4 Ways to Win Money for Free

Complete the Surveys on Store Receipts
One of the simplest ways you can win money is by paying more attention to your store receipts. There are numerous chances to win money during a simple shopping trip. Many retail stores offer the opportunity to win money by simply taking a survey. If you have been to grocery, pharmacy, or even clothing outlets, there is usually a 1-800 number printed on the receipt given with your purchase. This number is provided so that you can call and complete a survey over the telephone.

The surveys are computer generated. Most of these surveys include questions about your recent shopping experiences at that particular retail store. The surveys may also include questions about your shopping habits and satisfactory levels with certain products and services offered at the store. By completing these surveys, you are automatically entered into a drawing for the chance to win money. The prize money offered for this type of opportunity seems to be between $2,000 and $10,000.

Listen to the Radio
Many radio stations give out more valuable prizes than music CDs, concerts tickets and T-Shirts. If you enjoy listening to radio programs, there are dozens of ways to win money for free with this medium of entertainment. This is a great way to win money without having to spend your own cash first. There are usually simple requirements for a chance at winning money from radio stations. These requirements may include calling at a specific time, playing a game chosen for the contest or correctly answering a few questions.

The money you can win from radio stations are anywhere from $100 to one million dollars. It all depends on the radio program that you are listening to. Some radio stations give out a certain amount of money on a daily basis. Since it is frequent, this contest doesn't expire and tends to be part of the radio station's branding of a particular program. Morning radio shows and programs that take place in the daytime have become well-known for giving away money.

I always forget to follow through with the cash register receipts. Thanks for the reminder!

I agree on radio contests. When we run them, we get a lot of calls, but interestingly not when the contest first begins and people still aren't up to speed on it. That's probably the best time to call. It's a great way to get stuff at the cost of only a local telephone call. Also, keep in mind the competition will be weaker at small radio stations as opposed to big city stations.

Can't win if we don't try, huh?!

The suggestion to look at your store receipts is well taken. I have done several surveys after shopping certain stores. Perhaps I will win a gift card one of these days :-)
