Only 29 labrador fans in a site of 69,855?

shirgie @shirgie (230) • United States 13 Feb 07

Are you frugal, cheap or ?

shirgie @shirgie (230) • United States 1 Dec 06

I like to consider myself frugal but in all honesty, I probably am not really. I use coupons, rebates, special deals I hear about on a website I subscribe to and more to get lots of free stuff. Sometimes stuff that I don't even...

mcmomss @mcmomss (2601) • United States 10 Jan 07

For those of you that play netwinner.com and have won, do they send out the gift cards or checks quickly or do they make you wait for them? Just wondering, I haven't reached the payout amount yet, but I'm working on it.

shirgie For those coming upon this discussion now, I just wanted to inform you that payposter is no longer paying. They took back everyones money and I was almost to payout too. I guess you win some and lose some.

shirgie Hmmm...my star is a 9. I don't really know why it is 9 instead of a different number. I did lose quite a bit of earnings due to a referral. I didn't notice that the referral was breaking rules here but apparently that was the case. I rarely report anyone,...
