Free Money 2007 Update

Since first listing of free money from 2007 I have procured some new free money from the very generous Citibank and chase mastercards. Despite my history of cashing rebates for the credit monitoring services and cancelling before the introductory period is over, the CC companies continue to line my pockets with these offers. So naturally, i continue to cash in on them.


Free Money 2007 Vs. Time Spent

Dividends Card - $614/ 0 hours - All cash back from daily spending
Citi (Gas Rebate) - $100/ 0.5 hours - time spent filling out rebate
Mbna Rewards - $120/ 0 hours - Cash back from spending
chase identity - $20/ 0.5 hours - Filled out rebate, then cancelled
chase rewards (starbucks) - $5/ 0.1 hours - filled out short survey
sprint new service -$150/ 0.5 hours - filling out rebates
Microsoft survey Amazon GC -$200/ 1 hour - completing 2 surveys
Sprint Referral Program - $65/ 0.25 hours - talking to CSR
Chase Identity - $20/ 0.25 hours - Filled out rebate, then cancelled
Citi Identity Protector - $25 / 0.25 hours - filled out rebate

Grand Total YTD - $1319/ 3.85 hours - total time spent

The $65 comes from my sister and my fiancee signing up for sprint and using my number as the referral source. But as you can see this month i made $95 dollars in less than an hour. I have to admit that its not too bad for the month of August. This number should go up next month as i have plans to initiate my first ever AOR. For those who are not privy to the term it means "App-O-rama" and i will further elaborate on that topic this weekend.
