have you ever seen one of those ads that say "click here to get a free laptop" etc.. i was just wondering if they were real and if they are i wanna meet someone who actually received they're merchendise.
 
Most of them are not, but if they are real you have to do like 20 partner things. Where all their partners send you stuff you have to try. It is a pain.
 
Yes and no, if you complete the offers, than you probobly will get the laptop, it'll just take a while to actually get it. No because you probobly can't find enough people to help you with it. I've tried it and it didn't work for me because I couldn't find enough people to help me.
 
Some are real...but it's definetly not FREE.

For example, you may have to complete 5 "sponsor offers" of which might include; opening a credit card and buying something with it, ordering vitamins and trying them, ordering a DVD from a rental website, and...what's another popular one...OH! Getting 3 of your friends to sign up, and each has to complete there 5 offers as well.

So, yes I have read about people actually receiving there free stuff...AFTER they go through the lengthy process of cokpleting everything. Most of the stuff you have to pay shipping on, or there is some kind of small fee. If you're looking at getting a FREE* laptop, it will probably end up costing you ~$200 depending on what "offers" you pick.

Before you venture into any offer, research the hel out of it. You may end up getting a $2100 laptop for a mere few hundreds bucks. OR you may spend $200 and get absolutely nothing due to a technicality or time restriction...or anything really. It's risky at any rate.
 
Yeah, if I were you, I'd save up a few hundred, than go to the local refurbished and/or discount electronics store and get one, I think that there was a thread here somewhere about what the check when getting a new or refurb laptop. Also, you're just about old enough to work, so maybe you could get a job to help get the funds for the laptop.

Why would someone give away a free computer worth at least $300 if not double?
 
well, they want the offerers to get your money. thats all they want. money. they dont care about nuthing but their companies and money.
 
i dont think any of them will work, or at least not easy. Nothing is free
but my friend did get an ipod that way
