shopping, family, jingit earn it

About a month ago, a couponing blogger was talking about this new thing called Jingit. What this is, is that you watch a video, or complete a very short survery (does not take more than a minute to do this) and you earn actual cash into your Jingit account. This isnt those 'chump change' sites where it takes forever to earn a few cents. to start, they give you a weekly limit of $5. On top of that, Jingit has their own Visa Debit card (for 13 and older). Normally the site charges $10 to get this card. It took me about 7 business days to get it. But, Jingit has been running a promotion to pay just $2 for the card (you can use your new earnings to pay for it, too...super easy) Once you get your card, you'll need to activate it. There are NO FEES attached to this card just to use it as a normal debit card in stores or online. If you want to get cash back or use it at an ATM some fees may apply. Youll get this info with your new card.
I, however just use it online. My first purchase was for Samaritan's Purse "Operation Christmas Child" (The charity where you fill a shoebox of small age appropriate toys, etc and it is distributed to kids in war torn countries) I paid the $7 shipping online with my Jingit card with no problems whatsoever) I also get to track my box to see where it goes! My second purchase was for a sweater that retailed for about $30 but I found it online for just $2.99 and FREE shipping! I again had no problems using this card. I think that Jingit is more geared at the teens and 20s age groups but as a 40 yo, I found this to be a nice little extra when I just want to treat myself to a little something.
So, as I said you are started with a $5/week earn limit...does not seem like much? Youre right..but it adds up and does so quickly. If you can invite 20 more people to join, your earn limit goes up to $10/wk.
Oh, another cool feature of Jingit is that you can buy new music downloads using your funds, too!
I was skeptical to use Jingit at first, but its turned out to be quite fun...and its LEGITIMATE. I dont get spammy emails from them either, you can log in using your Facebook account. Try it out!
