How to Find Free Stuff on the Web

It's often said nothing in life is free, but the Internet may be rewriting the rules.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Modems
• Internet Access
• Search Engines

1. Enter whatever you're looking for, preceded by the word 'free,' into a Web search engine. (If you're looking for free stuff in general, a good search string is 'free stuff.')

2. Once you've found a site that offers the free stuff you're looking for, follow the instructions on how to get it.

3. Check software manufacturers' Web sites for free trial versions of their software. Sometimes you can get a complete program to try; it will expire after a certain date. The trial program may have limited features.

Tips & Warnings

• Some 'free stuff' has a catch: you might have to view ads while using a free ISP, for example.
• Investigate before you download.
• Free stuff includes screen savers, clip art, computer wallpaper, simple software and so on.
• Computer 'shareware' can be downloaded for free, but you generally have to pay later on to keep using it. the Shop icon'the URL will change from 'http' to 'https.' If the URL is not displayed, right-click anywhere on the site that is not a link and select Properties to view the URL.
• You can optimize your browser to accept cookies only from specific Web sites.

I have made a lot of money off this site and I got free items that I wanted for my girlfriend's birthday also lots of XBL points(Microsoft Points). Within a week I will be getting a Wii for myself free from here too.

I heard about this site through this other site:

on 8/6/2008 use your free time to take surveys and redeem items. Takes 3-5 minutes a survey but after a while you will have enough points for any item on amazon.
