Have you checked out M-Go? Until December 31, 2013, you can try them out for free by renting two movies with the promotional code 2MOVIES. Each movie will last for 29 days but can only be watched for 24-hours after the first viewing.
If you have a Swagbucks account, you can also earn 500 Swagbucks when you go through their offers page. That's enough points to redeem a $5 Amazon.com giftcard.
Only for new M-GO accounts created between 10/03/2013 and 12/31/2013. Promotion is only valid for the first thirty (30) days after account creation. Must be a U.S. resident in the 50 states. Limit one promo code per transaction. Up to two (2) uses per account. Each use up to a $5.99 value. Excludes Disney titles. Cannot be combined with other promotional offers. The discount will automatically be applied at checkout on some devices (note: qualifying customers must manually apply the promo code “2MOVIES” on Android, GoogleTV and Samsung Smart TVs to receive the discounted price). Discount will be reflected in the emailed receipt and transaction history. Additional conditions for watching each rental will be provided during checkout. Promotion and promo codes have no cash value, except as required by law. Promotion and promo codes cannot be copied, sold, or otherwise transferred. Void where prohibited. Terms and conditions are subject to change.
Swagbucks is currently offering some great discounts. Ranging from 35-50 Swagbucks, you can print coupons for local retailers. One example is a BOGO deal for Taco Bell that costs only 35 Swagbucks. Other coupons include discounts for Payless Shoes, T.G.I. Fridays, and more.
If you haven't already started using Swagbucks, you really should consider it. There is no fee to join and no fee to use. Instead of using Google when you do web searches, head over to Swagbucks instead. Their search engine is powered by Google and Ask.

Recently I have thought about sites I mentioned months ago which might have gotten lost in the shuffle of things. I am going to begin reposting sites that I truly enjoy using when it comes to saving money. This repost is about Swagbucks.
Swagbucks is a site that rewards users with points, referred to as Swagbucks, for using the internet. Swagbucks can be redeemed for prizes.
What are the prizes?
The most popular prize is the $5 amazon.com gift card for 450 swagbucks but the Swag Store is full of all different prizes and sweepstakes.
How do I earn swagbucks?
These are the methods that I use to earn swagbucks.
Searching the Web - Swagbuck's search engine combines Google and Ask to bring you search results. You can set your browser's default search engine to Swagbucks to increase your chance of winning. Not every search will result in swagbucks. On Fridays, referred to as Mega Bucks Friday, you can win even more swagbucks through searches.
Finding Swag Codes - Codes are placed randomly throughout the social networks. You can find them on Facebook, Twitter, Swagbuck's blog, and more. Sometimes the codes will be easy to find and other times they might require a hunt. Please note that sharing the swag codes can result in your accounted being canceled.
Daily Polls - Earn a swagbuck everyday when you vote in the daily poll.
Playing Games - Swagbucks recently began hosting games. Just playing the games can randomy earn you Swagbucks but you can also enter tournaments to win more.
Inviting Your Friends - You will earning matching swagbucks, up to 1000 each, when you refer your friends. The matching swagbucks are only for searches.
Use the Widget - You can install the widget anywhere including Facebook and Twitter.
Here are some more methods of earning swagbucks.
Install the Toolbar - If you install the toolbar, you will earn one swagbuck each day when you open your browser. They also put swagcodes through messages on the toolbar so that's an additional reason to install it if your browser isn't already cluttered.
Surveys -You can qualify for surveys. Depending on the length of survey, you will earn a different amount of swagbucks.
Special Offers - This includes signing up for mailing lists or just watching commercials. It's something to look at when you're bored to earn some extra swagbucks.
Shopping in the Earn Mall - When shopping online, click through the Swagbucks Mall to earn points on every purchase.
Recycling -You can send in your old broken electronics to be recycled and earn points.
Post Your Prizes - When you post pictures of your redeemed prizes on Facebook or Twitter, you might win extra swagbucks for sharing.
What can I do to increase my swagbucks? Can abusing the system cause my account to be deleted?
I listed these two questions together because they go together.
You can set your browser's default search engine to swagbucks. This way you have a chance to earn swagbucks each time you search. Make sure you only make real searches. If you search for too many things in a row, Swagbucks might suspend your account for spam.
When a swag code is published somewhere, you have the opportunity to earn extra swagbucks. There are rules surrounding the swag codes which include you can't share them. This is because the codes are sometimes designed as a scavenger hunt. You are allowed to say something like "check out the swagbuck's twitter for a swag code" but you can't say "Swagbuck's twitter just posted the code 'FAKECODE' for 8 bonus swagbucks." Abusing the codes can also result in an account suspension.
Posting your link around the internet is a great way to increase your swagbucks from referrals. Just don't spam. If you spam your link, Swagbucks has the right to close your account.
Swagbucks has put together a great list of dos and don'ts if I missed anything.
What is the Widget?
The widget allows you to use and share the different features of Swagbucks. You can install the widget on any social network page or website. As you will notice, the widget below has my name on it. This is because as I mentioned, you can share it with your friends. The bottom right has a sign up button which is customized with my referral link. If you install a widget somewhere, it will be personalized with your link.
Additionally, the widget will always tell you where the swag codes are located when codes are released. If you don't have a place to place the widget, I recommend selecting the Twitter version because it is a link to a website that has just your widget so you can bookmark it.
If you have any additional questions about Swagbucks, please leave a comment and I will help find an answer.
Swagbucks is celebrating their 3rd birthday and everyone can celebrate. New members can get a 50 SB bonus by entering the code 3rdBirthday115. Everyone can get bonus SBs throughout the weekend as they celebrate three great years of searches and prizes.
The cost of music is always rising but there are legal ways to get free music.
One way is to listen to the radio. It's always been free and hopefully will always be free. There are radio stations for all genres of music and with the internet, you can now listen to even more. My favorite online radio is Pandora which also has apps for smart phones. YouTube is a good source when you want to hear a specific song.
Another great source is your public library. Libraries have music and while you can't keep it indefinitely, it's always a good source to get new or old music. Return the CDs on time and you will never pay late fees.
There are always free songs available on iTunes and Amazon. Every week you'll find specials and new artists to download. Additionally, you can earn free gift cards to Amazon through Swagbucks and redeem them for free music.
Some online music stores offer different options. eMusic offers two different trial deals. 25 Free MP3 Downloads and $5 Music Credit. I personally would go with the 25 free downloads but I wanted to make you aware of both promotions. Just a side note, that eMusic is a subscription site so the trial will turn into a paid membership unless you choose to cancel. You can always cancel the subscription and remain a per song member. Songs average $0.89 which is cheaper than some of the mainstream sites.
Today, Swagbucks has opened their games section to everyone. This section was previously in beta testing for select users and I've heard good things about it. The games section allows you to earn Swagbucks while playing games. Basically there are two ways to earn. The first way is randomly, similar to the searches. The second way is through tournaments where you spend Swagbucks to enter and hope to win the prize.
If you don't already use Swagbucks, then I recommend reading my information post on Swagbucks. I have described the site and how to earn free Amazon.com giftcards.
Right now on Coupons.com you can get a coupon for $2 off Pedigree Good Bites. This is a good coupon because there are reports that these dog treats are currently $2.98 at Target, making them just $0.98 after the coupon. Sort the coupons by Pet Care to easily find the coupon.
Before you just use the link above, consider what websites you currently have memberships to. My Points and Swagbucks both offer points for printing out and redeeming coupons through their sites.
Swagbucks is offering a Black Friday special on their PayPal gift cards. Today only, you can get $5 to PayPal for 550 Swagbucks. The normal price for this reward is 700 so this is a 21% discount.
