Tropicana Juicy Rewards is a new program that rewards you for drinking Tropicana Orange Juice.  Each carton of OJ has a unique code on it that you enter on the Juicy Rewards site.  Just one carton of OJ can save you up to $15!

Right now you can get a Free Bonus point worth up to $5 in savings!  After creating your account, click on the blue “enter codes” button on the upper right-hand side of the page, and enter code: MOTHE-RHOOD.  The code must be entered within 6 hours of creating your account.

*Update – I was flipping through my coupon inserts and alongside a Tropicana Juice coupon I found another 1 point bonus code: LA73E-CL9W4.

Did you sign up with Recycle Bank when I told you about it a few months ago?  If not, here’s a recap:

RecycleBank is a curbside pickup recycling program that lets you earn points for recycling.  The points can be redeemed for a variety of great items.  Even though the pickup program is only available in a few areas, anyone can sign up online (for free). You will get 40 Free points just for joining!

Once you’ve signed in or created an account, you can:

• Join the Ebay Green Team to earn 50 bonus points!
• Enter code: RECYCLEYOURMAGS to get 15 bonus points!

That is 65 bonus points (or 105 if you’re just now creating an account) that you can cash in for some free stuff!  Among the items that you can get for free is a coupon for a Free Bottle of Seventh Generation Dish Soap (50 points), $1/1 Powerade Coupon (50 points), $1/1 Coca- Cola Product Coupon (50 points) and many more!  Powerade and Coca-Cola products frequently go on sale for $1, so you could get them free with the $1 coupons.

I was able to get a few of those coupons when I signed up back in December and they came really quickly!  This is such an easy way to get free products!

(Thanks, For the Mommas and Organic Deals and Coupons!)

Today is the 2nd Birthday for Swagbucks.com!  To celebrate, they are rolling out a ton of new features like a site makeover and new logo.  The biggest change though is going to shock you when you open your Swag Bucks account: your Swag Bucks have been multiplied by TEN!  Go ahead, check.

Now, before you get too excited, note that they have also multiplied the cost of all the prizes by ten.  So, the $5 Amazon Gift Card that used to be 45 Swag Bucks, now costs 450.  It really has changed nothing, except the folks at Swagbucks say this “will allow us to do is to award bucks to users in ways that were not before imaginable.”  So, hopefully this change is going to benefit us?

Even with this confusing new change, I am still really excited about the birthday celebration.  They are going to be giving away a ton of Free Swag Bucks through their Blog, Twitter, and Facebook.  So, make sure you are following them so you don’t miss out!  Also, be sure to read my Top 6 Tips to Get More Swag Bucks.

All new members get 30 FREE Swag Bucks when you join, but if you enter code COUPONING101 (case sensitive) then you will an additional 30 Free Swag Bucks!  So, that is a total of 60 Free Swag Bucks to start out!  Wondering what Swag Bucks are?

Swag Bucks is a search engine powered by Google and Ask.com. Whenever you search on Swagbucks.com, you have the chance to win points (aka Swag Bucks) that you can redeem for prizes and gift cards. You can easily earn enough points to get a $5 Amazon gift card every month if you do regular searches!

To get started with your 60 Free Swagbucks, sign up HERE.

If you are loving Swagbucks as much as I am, then you are likely looking for a way to earn even more Swagbucks! I mean, the 1-2 a day I earn from searching is great, but I am always on the lookout for ways to earn even more!

If you aren’t using Swagbucks (and may I ask why not?), here is a quick recap:  Swagbucks is a search engine powered by Google and Ask.com. Whenever you search on Swagbucks, you have the chance to win points (aka Swagbucks) that you can redeem for prizes and gift cards. You can easily earn enough points to get a $5 Amazon gift card every month if you do regular searches!

Here are a few tips to help build up your Swagbucks:

1. Search on Friday. It is good to do a search every day, but Friday is Mega Swagbucks Day! That means, your chances of winning the higher value “Mega Bills” are even higher. You could win up to 50 Swagbucks in a single search!

2. Install the Toolbar. The Swagbucks toolbar is just like a Yahoo or Google toolbar, and goes at the top of your browser. The toolbar makes it more convenient to seach, eliminating your need to visit the Swagbucks website. You will also occasionally get Free Swagbuck Codes via the toolbar! Check the little message icon on the toolbar daily because the Free Codes are usually only good for a few hours.

3. Tell your Friends. If you are loving Swagbucks, then you are probably telling your friends already, so why not get some Free Swagbucks for it? Go to the Swagbucks home page and click “Promote” at the top. You have the option to email your friends, post a banner or widget on your website, or connect with your Facebook account. When your friend signs up using your unique referral link, you will earn a Swagbuck each time they win a Swagbuck.

4. Modify your Search. If I do a search and don’t win a Swagbuck, I will change my search term slightly to see if I win. Example: I search for “Coupons” and win nothing, so I add the word “Printable” to make it “Printable Coupons” or “Coupons Printable” (either way) and search again. For some reason, I usually win a Swagbuck by doing this!

5. Search for Images or Video. This works about the same as modifying your search (above). After you search “Printable Coupons” and don’t win, click on “Images” or “Video” at the top of the page to see if you can win a Swagbuck that way.

6. Search Daily. This is the most obvious, yet it is the one I always forget!  Searching daily builds Swagbucks faster than any other method. Those 1-2 Swagbucks per day add up quickly! If you can’t think of anything to search for, search for something you already know. For example, instead of typing “Couponing101.com” in your address bar to come to my site, you could type it in on Swagbucks. You will still get to my site, just with a small detour and a chance to win a Swagbuck!

I hope some of these tips will help you earn more Swagbucks! Just out of curiosity, what is your favorite prize on Swagbucks?

