Gifthulk

So, I'm trying out a new moneymaking app called Gifthulk, and it definitely gets points for creativity.  While I've become so accustomed to carting around my cell phone for Shop Kick and Check Points (to the point that my husband asks if my shop kick check in worked so we can leave Target before exiting the store) it's nice to have some web-based earning opportunities too.  I've been using Listia quite a bit to bid on auctions from other users, and have gotten some neat items from them.  However, the freedom to get anything you want with a gift card to a store like Target or to amazon.com is really nice as well.

One of the money making opportunities inside the app is actually the generation of this blog post - convenient, since this blog is still floating around from helping out during Simple Saving Savvy's vacation before she stopped her match up service.  By telling you, my readers, a little about the app, I'll receive 1000 credits - equivalent to $1.00.  Not bad for a few moments of my time!

In addition to the standard video watching, survey taking, and friend inviting, Gifthulk offers some cute games and code inputting.  If this becomes more of a habit, I will probably pick up Swagbucks, which seems as though it would pair nicely with this site.

Since Gifthulk seems to offer plenty of opportunities for earning each day, this will likely become part of my regimen.  Between the various apps, Christmas should be extra easy this year!

Neosporin Mail-in-Rebate Moneymakers ending 1/13/2013

Neosporin Essentials:
Step 1: Go to Neosporin's website to print a $3/1 Neosporin Essentials product coupon.

Step 2: Use $1 off Neosporin Essentials Trial Pack coupon from Walgreens January coupon booklet

Step 3: Go to Healthy Essentials to print a Mail in Rebate for Neosporin Essentials Trial Pack (up to $13.99).

Total out of pocket: $8.99
Total return: $8.99 - $13.99 depending on mail in rebate ruling regarding coupon use

Think you'll want more?  Print two of the $3/1 Neosporin Essentials product coupons (or a $2/1 Neosporin product from either of those sites if only one available) and one Free Neosporin Essentials wash WYB two Essentials coupon.  Use the  $2 store coupon from the Walgreens January booklet .  Get two of the trial packs and one wash at Walgreens for $3.99 after mail in rebate.

Neosporin + Pain Relief:
Step 1: If you aren't already a member of ibotta, sign up here using my referral link - that way you'll get $5 after you complete your first deal and I will get $1!  Download the app onto your smartphone.

Step 2: Go to Neosporin's website to print a $2/1 Neosporin product coupon.

Step 3: Clip $2/1 Neosporin product coupon and $0.50/1 Band-aid product coupons from 1/6/2013 SS "Healthy Essentials".

Step 4: Clip $0.50/1 Neosporin antibiotic item, $0.50/1 6-ct. or larger Band-Aid adhesive bandages = from 1/6/13 Target coupon insert

Step 5: Buy two Neosporin + Pain relief ointments ($4.19 each) and one sheer Bandaids ($1.97 each) = $10.35 total.

Step 6: Complete 3 brief ibotta tasks and scan receipt for $1.00 credit from the Neosporin (takes about 5 minutes total including the scanning).  You will also receive your $5 when your receipt is verified if this was your first ibotta deal!  (Took about an hour for me earlier today.)

Step 7: Go to Healthy Essentials to print a Mail in Rebate for Neosporin  ($5 back when you buy $10 worth of product).

Total out of pocket: $4.85
Total return: $6 ($5 from mail in rebate, $1 from ibotta)



Target - Vitamin Water

Vitamin Water 6 packs were on sale at Target for $3.99.  Add a $1.00 ibotta refund and that's $0.50 per bottle ($0.465 each if using Target card)!  Their weekly ad ends Saturday so this is probably the last day for that particular offer.

While at the store we also got walk-in points for Shopkick and a few scans...have redeemed two $2 Target gift cards so far and now have enough for a $5 one for next trip.

Finally, we scanned a couple of items with CheckIn for coins and points towards an Amazon gift card.

It was too cold to take the baby for a walk outside, and this was a lot more profitable and just as much exercise - we wandered the aisles for about an hour finding many clearance deals and everything on our shopping list.  Good times!!
