w00000000000000t!!

- $20 Lowe's gift cards from Complete Home (one of the free offers)
- 2 free cameras from Travelers Advantage (one of the free offers)
- a free pair of 7-mile range Audiovox walkie-talkies!! Valued at $49.99 (from Great Fun, another one of the free offers)
- 4GB 2nd gen iPod mini from Citibank for opening a checking account and paying 2 bills a month for the next year)!

I realllllly like the walkie talkies. For a free item, that's amazing! They're crystal clear (I bought supposedly good ones before for $50, and they were worse than this). Huge props to Great Fun!

Awesome, congrats!

How are the digital cameras? Ok for a free item?

What was the timeframe for the mini? I read about it somewhere, like if you don't pay the 2 bills a month for a year, they charge you the MSRP. Did you get it once you opened the checking account?

the digicams are pretty crappy, they take 0.3mp pictures, but the cool part is they can serve as a webcam. the pics come out OK, good enough to keep in the car for emergencies (if somebody rails you, you can take pictures of the evidence).

The iPod deal... the rules said 2 months after opening up a checking account with $2500 and paying the bills, you should get it within 3 months from then. i opened up my account in december, just got it about 4 months later. i pay my bills anyway, so i just switched from BofA billpay to citi. everything has been working out great, so i just gotta make sure not to forget paying my bills for the next 8 months.
