what it is?
inboxdollars is basically an advertisement service. they send advertisements via email and you get paid $.01 or $.02 for clicking to confirm you've read the email.
how does it work for me?
each morning, after i've gotten through my swagbucks routine, i click on my inboxdollars toolbar where it tells me how many unread emails i have. rather than reading them when they come to my actual email inbox, i go directly to my inbox on their site. by doing this, i only check those emails once a day and it takes about 10 seconds to click through them all. i usually receive between 4-5 per day.
these emails are basically spam and i've become numb to subliminal messaging. however, i've never received any actual spam because inboxdollars doesn't share my email. i only receive emails directly from inboxdollars and i simply delete them on the spot.
they also require that you earn $30 before "cashing in."
where's the proof?
while this is considerably slower-going than swagbucks, i still find it to be an easy and fun way to earn a little extra cash. since january of 2010 i've earned $55.24. because of the $30 rule, i've only cashed one check for $33.74 and have $21.50 in my account. i roughly spend a total of one hour on this throughout the year.

Fun series lisagrace! I have never heard of inbox dollars, but I signed up through your referral! :) One question, do you use a separate email for deal stuff? I feel like I need a different email to keep stuff from clogging up my main email.
ReplyDeleteI signed up Lisagrace. I agree with the McCains-I hope it doesn't clog up my email account. One the plus side of things I have $5.50 in my account already and 90 points on swagbucks.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of inbox dollars! Where do you find things like this? Money saving blogs you follow? :) Love you!
ReplyDeleteJust realized I was supposed to leave a separate comment for signing up, so here it is! :)
ReplyDeleteI'll be honest...this doesn't sound like it's worth the time to me. But my time is precious and short these days...I'm afraid I would just get a bunch of emails and never open them up. But I'm excited about swagbucks. :)
