You may have noticed that I never have diapers, wipes or dogfood in my grocery match-ups every week.  The reason for that is that I am able to get these items for free (usually!) every month through the use of Amazon gift cards.  There are a few ways of earning Amazon gift cards with very little effort.

Swagbucks – Search the web, play games, complete offers or take surveys.  This is by far the easiest way to earn gift cards.  Reader Dee Ann will tell you she already has about 35 $5.00 Amazon gift cards.  That’s $175!  Totally free to sign up.

SavingStar – Load grocery eCoupons right onto your stores loyalty card.  Totally free and super easy to use.  This year I have gotten back about $30 worth of gift cards.

Valued Opinions - This is a paying survey site that pays in gift cards for sites like Amazon.  They will tell you the value of each and every survey before you begin, plus how long the survey will take.  Sign up is totally free.  I have gotten many gift cards from them.
