sacrilicious13Hi friendslist! I got an awesome email today, and I thought I'd share it with everyone. I'm a member of a website where I get paid to make little 1-3 minute product reviews. They used to pay in Amazon giftcards, but now they're paying in Paypal. Believe me when I say that they pay WELL. I've gotten $375 in Amazon giftcards so far, and I should be getting $50 in my Paypal account in the next few days.
The way this works is you do any product that is available nationally in the US. I really don't know why anyone in Canada couldn't do it as well. Tons of American products are available in Canada, so just pick some of that stuff and put a fake American address in your profile. They never mail you anything, so whether the address is legit or not is pretty unimportant.
You need to have either a video camera or a digital camera that will let you take videos with sound that are at least one minute long. I use my digital camera, and I've never had any problems with it. You also have to show your face on camera and talk for a minute or two about how great or crappy the product is. You can do anything - food, makeup, electronics equiptment. For the last promotion which was $10 for each video with a max of 5, I literally went to my pantry, grabbed five things, and made the videos.
After you've done the videos, you upload them to the site, and they show up as "pending" in your account. It usually takes about 4-5 days for them to be approved. After they're approved it takes another 3-4 days for them to send you the payment. They ALWAYS pay. I've had about thee videos rejected by them. Two were because the video was too dark, and the other one was too short. All I did was reshoot them, upload the new vids, and those were accepted just fine.
If people are curious about what I've managed to get because of this website

And that is what $375 from Amazon for veeeeeery little work will get you.
I finally convinced my Mom to get over her camera shyness and do this. She's gotten $100 in Amazon so far and she ordered a candy thermometer and a sweet wafflemaker. Belgian waffles for breakfast tomorrow!
If anyone is interested in signing up, and I cannot recommend this enough - either leave your email here, IM me at Architects Eyes, or drop me an email at quafflesandcorsets AT yahoo DOT com and I'll send you the info. It's about as close to free money as you can get, and it's not a scam. Believe me, I've signed up for enough sites over the years that never paid out. This one is 100% legit.
PS - I get $5 for each person who signs up and puts my username "technopagan7" as a referral. So free stuff for everyone! Then you all can pimp it out to your friends. It's the circle of pimping!
I know I'm planning on saving this month's payout to buy Supernatural in September!
