Free Magazines from AdPerk

AdPerk is a service where you can earn credits towards free magazines when you watch short commercial videos. After each video there is a captcha you need to enter within a time limit (30 seconds I think) to get credit. It’s a really easy to way to get free legitimate subscriptions. I currently am reading Popular Science, Good Housekeeping, and Ode thanks to Adperk.

The current offers are a subscription to Parenting, Ode, and Field & Stream. Their queue of potential offers includes Redbook, Good Housekeeping, Popular Science, Cosmopolitan, and several others.

Amazon.com Prime 3-Month Trial

Shadowe2001 on the Slickdeals forum found a way to get Amazon.com Prime for 3 months. Add $100 of qualifying textbooks into your cart and you will be offered a trial membership of Prime for three months. Be sure to go into your account and turn off the automatic renewal or you’ll be billed in three months for the service.

You will need a non-registered email address, a non-registered credit card, and $100 of textbooks in your cart to qualify. You can active Amazon.com Prime and then not purchase the books. Read the thread for more details.

Bank Deals Blog

The guy(s)/gal(s) over at Bank Deals Blog must keep themselves quite busy every day updating all the bank deals out there. Considering the thousands of banks and credit unions out there, it’s amazing they’re able to keep up and publish even a fraction of the news out there. That being said, hardly a day goes by that I don’t check their site to see what offers are floating around and whether they apply to me. If you’re looking to squeeze a couple percent more out of your savings accounts or CDs, I recommend giving that blog a look every once and a while to see if a bank local to you, or one you can get an account at, has a sweet offering available.

Black Friday Resources

Thanksgiving is one week away and you have some preparing to do! Black Friday is the day that retailers slash prices on a few items to get folks into the store and the first day the retailers go “black” on their accounting books, when they turn profitable for the holiday season. Black Friday’s difficult to plan for if you are sorting through circulars the night before with a belly full of turkey and your bed calling your name. So, that’s why taking advantage of sites like BlackFriday.net is so valuable because they are one of the many sites that leak these circulars way before the Thanksgiving weekend.

If that site doesn’t have what you desire, just do a search for Black Friday 2007 with the store’s name and you’re bound to find a site with the circular.
