I'm up to $1.00 in earned credit now.

BTW, you have to be signed into your account on Amazon to see the link.

I'm at $0.80 now! Several more years and maybe I'll be able to afford 19" LCD or something :)

20 cents? What's your time worth? Want to do the math on how long it took you to collect the princely sum of 2 dimes? I'm betting you're working for about 1/4 of minimum wage. If you got a paper route or started picking through trash cans looking for deposit bottles you'd probably be making more per hour.[/quote]

I dunno. Every day, even without clearing cookies, mine shows up on the main page. In the center part, under the first item listed.

As mentioned before, this does not seem to work with anything other than IE though.

Imagine...in the time it took to crap this thread, you could have made a couple bucks on the amazon trivia. Or recycled some people's nasty dirty dumpster cans. YAY!!!!!!!

Weird. I get the Trivia link on my home computer (IE 6 WinXP), but not at work (IE 6 Win98SE). The only difference is that at home, I log into Amazon automatically, whereas at work I log in manually.

woohoo! worked for me from office(ie6/win2k/logged in to amazon and went through gold box offers). $.20 in 1 minute = $12/hr tax free. granted you can only make $.20/day or $1/wk but for only 1 minute's worth of time while surfing at work anyway, by the time christmas rolls around i will have about $40 to apply to gift purchases. and every little bit helps when you're trying to buy a whole house.

thanks herbster for posting this deal. i probably wouldn't have found out about it otherwise. pls keep on posting.

I think I have about 35 or so nickels so far...lessee...do the math...$1.75? Anyways, today I got 3 questions that I had previously, so I guess there aren't that many questions. Like someone else said, maybe by Christmas I'll have enough for a free gift!

First time visitor. Got a kick out of reading responses that were flying back and forth, good-naturedly! Looking forward to being a regular w/this site. The "nickels" add up, but have to wonder sometimes, at "what cost". Hopefully when we go to spend them, there won't be a special fee!

Do any of you sell on Amazon? It's a great way to part with some of those tech books that are supporting a table leg or just getting dusted off. Now that's some REAL cash in a hurry! Check it out.

Happy Spring.

I gave up on this crap.

Wether I use Mozilla or IE, I can not find the trivia questions. I spent a good 2 hours with each browser looking for them... no luck whats so ever.
Unless somebody can provide a link besides Amazon's search page which says it excists.

Didn't see any questions yesterday and I don't see them today.
Over already? :brokenheart:

Edit: Dar... OK. I see them now. They are still there. Coffee. I need coffee...

I had them both days. Maybe your cookies got dumped and you weren't being recognized by the Amazon site.

After collecting about 50+ nickels, I stopped getting the option awhile back. But yesterday and today, it came back, and I've earned another few nickels.
