I read a recent post on Meryl K. Evans' blog about organiziing your magazines. Freelancers are notorious for collecting magazines. I have tons. We study magazines to improve the chances of having our pitch accepted and to generate ideas. But this habit can get pretty expensive, in addition to taking up loads of space. Meryl has some suggestions on how to cut the clutter, but I have a way of getting cutting costs.
RewardsGold is a member program that rewards you for shopping, but it also gives rewards for filling out surveys. The website says membership is by invite only but that you can write to request an invitation. I honestly don't remember how I learned about RewardsGold, but I can tell you I've never spent a penny to earn rewards. The rewards I've earned are free magazines, simply for completing short surveys about my shopping habits!
You may want to check it out and request an invite. I can tell you it's worth the time. I've received Forbes, Business Week, Parenting, Interview, Prevention and American Photo all for free. And believe me, the surveys really are short or else I'd never complete them!
I just wanted to pass this resource along to you, Hopefully, you'll score some great free magazines of your own. Let me know if you do!
By the way, stop on over to Meryl's blog to nominate your favorite writing book for her list of the Top 25 Books for Writers. I know this will be a good one.
