate the points if you do not buy on the internet, but I had enough points this year to get a $50 card from KMart which I used on Black Friday we were able to get about 75.00 worth of toys. So for a non-working grandma that was a good deal.
I’ve been using mypoints for years…I don’t do much shopping online, but at the end of the year I turn all my points in and get nearly 200.00 in gift cards. I could earn more if I shopped online, but this is fine the way it is….A little bit of gift cards goes a long way just for doing nothing… Can’t beat that!
Very true, April!
I really like Inbox Dollars. I joined just over a month ago and already have $23 in my account! Mypoints is great too, I’ve been a member of it for several years.
However, I’m disappointed with DealsNCash. When you sign up, it says you get 2-5 cents for each e-mail you read and 1-2 cents for each email your referrals read. So far, I’ve read over 125 and my referral around 60. According to my account, I’m only getting credited 1 cent per email. It will sure take a lot longer to hit the $30 payout mark at this rate! I sent an email to customer service over a week ago to question this, but no response.
