<p><strong>What: </strong><a href="http://qdmil.com/click/?s=131989&amp;c=155061&amp;subid=offcost">RushCard Prepaid Visa</a><br />
<strong>What: </strong>How to rebuild your credit so you can save money</p>
<p><img class="alignleft" title="RushCard to rebuild credit - 100% Approved with no Credit Check." src="http://www.offcost.com/misc/rushcard.jpg" alt="" width="154" height="193" />What the heck does &#8220;RushCard&#8221; have to do with saving money? Yeah, I asked myself that same question when people kept telling me I should check it out. I told them, &#8220;this blog is about random deals found on the Internet and tips to save money.&#8221; Well, that second part is the key.</p>
<p><em>From the RushCard website: The credit reporting agencies we report to use your transaction history to create a positive credit file for you. When you apply for credit, lenders may use your positive credit file to qualify you and offer you lower interest rates.</em></p>
<p>Most Americans were effected by the recent downturn in the economy. Some lost jobs, some had to take pay cuts, some got behind on bills and mortgage payments. All of this can result in negative outcomes for your credit score. Your credit score in-turn determines what interest rate you are awarded and even whether or not you can even get the loan. So, when that credit score starts dropping your credit cards ( usually with balances ) start raising  your rates. How the heck are you supposed to get outta debt when they keep raising the rates? Uh&#8230;yeah&#8230;they figured that out when they issued the credit cards. You see, they don&#8217;t want you to pay it off so they make it difficult for you to do so.</p>
<p>OK, so back to RushCard. This program was created by Russell Simmons and is a way where you can start rebuilding your credit. When I started reviewing this it started making sense. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">It builds or restores your credit, it is safer than cash, there are no overdraft fees, it helps you manage your money, and best of all, <strong>100% GUARANTEED APPROVAL! with no credit or ChexSystems® checks.</strong></span></p>
<p><a href="http://qdmil.com/click/?s=131989&amp;c=155061&amp;subid=offcost">So, I&#8217;m giving this a thumbs up.</a> You should check it out. To get the details I mention above you need our special link in the banner below: <strong><a href="http://qdmil.com/click/?s=131989&amp;c=155061&amp;subid=offcost">CLICK HERE</a></strong></p>

<p><strong>What people are saying about their RushCard</strong></p>
<p><em>I got my RushCard because I couldn’t get a bank account. I heard that you could have your tax refund directly deposited to your RushCard. I knew that would be easier and faster than going through the pain of getting my tax refund in a check and then trying to cash it without having a bank account. – Cynthia W.</em></p>
<p><em>RushCard has truly been a blessing for me and my family. It’s really a lifesaver. I decided to get a RushCard because the fees of those check cashing businesses were ridiculous. I wanted to save money for my family and my kids, so RushCard was the best option. – Nicole J.</em></p>
<p><em>I have had many accounts with banks, and no matter what I did, I’d end up with huge overdrafts, which then affected my credit rating. Unfortunately I find bookkeeping tedious…it’s a discipline I just don’t have. I use my RushCard for paying bills. It was easy to set up, and now, every month on the 3rd I pay all my bills and I don’t have to worry about it again. – Jamil B.</em></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://qdmil.com/click/?s=131989&amp;c=155061&amp;subid=offcost">Click here to get your Rush Card today!</a><em><br />
</em></h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Full disclosure: If you decide to take advantage of this credit rebuilding tool, I&#8217;ll make a small commission for referring you. If you don&#8217;t think I should get this you can just bypass me and just go directly to RushCard.com <img src='http://www.offcost.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></p>

<p><strong>OR is it?</strong></p>
<p>Today we are going to talk about a site called <a href="http://tinyurl.com/yk9nwz4">CashCrate.com</a> where they promise you can &#8220;get paid by completing surveys and other offers.&#8221; I&#8217;ve seen these types of offers come across my email inbox for years and <strong>I&#8217;ve always thought these are a total waste of time and a just a big scam</strong>&#8230;but this one got my attention.</p>
<p>I visited the website and started looking around. I found that I could &#8220;Complete a Cruise Survey&#8221; and get .50 cents, fill out a sweepstakes to win a iPad and make .75 cents, and complete some gas card giveaway and make .25 cents. Awesome! I&#8217;m up to $1.50. <img src='http://www.offcost.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  Well, what a beating&#8230;we are getting no where.</p>
<p>So, then I started doing some hunting. Turns out people are making money on this site and I&#8217;m not talking about loose change. I did find some offers where you can make some bigger money like &#8220;signup for Directv and get $100&#8243;! I guess if you are going to do that anyway you should at least get paid.</p>
<p><strong>So, is it a scam? </strong>Looks like it isn&#8217;t at all. If you have some time to kill ( maybe in the evenings you night-owls ) and you want to make an <strong>extra $75 &#8211; $150 a month</strong> with a minimal investment of time, then maybe you should check it out. I did a quick test and made a quick $14.75 in about 10 minutes. That is a far cry from this dude ( $187 bucks in 1 month in case you can&#8217;t read the check):</p>

<p><strong>If you do decide to try this let me recommend</strong> that you create a FREE YAHOO.com or GMAIL.com email account so you don&#8217;t completely SPAM-OUT your work or personal email address. Then use that yahoo or gmail email account when you complete your offers.</p>
<p>Go to <a href="http://tinyurl.com/yk9nwz4">CashCrate.com</a> and get signed up and let me know in the comments if you make any &#8220;REAL&#8221; money. I guess in this economy every little bit helps right?</p>
