Widget Fidget Gidget
Ok, it’s kind of technical to explain but…. Our widget provider has switched platforms. Now, they are not supporting the previous platform. What this means to you and us is that all of the widgets that you have so industriously embedded around the Web-O-Sphere are now rendered useless. :o( We are searching for a new widget provider. But there won’t be anything we can do...

The past few days were very special for us. We were honored to co-sponsor StartupWeekend in Boulder, CO and Dallas, TX.
Here’s my experience in a few words: There were 35-40 smart talented people in one room (most meeting each other for the first time), sparked by tsunami-entrepreneurship-tech-energy-spirit, Wi-Fi, a bunch of Macbook Pros in the room = AWESOME 3 day event. After...

Are you kidding me right now???? Check this out, from Chris, one of our esteemed ICS members and blogger extraordinaire/webmaster of www.freebiesandmuchmore.com : A few months ago, I ran across this really cool site called Instant Cash Sweepstakes.

The New and Improved TrustScore Has Launched
Hey gang, We spent the last few weeks studying all of your suggestions. We have re-engineered the TS system to make it more fun for you while still motivating the few members who could be doing a better job adding value to ICS. True demographics and candid opinions is all we ask. We’ve added a game-like quality to ICS. The TS ranks all have special bonuses and it will be fun to advance...

More Bonus Store purchases...the close-out sale!
Post from ICS user Kimberly in her blog, My Good Cents:
My ICS Bonus Store Prize Arrived!
A few days ago I wrote a post about the ICS Bonus Store closing. I had a load of coins and was excited to be able to snag three prizes! However, with that excitement I apparently forgot how to read and missed the one prize only rule. In the end I chose to go with the Kodak EasyShare Digital Camera…

We thought you’d like to know that we shipped your gift, and that this completes your order.

He earned enough Bonus Coins to cash them in for this sweet little iPod!
Also, you can go here to see one ICSer blog about what he bought from the Bonus Store with his...

Hi ICS’er, ICS gives away cash all day long like no other site on the web. We are able to do this because we are a legitimate business. ICS is owned by AskYourTargetMarket.com, a new startup and exciting online market research service. We built and launched ICS more than a year ago and now AYTM is about to be fully launched into the world. We’re hoping that AYTM will be wildly...
We appreciate you!
The advent of this new year has gotten us thinking around here at InstantCashSweepstakes.com…As we all know, the economy is struggling to rebound. As Americans, we are all struggling to rebound, too, and our fighting, never-say-die spirit is evident.
InstantCashSweepstakes.com is not built to make you rich, and we never claim to do that. All we want to do is provide you with a fun,...

We have been trolling the Internet, looking for forums and message boards where you can register (for free), and post your referral link to ICS. You can write a short blurb about...

If you are experiencing this problem, please write to us at instantcashsweepstakes@gmail.com and let us know which version of Internet Explorer you are running AOL on.
In the meantime, we encourage you to access ICS through a...

TechCrunch50 and ICS.com!
Hi InstantCashSweepstakes community!
We are coming to you live from San Francisco CA at the TechCrunch50 (http://www.techcrunch50.com/) web start-up conference. We were fortunate enough to be chosen to be in the famed DemoPit yesterday, the first day of the conference, and by all accounts, it was a resounding success!
So….to explain….InstantCashSweepstakes.com, all of YOU, were also...
Houston, we have a problem.....
We are slowly emerging from our troubleshooting/programming/putting-out-fires caves and looking around…
Well?
Have we weathered the storm? Do we still have a problem?
The problems seem to all have been resolved to the best of our ability and to the best of our knowledge.
One casualty of InstantCashSweepstakes.com 2.0, however, is Internet Explorer, version 6.
To those of you still...

"You play to win the game"....Herm Edwards
Nobody embodies that winning spirit more than Gregory F! He has made it a point to know and understand exactly how ICS works, and then made it his business to work every possible angle. As a result, he has 653 invited friends, which translates to INSTANT CASH! He wins when his friends win, and with that many friends, he has gotten more than $80 this month on MATCHING prizes alone! Want to see for...

Attention ICS Community!
Hello, ICSers!
Wow! I want to tell you all how impressed I have been (for the most part) with the quality of many of your surveys. There is an unending quantity, so you are keeping me busy, but there is definitely some good quality out there, too. So kudos to you!
Since we have so many new members since I last wrote, I want to reiterate some of the points to remember when writing and submitting...

Only 20 People so Far are eligible to win $1099!!!
How about those odds? Yep. Here we are less than 40 days away from the end of the sweepstakes and only 20 people have registered for the ICS tax cut $1099 sweepstakes and met the criteria of inviting 10 friends to join ICS. Obviously we’ve created the sweepstakes to grow our site and to reward those helping us do just that. Finding 10 friends to join ICS may be a big challenge but to...

Your Odds of Winning $1099 Are Unbelievable!
As I write this, we are two weeks into the $1099 Tax cut Sweepstakes which ends on 4/15/09. At this moment, 227 members have registered for this event BUT ONLY 12 ARE QUALIFIED TO BE SELECTED AS THE WINNER OF $1099.
Maybe our rules are too obtuse??? We felt it necessary to create a strong set of restrictions in order to prevent cheaters from un-leveling the playing field. If you are not a...
Now you can skip surveys that you don't want to...
The “skip” button has arrived at ICS. Use it sparingly because you lose 1 survey for that session for each use. Skip 5 surveys and you get none that session. It won’t show on surveys you that have previously answered nor on market research surveys once we launch that biz. I hope that you are all happy, David

The ICS $1099 Tax Cut Sweepstakes
Earlier today we announced our biggest sweepstakes ever, “The $1099 Tax Cut Sweepstakes.” (TCS) The purpose of this post is to explain the TCS in less formal words than he rules as laid out in detail on the TCS registration page. The TCS begins on 2/15 but was announced today so that you can begin to put yourself in a position to earn “chances” (think “lottery tickets in the TCS”). The purpose...
