Free TV! Free LCD! FREE! Interested Yet?
I realize this sounds like spam or some infomercial, so if you're not interested just skip this post entirely.
There's a web site giving away
free flat screen TVs.
What's the catch? You have to sign up for one offer from one of their affiliates and get 8 friends to sign up as well. The company behind this gets paid for referrals and apparently gets paid enough to send you a TV and still make a profit while letting you do all the work of spreading the word (as I'm doing here). You can cancel the offer during the trial period and pay nothing.
The
company checks out and the affiliates are not your local late-night as-seen-on-tv fare. They're companies like
GM,
eBay,
AOL.
Here's what you need to do:
- Use Internet Explorer (other browsers not supported) and follow this link and sign up. This link is specific to me, so I get credit for the referral.
- Sign in with an email address and mailing address. There are reports that HotMail and MSN accounts cannot receive the verification email and might not be counted.
- Skip the marketing surveys (or take them if you like - they're optional).
- Sign up with one of the partners and complete the offer agreement. Most of these will require a credit card. There are some reports of success without one, but no guarantees. The card won't be charged if you cancel during the free period. I chose the top AOL offer with music.
- Refer 8 of your friends and have them complete offers to get your free TV.
Check back by logging into your
freeflatscreens.com account to see if you have credit for your offer. It may take a day or two, depending on which offer you chose. Then you should call and cancel your offer and never be charged. You can only sign up once per address and if you try to cheat you may get all your entries invalidated.
There's a similar free iPod offer by the same company if you're interested in that. That was the original offer. For the TV offer, you can pick from LCD monitors, LCD TV/monitor,
Sony Wega 27" flatscreen, 24" TV with DVD and VCR. All of these sell for $350-400.
Before signing up (especially if you're still skeptical) you might want to read more info at
freeipodguide.com. This site speaks about the iPod offer, but the same tips apply. Just be sure to use
my link when signing up! And
let me know if you do.
If you sign up using my link, you can come over and watch Tivo or play Xbox on the new Sony Wega 27" flatscreen!
