Sarge, I'm skeptical only because I don't understand how they make
money. No one would set up something like this unless it was
profitable. Still, that doesn't mean it's not a good deal for
someone, just not me right now.

Probably through advertising. They also earn money "I'm guessing" when
people buy things. The more you buy the more you earn and I guess the
more they earn. I'm taking a chance on this, but I do have friends who
have used this site and they are pretty happy with it. Just like
anything I guess you are taking a chance. They do give you a prepaid
Master Card to earn you money on and use at any retail place that
excepts it. Although you do have to earn back $5 or more to be able to
use your prepaid card. I hope this help you understand better. I
haven't told you anything the site doesn't explain, except that I know
people used have used this site and have add success. Good luck if you
do try it.

I thought about it for a while and, after reading your responses I'm
guessing that it's the retailers that are paying the site a "finder's
fee."
Example: They buy widgets for $3 each and sell them for $10 each,
making $7 profit. They sell me a widget at a discount for $9 and pay
the site $1 finder's fee. They "lose" $2 of their $7 profit, or they
make $5. Had I not been on the site, I wouldn't have bought a widget,
and they wouldn't make any profit. So you spend a little to make a
little.
