SuperPoints -- Another Easy Way to Win Free Prizes!

If you're looking for an easy way to earn more free rewards online, check out the SuperPoints Network. The site has actually been around for several years -- and in the past, offered rewards for things such as searching and shopping. Then the site took a hiatus last year and relaunched with different features.

For a limited-time only, you can join SuperPoints for FREE! That's right, it's free to join and free to use. And it's VERY easy to win points that you can then trade in for rewards. Recently, the site added many prizes to its rewards catalog -- from gift cards to popular electronics.

You earn points by:

• clicking a button and getting 0-300 points on each click
• watching short videos for 1-5 point(s) each
  
• completing special offers for mega points
• completing surveys for additional points

Join here.

Keep in mind:

• The site is adding more ways to earn SOON -- so get in now while it's still free -- that's a limited-time offer!
• The site matches your friends' button wins -- with NO cap! So, refer some of your friends to join, too! Similar to the search and win sites like iRazoo, you'll earn more if you have active referrals under you.
  
• You can increase the number of button clicks you get by increasing your membership level (easy and free to do; just click the link to the left of the button once you're on the site).
• You must live in the US, CA or UK to be a member of the site.

Win Free AmazonGift Cards on iRazoo!

The search and win site iRazoo recently instituted a new point policy -- making it easier to win! Use iRazoo just like you use non-win search engines like Google and Bing. Each search will give you a random chance to win varied points -- from 10-100. And you can win between 5-10 times during the day!

Once you reach 3000 points, you can cash out to receive a $5 Amazon gift card -- totally free! Within one to four weeks of cashing out, you'll receive your gift card code and can add it to your Amazon account balance. Amazon codes never expire -- and are stackable! You can also exchange your iRazoo points for other exciting prizes such as mp3 players, cameras, memory sticks and video game systems -- but the Amazon prize is the BEST bang for your buck.

The key to these sites is to join, get comfortable with how things work and then get some of your friends in the United States, Canada and United Kingdom to join under you as well. You will automatically earn matching points each time your friend earns points. For example, if your friend wins 20 points while searching, you will also get 20 points added to your account as well -- up to a cap of 3000 points per friend.

iRazoo recently added more chances to earn by completing special offers. To learn more, just click on the EARN POINTS tab at the top of the home page and then click on OFFERS. Just by clicking that link, you'll receive 5 points daily! And there are many videos to watch and other offers to add to your tally.



It's free to register and free to play -- so don't delay! Register here and start winning today -- you'll even get 50 points to start you off just for joining!

BONUS TREASURE CODE

Bonus codes are given out frequently via iRazoo's Facebook and Twitter accounts. After you've registered via the link above, go to the site's top menu bar, click on EARN POINTS and drop down to TREASURE CODES. Add the following codes in the field before their expiration times for easy additional points! Codes are case-sensitive -- so it's best to copy and paste!

Win Free Money from Instant Cash Sweepstakes!

Looking for an EASY way to build your PayPal account? Luckily there is a site where you can actually earn quick money JUST for answering 3- to 5-question surveys -- Instant Cash Sweepstakes. After you win enough money (just $2 or more), you simply cash out and the money is sent directly to your PayPal account within HOURS!

You can even write surveys -- and each month, the writer of the survey rated the best wins $100! And to top that, there is a daily $50 drawing -- and you gain entries ("lottery tickets") each time you complete or write a survey! You can win multiple times -- and EntertainmentBlogger is living proof -- winning the daily prize three times!

One lucky registered user won $1099 in the site's Tax Cut Sweepstakes in 2009! And there's always something new at ICS. Last fall, the site also implemented a $2 drawing held EVERY four hours. But even with ongoing changes, the site remains free to register -- and free to use!

A Final Contest -- Farewell to Twitter, The Blog

JUNE 30 UPDATE: THE CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. Winner was selected, notified and announced on July 1 -- see here.

The Farewell

Thanks to all of you who have followed me here on the blog and on Twitter @Entertainment2u. It's been a pleasure keeping you updated on the latest movies, television, music, online and other entertainment news over the past couple of years. I started all of this back in March 2009 as a hobby -- and it quickly became a passion. But due to a real full-time job and mounting pressures on my time, I can no longer do it all!

You may have seen hints that this was coming -- as my movie reviews ended earlier this year, the weekly music blog posts become monthly, etc. Well, at the end of this month, I'll be ending the Twitter entertainment feed and the blog altogether. And what better way to celebrate this milestone and to thank you for all your support by holding a farewell contest!

One lucky follower will win a prize package with an ARV of $164 -- an Apple iPod Nano 8 GB Graphite (6th generation; newest model; ARV of $149.00) and one Apple iTunes gift card in the amount of $15 (ARV of $15.00).
