I signed up with CashCrate.com today after being referred by another website, and so far it’s a nice little way to earn some extra cash. Most of the money to be made is by filling out short surveys and signing up for no cost deals, and sometimes deals that cost. But the decision is up to you.

For example, I had to fill out a survey this morning that required my contact information, and then a long question and answer about Taco Bell. That was an exception though, since most are simply one page fill out your information, and complete a free offer to earn anywhere from .25 to 1.00 dollar type deals.

There are pay offers as well, like join Boca Java for a few dollars, get some coffee and then CashCrate pays you. You can cancel the coffee subscription if you wish and still keep the money. That actually seems the quickest way to make money. I can forsee that filling out surveys and completing offers for under a dollar is going to take a while to get, to say, $30.

Overall I recommend CashCrate for some easy money. I’ve made about $5 in under 20 minutes. Not too bad.
