Free XBOX 360's!
Reply
Posted 2005-07-09, 06:18 PM
After the recent buzz of Gratis Internet distributing free iPods and flatscreens of various models, a new daughter site of theirs, free360xbox, promises to deliver free, brand new XBOX 360 consoles to U.S. citizens on the November release.

Of course, the promise of receiving a free meal, much less a brand-new, triple-core 3.2 GHz monster console, sounds extremely unlikely. How could any company possibly make a profit by giving away expensive merchandise?

The basic principle is that Gratis Internet give away a free XBOX 360 to anyone who signs up for at least one online promotion, and persuades eight other people to participate in the programme. Large, trustworthy companies (including eBay) sponsor Gratis Internet with free products like iPod's, flatscreens and XBOX 360's in return for customers.

The different online promotions and offers range from a trial month of Blockbuster to audiobooks, music cd's, popular magazine subscriptions and eBay account registrations. Many of the offers are completely free, and can be easily cancelled. Gratis Internet themselves will not receive any credit card information from the users who sign up, only the company selected for the offer(s) will.

Gratis Internet has been talked and written about on places like G4 Tech TV, BBC, Wired.com, Geek.com, CNN and the New York Sun, with positive response to their marketing strategy.

After personally having investigated many articles about Gratis Internet and their sites, I am 100% convinced this is the real deal. Even more so because I have friends and contacts who have confirmed that Gratis Internet has previously given them free iPods and other products as promised. Note that being referred by someone will not matter to you.


Help me get an XBOX 360 by letting yourself be referred by me:
http://www.Free360XBOX.com/?r=20099897

Or, visit their site without being referred by myself:
http://www.Free360XBOX.com

More offers by Gratis Internet, including free iPod's, flatscreens, mini macs, PSP's, digital cameras and much more:
http://www.gratisnetwork.com


Of course, you are allowed to put your own referral link(s) in your signature on this thread to more easily get your own XBOX 360, iPod or whatever you are after.

Don't call it free if it isn't free.

But it is, you don't need to pay anything for it. You can, of course, keep interesting subscriptions to pay for them if you like them.

You have to complete an online offer, I'm assuming that means you have to buy something.

No, you can sign up for one of many free trials for around a month of time. If they do not satisfy you, you can easily cancel your subscription, not having paid a single cent. You will still receive valid credits from the company you chose for your free offer.

Many of the offers can also be subscribed to for a sum of money (for example, a trial month of Blockbuster Online will cost $9.99 USD, and let you rent as many DVD movies as you want during that period of time).

As far as I'm concerned, you can get the iPods in the UK.

You guys have to do this, this is what my friend did to get a free nintendo DS.


You get your referal link, and sicne you basically get points for having people joinw ith your link and signup for offers, you give your friends $10 each, they complete the offer, and you get an Ipod, NDS, PSP, XBOX360 or whatever you choose for a fraction of the price it would cost you to actually buy one.


So if the xbox360 costs $300 at launch, you could give 10 of your friends $10 and it would cost you $100 instead!

No

Option A) Buy xbox360 at store and pay MSRP (lets say its $300)

Option B) Give your friends $10 to sign up under you and complete offers, and get the xbox360 for the ammount you gave your friends

But I don't want an iPod. The iPods are always breaking, the software that comes with them is a piece of crap, the battery life is terrible, and if something goes wrong with it then you've got to send it over to America where they will fix it in a couple of weeks and send it back to you completely wiped of anything you put on it.

Whereas with the Sony I've got has never broke, the software is easy to use and actually works, the battery life is 30 hours (around 28 on a bad day) and if something goes wrong then I can take it to the nearest Currys, Comet or PC World, look around the other shops, come back and it will be fixed with all my songs intact. And it's a damn site smaller - it's smaller than the iPod mini's with 5 times the memory (20gb).

Anyway, iPods aren't the same as next gen. games consoles.

Btw, what did !K_A! reply to me that needed an edit? It seems that by replying to me he was directing it at me, so I'm kinda curious...

I suppose some kind of list of users signed up for the programme could be a possibility, that has their referral link, plus their total amount of referrals and name of the offer. For instance,

User X, (iPod mini), 2/5
User Y, (XBOX 360), 1/8
User Z, (XBOX 360), 5/8


If the list grows too large, it will definitely be almost impossible for EVERYONE on the list to get all their referrals from other Zelaron members. But that doesn't prevent anyone from getting a few signups on their behalf here and there. Hmm, I'm just ranting.

Anyone sign up for the XBOX 360 yet?

"Hint Hint" says #20099897

I'd be a referall... but that means if have to do one online promotion right? Or just signed up..?
Anyways it seems to me that the companies that we are actually trying out like, blockbuster ect., probably pay for the xbox's or just pay this 'Gratis Internet' to advertise? or just make thier companys more efficent... And Gratis figures this would be the best way to get to the younger market. Obviously not many people over 35ish are going to be trying to get a Xbox or Ipod period, much less anywhere besides BestBuy.

You know, I tried signing up for a years supply of free ice cream by doing this... then I found out that you have to sign up for like 4 of those online promotions, most of which look somthing like: Free 8oz. of MEN's facial soothing cream. S&H. 34.93$
