Yippee! Another Crazy Credits contest is ready for entries!! I will be adding to the lists of offers throughout the day. Go get 'em!

As anticipated, the Doubleday Book Offer was pulled, but I was able to get approval to run a similar offer in its place! You will see that the Quality Paperback Book Club has been added to our Crazy Credits contest today.

This one has a great payout at $10! Very nice offer too. It is legit and only requires the purchase of two books over the next year. If you purchase the first when you sign up, you can buy it for just $4.99. That's a great deal. Where are all my readers?

*Note, this offer does replace the Doubleday Book Club as the advertiser will not allow members to sign up for both clubs.

What can you get with the Vista Print?? Do I need to order all of the free products, or just what I want? It's been just one item in the past, but this time there are a bunch that are there

I did this offer a few days ago and just got one item the address labels as we will be moving soon.

I'm thinking it's one of the items on that page...but you are right, it's only been one item in the past, so I will wait for Angie to confirm.

You are all correct! You can choose just one item and get credit. Vista Print has lots of great stuff. Give something a try! You might find a new place to have all of your printing done including business cards, post its, labels, letterhead, notecards, etc.

Is anyone else having trouble with the quiz offer? I went all the way through it, and instead of telling me whether I was street smart, it told me what super villain I am. I think it took a detour somewhere . . .

Just did the book club. Got a couple James Patterson's and a Nora Roberts for me. And, after way too much debate got the Host and The Notebook for Grace. Great timing, Grace needed a summer reading book for her World Studies class. Because it is a honor's class, she got to pick any book. Trying to get her to sit down and pick a book was like pulling teeth. She loves reading but she doesn't always focus very well.

I did the quiz offer and it told me that my email addy was invalid :rolleyes: So I figured that I was not going to get credit for it but it did credit on the hours.

Mine went through ok, just never credited for me. The quiz offers rarely do anymore, but I figured it was worth a shot since everyone else was doing so well. Told me I was street smart. :)

I'm 3/6 (in the middle of 6th right now) so I can't complain!

That probably means you got credit in the past for it since it is an old offer. I had the same thing happen. Chalked it up to not paying attention and while the credit would be nice I was almost out of sticky notes so another pad for just shipping is fine with me.

Leslie
05-20-2009, 03:57 PM
When I look at the offer it says "yes" for credit paid.

Mine also says "yes" for credit paid, but I haven't done the offer yet. I logged on to do it and saw that it already said "yes". I did an offer for free notecards in the past, but it was for a different amount. (It is also marked that I have received credit.)

So, should I not try this offer?

askomsky
05-20-2009, 04:10 PM
Same here on the Vista offer, the free sample I think that was the only one I hadn't done bc back when it first came out there was confusion and I remember saying hmm I'll wait to see. But when I checked today it said I had already done that one. I'm pretty sure I didn't, at least it's not in my spreadsheet saying I did it.

missangie
05-20-2009, 04:21 PM
To avoid confusion and to allow the Vista Print Free Sample Offer to successfully be completed a second time, I've deactivated the old offer and programmed a new one!!

Note: You are allowed to do this offer a second time if you completed it previously as long as previously was when the offer originally came out. If you have done the offer in the last couple of days or during this contest, please do not attempt to do it again.

As for those of you that did it and are being told you have already been credited for past activity, I will pull the report and contact you individually about getting credit a second time.

So, if you want to try another Vista Print Free Sample, go for it!!

LaptopDelivery.com has had a payout decrease at the request of the advertiser. The quality of leads across the board has not been good. I'm leaving this offer in the contest for now with additional instructions in the offer detail. Please know that the payout has been decreased. Credits posting prior to this change should remain the same.

I had my dd quick to the college survey before work, and it keeps asking for her college institution.
When she puts in University of Wisconsin-Gren Bay, and hits submit, it erases it. She tried a bunch of times.
I had her just go out, and I told her I'll report it.

The advertiser will not issue credit for both book clubs. The only reason you were allowed to try both is because of the missing credit on Doubleday. We'll have to see if the credit for QPB comes through.

That's correct, you CAN NOT do it again if you just did it recently. Duplicating this offer is only allowed if you did it the first time when it originally came out.

I posted earlier in this thread in this regard. Unfortunately, the advertiser on this one wasn't happy with the quality of the leads across the board (not just from our site) and dropped the payout. I had no choice but to make an adjustment as well. I, however, didn't want to pull it from the contest if it was still crediting and allowing members to enter.

I'm sorry for the confusion, but that credit is accurate.

Yeah I had DH try it for conituing edu and after all info was entered and trying to hit submit it kept saying only 1 entry per household or something along those lines and I double checked to make sure I didn't do it before. Unless it was like a year ago, but it said "No" for credit received.
