    they give you (1) $5 coupon every 3 months. the trick is that they overlap for 1 day before the older one expires. i also got another $5 coupon for filling out a survey.

    Yeah most I got was $10. I just got a new $5 one, I'll use it towards Forza 2. Anyway do that BrightSpot TV thing? Apparently it lowers your monthly fee when you simply watch ads.

    Just did a few ads on Brightspot. Already racked up $5, and they'll pay up to $10/month of your gamefly bill.

    you got burned Crackin. Checkout Brightspot.tv you just watch advertisements and they credit you 50 cents for each one which can be used to pay your gamefly bill. I think they'll offer other services down the road, but Gamefly is the only one at this time.

    I wish there was a way for me to program my computer to click on the ads to make money while I am away ;).

    Amazon had this one beta program going for awhile called HiTS. There was a huge bug in the system that allowed Firefox add ons to allow your computer to the HiTS by themselves. You earned anywhere between a penny to 5 cents per hit - but your computer would do like 3000 hits easily in a couple of hours. I managed to buy three 360 games at launch, and some computer accessories with the money I made (over $500). Amazon finally realized the bug around the beginning of 2006, shut down HiTS, and reopened it a few months ago. The bug is no more :(