It is definitely worth the couple of minutes it takes to register!

I have been a member of My Coke Rewards for a looong time.  I’ve received tons of free stuff too: Free Subscription to my husbands favorite magazine and Free Powerade are what I usually get with my points.  What’s funny is – we don’t even drink soda!  I collect the points from random free point offers, points from all the Free Powerade deals in the past, friends and family saving their coke tops for me, and even finding coke tops on the ground while out for walks!  Three points here and there really do add up!  I can imagine they would add up even faster for Coke drinkers!

My Coke Rewards is just like any other reward program.  Earn points and redeem them for cool stuff.  Prizes include Gift Cards, Free Photo Prints, Free Cokes/Powerade/Minute Maid, Coca-Cola Merchandise, and more.  You earn 3 points for each code from 20 oz or 2 liter Coca-Cola products, and 10 points for 12 packs.  Enter the codes you find in the “Enter Your Code” box on the My Coke Rewards homepage and the points will be added to your account.

Right now, you can get 25 FREE points!  Log in or sign up at My Coke Rewards and click on the “Pick up Points” tab in the upper left-hand corner.  Look for the T.G.I. Fridays offer and click on “Sign up and Get Points.”  You will then be redirected to the T.G.I. Fridays website to sign up for the Give Me More Stripes program.  Immediately after signing up (it’s free and really quick by the way), you will receive a confirmation email that contains your Coke Rewards Code.  Copy the code into your account, and voila!  25 Free Points! *Update – this offer is no longer available.

Now, you can save the points, of course, but if you’re looking for instant gratification you can redeem them right away for a free beverage!  The following items are just 24 points each:

• Coca-Cola 20 oz Bottle
• Dasani Essence 18.5 oz Bottle
• Powerade 32 oz Bottle
• Minute Maid 20 oz Bottle

Just select the reward you would like and you will receive a coupon for your free beverage in 3 – 5 weeks!  Enjoy!

Thanks Money Saving Methods!

First of all, if you haven’t been using Swagbucks, you are truly missing out!  Swagbucks is a search engine powered by Google and Ask.com.  You use it just like any other search engine, the only difference is – you get Free Stuff!

Every time you search on Swagbucks you can potentially win swagbucks!  Swagbucks are like points which can be redeemed for prizes, gift cards, and even CASH (via Paypal)!  I prefer to redeem my swagbucks for Amazon gift cards.  A $5 Amazon gift card is just 45 swagbucks.  If you search the web as much as I do, then 45 swagbucks can be earned very quickly.  You will also get 3 swagbucks automatically when you sign up!

You can also refer your friends!  Every time they earn a swagbuck, you do too!  Swagbucks gives you a unique link to use, then you email, Facebook, or Tweet all your friends to tell them about Swagbucks!  You can win up to 100 Swagbucks for each friend you refer!

Another way to get swagbucks is to find Swag Codes!  When you find a Swag Code you copy the code and paste it in the Swag Code box on your homepage.  I am a fan of Swagbucks on Facebook, follow them on Twitter, and read their Blog – I have received Swag Codes in all three places.

The new Toolbar is also a source of Swag Codes!  Every day in September, you will get a free Swagbuck if you have the Swagbucks Toolbar!  So, if you join today (9/12) you will get 19 Swagbucks (1 per day) this month!  That is just for downloading the toolbar.  You can still win more Swagbucks through search and referrals.

Swagbucks is completely FREE to use, and you do not have to enter any credit card information!  If you want to win free prizes, gift cards, or cash for your online searches, sign up for Swagbucks HERE.

Kraft First Taste is another program that offers free products and coupons.  I have been a member for a few months now, and I estimate that I get a free product offer about once a month.  Just the other day I received my email newsletter telling me about new Digiorno Flatbread Melts.  So, I logged in to see if there was an offer waiting for me.  There was!  They are going to mail me a coupon to try the new Flatbread Melts for free, plus I got to share the offer with 10 friends via email!

Other offers I’ve received are Free Jello Singles, Oreo Mini Cakesters, and Oscar Mayer Deli Creations!  The offers have either come as a free product or a free coupon in the mail.  Once you try the products, you log in and answer a quick survey about it.  That’s it!  There is nothing else you have to do!

Do you like telling others about products that you’ve tried?  Do you like trying those products for free?  If you do, then you will love BzzAgent!

BzzAgent is a Word of Mouth Marketing Network.  You get to try new products (for free!) and spread the word – create “buzz” – about them!  You also get to share your opinions and influence companies and brands.

It is completely free to join!  Once you join you are not obligated to do anything, but trust me, you will want to!  You will have a lot of opportunities to try new products, take surveys, and discover new sites.  Everything is voluntary though.  You do not get paid, but the freebies are pretty cool!  For example, this year so far I have received Childrens Claritin, coupons for free entree’s at Chilis, Max Factor Makeup, and Clean & Clear Face Wash products.  All the products I received were full size, and a couple packages included multiple products!  All of them came with coupons for me plus some to share with friends.

Once you receive the products or coupons you try them out then share your opinion with others.  Think your friend would love the Clean & Clear makeup remover you got to try?  Tell her about it and share one of the provided samples or coupons with her.  After you do, submit a Bzz report online describing what was said and how your friend reacted.  The Bzz Reports are very important and they read every one!

The more stuff you do on Bzz, the higher status you have.  The higher your status, the earlier you get Campaign invites!  It is really so much fun trying new products and getting to share them with others!

Just remember that while the freebies and coupons are great, it is important that you share them as intended and that you give your honest opinion once you’ve tried them.

Would you like to be a BzzAgent?  Sign up HERE!
