This is an incomplete list, and it was started a while ago. I was not able to finish it, but if you could help me by submitting more sites in the comments, I would appreciate it.

Coupon sites would be great if thats what they really were, people trying to help other people save money. Instead there are some very well known sites that want you to download some “printing” software just to get the coupons. Being a web developer, I am confident in saying that this is unnecessary, and it more than likely comes with some tracking software that the “coupon” site is getting paid for every person they get to install the software. Until I found out differently this is my stance.

DO NOT USE THESE:

1. cool savings dot com
   1. This site purports that it is a coupon site with lots of savings. I found hundreds of advertisements, and about 50 coupons. But you have to install their software, which is something I will not do.
   2. Tried to change my email address, and the server script died with an error
2. Eversave dot com
   1. Supposedly a great coupon site, but between the small amount of coupons, the advertisements, and the required printing software I did not find something I like.
3. Your Product Samples
   1. Just a way for them to make you go through their sponsor advertisements, I bet if you wanted the thing they are offering for free, you could go to that company’s home page and get it there without all the bull…
4. Quality Health dot com
   1. This site may be a good resource for health information, I dont know. I filled out like 8 surveys and never saw anything from it. I would say this is not worth it if you are looking for money or prizes

MAYBE:

1. Freebie Pal
   1. Registered with an email address, they approved my registration but said that the email could not be validated. So I tried a different email and never received the registration confirmation link.
2. Let the Deals Begin
   1. This site seems like it could be good, but so far they have not given me anything that I can use, there were advertisements and lead me to the be the boss network (see my “Surveys: Sites that are not worth it” Post)

If you have, and you need to vent you should head over to Get Screwed By.  You can read how other people are getting screwed and send in your story for inclusion on the site.

Ok, I couldn’t help but post this… The networks have been plastering commercial time with this one for almost a week now.

If you have heart burn you should try prescription Aciphex.  That’s right it is pronounced “Ass-effects”.

You know what, If I have heartburn, I’m probably having some ass effects as well.

Here’s the youtube video of the commercial: Aciphex video
