Free Samples

When we first started our savings journey, I used to laugh at free sample offers. I mean, come on, you’d get some minuscule amount of a product to try. Big deal.

Well, it is a big deal when you sign up for them consistently and they pop up in your mailbox daily. Even the smallest sample saves you 1 dose/serving. Not to mention that many of the samples are larger sizes than that. Besides, it’s fun to get stuff other than bills in your mailbox!

I made a post about how you can save around $240 a year with free samples!! Check it out HERE

Surveys

We also signed up for some survey companies. I figured I might be able to earn a little extra money by doing them. Well, I was right.
I set up a special email address for the survey companies I signed up with. This way, my main mailbox won’t get inundated with survey opportunities and updates.
My favorite survey companies are MySurvey, InBox Dollars and Send Earnings.

Swagbucks.com

Basically, Swagbucks is a search engine that rewards you with Swagbucks periodically when you search. These Swagbucks will add up and then you can redeem them for awesome prizes and gift cards.

We have been getting the Amazon gift cards and using them for some of our non-perishable needs – (more cash left in our pockets). This will help us to continue to cut our monthly grocery out of pocket expenses!
