If you find yourself short of cash then perhaps you should consider entering free competitions and contests where you can win big money or valuable prizes, or sign up for freebies and enter the lottery or a sweepstake. They can be an easy way to make yourself some money, just ask the thousands of people who have already clicked onto this idea and enter hundreds of online competitions every week - all you have to do is make the effort!
Every month there's more than a billion dollar sweepstakes all over the world, some of that money could come to you if you just put in the effort and time. What's more exciting than entering a competition and then waiting to see if you have won? The adrenalin rush you get whilst waiting, and then the euphoria when you realize you are a winner can add a bit of spice to your life.
You might think it's not worth the effort or your valuable time but just take a second look at some of the prizes on offer and you'll soon be changing your mind. Luxury cruises, cars, ipods, holidays, laptops, groceries and shopping trips are just some of the prizes that can be snapped up if you know what you are doing.
Online sweepstakes are free to enter and generally presented either by a random drawing or an instant-win game. Think about the ones you want to enter, although you may really want that luxury villa or new car so will plenty of others so your chances of winning are minimal. Look out for good quality prizes in sweepstakes that don't attract as many people and spend more time on these as they offer you a greater opportunity of winning.
