Free...?

Well yesterday I was bored… okay, really procrastinating doing the bills which I still have to finish Laughing
and decided to browse the net. I decided to look at ereader updates.
Specifically the creation of the product I think should be made(see
previous lengthy posts on this subject). It sounds like its coming,
but its not here yet. Laughing
But it also sounds like they’re going to be REALLY expensive so most
likely not something I can get right away anyhow. And truly, I really
do love my pda. Love it. Sooooo, why was I looking? Didn’t want to
do the bills, remember. Wink

Well, I was doing my browsing and came across a site that said I could get a free kindle.

Surprised

hmmmm I thought, what’s the catch?

I read a little further and it said I had to sign up for 2 of their programs.

hmmmm I thought, annoying… but a Kindle??? hmmmm, okay I’ll take a peek.

So I do, and decided it wouldn’t be so bad signing up(they have tons
to pick from like credit cards to movie programs)… a credit card is no
big deal to me… use it once get rid of it. I’m not worried there, done
that tons of times before and I never had the prospect of getting a
KINDLE for doing itCool.
And then another program was Netflix which I was already thinking of
trying out because I need a movie called Dumb and Dumber for research
on my ms where I need to quote a few lines and our movie store doesn’t
have it and really their selection is small… so I’d already been
considering this. So I thought, why not? You’ll get a kindle…. A KINDLE!

So I signed up.

Except…

(knew that was coming didn’t you?) Except its NOT just signing up for 2 programs... you have to give them 6 referrals!!!!! And the referrals have to sign up for two things too.Tongue out

Yeah, I’m disappointed. Irked and kicking myself in the butt for
being suckered in.(Don’t have a pan head hitting smilie cause if I did,
this is where I’d insert it!) I would love to have that kindle. I
knew it was too good to be true. KNEW IT. But I wanted that Kindle
for free. *sigh*

Don’t suppose any of you out there want to be a referral? Smile You could get a free kindle!

No, I’m not above sending out the word to see if anyone else can be enticed… with cyber chocolate Wink maybe a yummy chocolate cake too? All yours! Smile Just click on this link http://www.giftconga.com/?xrid=896871 to give me credit and work on getting your own FREE KINDLE! You know you want to.

Well, okay, I hope at least 6 of you want to. Smile

Now to go finish those silly bills….

Oooops!

Gosh, Cole ..... there's always a catch  ..... bummer that this one wasn't so upfront about it  

 

Isn't this like pyramid marketing? .... isn't that illegal?  ... if it isn't it should be  .... yes, customers should be rewarded for passing referrals that gain a sale, but it shouldn't be a demand .... doesn't bode well with me  Yell

 

wonder how many young people got sucked up in that one?

 

so .... see what happens when you procrastinate on paying your bills?  ...... tsk, tsk  ..... oops, I better not say another word  Sealed    ... I still have to pay our bills!  Surprised

 

Good luck with the referrals!

What?

What? Not everyone is jumping at this great opportunity??? I don't understand? I thought I'd have six people lined up within 30 minutes of posting! Tongue out

 

Surprised No?  Frenchie, you are really saying NO?????  Yeah, I think that's what you're saying.  Wink

 

LOL, Katherine... it is a scam of sorts Tongue out I didn't mind annoying myself, or rather decided I didn't mind it if I was going to get a FREE KINDLE, but when they asked me to annoy others... Tongue out

 

I can't help but laugh and shake my head at myself Cora... I mean I KNEW there had to be a catch. But... Tongue out *sigh* Smile

 

Have a good one everyone!
