Did you all miss me terribly yesterday? No? I thought that everyone's lives would still go on even if I didn't post, so yesterday I took the day off and took a mini road trip with my family to Pittsburgh to shop at Ikea and Half Price Books.

Today, I am back on track and checking out a "get paid to" site: Cash Crate.

What I like about Cash Crate is the low minimum payout of $10. Cash Crate also has pages of offers that can be completed without the use of a credit card or signing up for free trials. I'm not organized to do the free trials yet. I'd probably forget to cancel them and end up costing myself a fortune. The goal here is to MAKE money.

What I don't like about Cash Crate is the amount a scams disguised as "surveys". I consider myself a fairly intelligent person and know that no one in their right mind is going to send me a $100 gift card for telling them what I like better: Popeyes or KFC. But, I found myself clicking and entering my information on several sites like this anyway, with the goal of reaching the minimum payout of $10 today.

I've made about $7.75 so far without much actual effort, but it did try my patience. I don't really enjoy this type of program, but $10 is $10. And there are enough free offers there that I could probably go back to Cash Crate everyday for at least a week and make $10 or more everyday depending on my patience level.

I will go back to Cash Crate later today and I won't stop until I reach my $10 goal. But, I can't sit there and do it all in one shot. Just too tedious.

I recommend giving Cash Crate a try, but just know in advance that though it is a legitimate program and they will pay you, you will by no means be entertained.
