EpicRewardz monthly contest

There are a few contests spread throughout EpicRewardz. The 1st is a monthly daily survey contest for US people and I'm currently in 1st place. The 2nd is a monthly daily survey contest for UK people. The last contest is an offer wall contest open to any nation. All these contests require people to do the most in 1 month. I'm trying but work is making it hard to do more. If you want to sign up under me and enter go ahead. It still isn't too late to join up EpicRewardz because I joined pretty late and reach 3rd place overall. Not bad for me and you can prove yourself to do more offers or surveys in the middle of the month.

Tips on winning SpeedyFinger

Here are some tips on winning SpeedyFinger. First of all, SpeedyFinger is very different from other penny auction sites in that every auction listed is a reserve auction. The key to winning is be patient in all of the auctions. Some people go away winning an auction with only a few bids, but others just place bids on auctions and then leave. This is where you take the chance at bidding some at someone else's expense. It may be cruel, but it will prove to be invaluable in getting that item you always wanted.

SpeedyFinger does have beginner auctions where it cost no bids. You just keep clicking your mouse button until you win. It is that simple. Now it is onto the bid packs at the bottom of the screen. Those auctions only cost bids so use them wisely. All of them are guessing games on whether they end high or low. The main purpose here is to build up your bids so you can tackle the featured items with as many bids as possible.
Bid Blitz should only be used to get what you want, but it will drain your bids fast until the reserve price is reached. The main problem with using Bid Blitz is that bidders run out of bids before the reserve price is reached. This is where you take the chance and use Bid Blitz yourself to win the auction. You may win big or lose some bids, but better than the last bidder who used all of his/her bids.

You can also exchange your winnings for bids to tackle on bigger items such as the iPad. I do this all the time and need the bids to get what I want from the auctions.
Just be careful of auctions that disable Bid Blitz because you may either win or lose bids if the reserve price is reached. There are some people who just build up a hoard of bids to tackle the priciest auctions with ease. Free bids make life easier and you have a better chance of winning. Just be prepared in advance and make sure you have bids to win on SpeedyFinger.

Sorry, haven't been blogging due to illness

Yes I haven't been blogging for a while due to my yearly eczema. It covers all over my body and comes out during the summer when the climate is really hot and dry. My eczema rarely comes out in the cold fall and winter seasons, but comes out later in the spring and summer. I have no health insurance and I can't find any work at all in Georgia. Tried networking, talking to hiring managers, and inside connections but no dice. My younger brother and I suffer the same skin disorder and my father is ill. This causes my mother to worry so much about the family's financial future and it isn't looking so well.

I'm trying to figure out a definite way to get rid of my eczema, so I can continue job hunting. I can't show up to work looking like I have leprosy. Except my skin is red, wrinky, thick, and peeling off all over my body. Don't worry, I'm still bidding on penny auction sites and just won a video game for $4.03 total. I still have some luck left in me and I'm observing cautiously on multiple PA sites. I'm no power bidder or jumper due to lack of financial funding, but observing PA sites to have my own PA site one day.

With all the scams popping up, Penny Auction Watch and Penny Burners step up to protect bidders from fraudulent PA sites. Bidfather is the latest penny auction site to appear and has establish 3 wins per day and 10 wins every 28 days to give others a fair chance at winning. Sites with no win limits are just impossible due to either power bidders or bots shilling to inflate the price of auction items. Oddly enough, one site is interested in my consulting services due to my experience with a few PA sites. I'm doing my services for free so the PA site will continue to exist instead of shutting down for good.

I feel embarrassed for having this lifelong skin disorder eczema, but I have to sharpen my mind to prepare for my last year at my university. I'm planning to succeed in business, but finding a steady flow of income after I graduate is my first priority.

PA sites popping up everyday

Yes penny auction sites keep appearing everyday. I don't know how but looks like many people want to go into the business. Seems to be pretty easy but you still must have capital in order to start a business. Compared to other types of businesses, penny auction sites seem to be more affordable and cheaper than others. Maybe I should start up one and see how it goes then. Unfortunately, there are scams of these sites all over the Internet, so you have to be careful and determine which ones are legit and which ones are scams.

Strategies and tips to winning penny auctions

Ever wonder how you could win those items at penny auction sites so easily, but while everybody else throws their bids away at high-priced items? Here are a few observations I notice from penny auction sites.

1. Most sign up with the same username on multiple sites, establishing a reputation among bidders.
2. Bidders are more likely to win on PA sites that receive less traffic compared to more popular sites.
3. New PA sites keep popping up everyday and many bidders will go to the new site to win easier.
4. Juggling between PA sites is risky if the auction items are going to end at the same time.
5. Study your opponent's patterns on various PA sites and make sure they're about to reach their win limits.
6. There are always jumpers in PA sites, so you have to outbid them easily. Otherwise, that one jumper could've won the item with a free bid.
7. Do not go into a bidding war knowing you will lose your money and bids fast. This is the number one reason people seem to forget.
8. Throwing one bid when a new item appears is a waste since other people will always bid on the auction item in the end.
9. You got to have a plan and strategy to winning the auction item. If your opponent has won bid packs and cash, then they will most likely go after the high-priced items.
10. If you still can't win an item from a penny auction, then you haven't been studying hard enough to figure out your opponents' bidding patterns. You can't charge in there blindly and win.

Hope these tips will help you. I approach penny auction sites with caution since most of the winners don't seem to have jobs which IMHO is a waste of money since all they're doing is racking up credit card debt real fast. They have to sell their winnings in order to make a decent profit. Don't take PA sites lightly since they can be addictive (similar to gambling addiction).
