Hey All. Just got my newsletter from Bargain and Haggle and see that they have started a $5 referral program. I'm excited as i think it will drive even more traffic to the site (I am doing quite well right now on B & H). Here's the text in case any of you don't get the newsletter:
TAKE $5 & MAKE $5! YOU HAVE TO READ THIS ONE!
As a registered user of BargainAndHaggle.com, you are eligible
to refer your friends to the site and get paid $5 once they register
and fulfill certain obligations (Negotiate, Negotiate, Negotiate!)
Don't panic about the term "obligations". We just want new people/your
friends to use the site!
Even better, any new user, or current user that has completed less
than 3 negotiations will be eligible for $5 by using our site. What an
enticing way to spread the word about BargainAndHaggle! Refer as many
friends as you'd like.
It's a great deal! They make money, you make money. In this climate
of increased stinginess, when is the last time a website PAID YOU?
Check it out and start making money now!

Sent out names and adresses to B&H earlier today. The last time I got paid for this type of thing was when I made as much money at Paypal for signing people up, as I made on my auctions. However, it is more dificult to get someone to sign up and actualy sell, than to sign up to spend money (as on Paypal). Already today, I have received a barrage of emaisl with questions about the sight. But I feel as you do...it is a great sight and hope it increasese in volume.
There are definitely a few hurdles to getting the $5, but the hurdles just bring more buyers and sellers to the site. I for one am just happy to see a site that is aggressively seeking new users. And I don't mind making some money off anybody.

I was a little bummed when they came out with this because they capped my founder member list of recruits. But, the 5 dollars will probably make me more money than the other system.
