Ok, because I have nothing better to do I decided to play around with a site I found a discussion on at Slickdeals called ipodsweepstakes.com. It is a GPT (get paid to) site that awards you “points” for completing different offers ranging from 4 points for entering your zip code or email address to 136 points for signing up for a Netflix trial. They also give you 200 points for signing up. The points are redeemable for iPods where 1000 points gets you a 1GB iPod Shuffle, 2000 points gets you a 2GB iPod Nano, and 3000 points gets you a 30GB iPod Video.
My brother-in-law did this one and has already received his iPod, and I just earned my 1000 points which I have redeemed for a Shuffle as well. It took minimal work and money ($6 for six $1 trial offers) to earn my iPod. If you are interested in signing up, you can do so at:

(Disclaimer: if you use this link I get extra points, so show some love!)
If you do this, be sure to use a disposable email address like Yahoo or Hotmail, and get a disposable phone number like Privatephone (see my previous post here.
BEWARE..Looks like it turned into another scam site.
Something is going on with this site. It no longer is getting it’s rewards out to people that they have earned. Im still waiting for a 16gb Ipod touch over 13 weeks now. They said it would only take 4-6 weeks to be shipped. They no longer answer their emails and you can not reach them by phone. They say they will respond to your email in 24 hrs and nothing for months now. They also have not done their daily drawing for the free ipod either. Everything has stopped as far as for the people that are making them money by clicking on their advertisers links. Someone needs to investigate them as they are still getting advertisers and not fullfilling their end.
