Ways to save and earn money...with Pingo

I have been exploring over the past few weeks various opportunities to earn money. One very interesting idea is being paid for blogs. This post is an example. By writing about products, in this case, Pingo pre-paid calling cards (see image below, and instant'>link) I am supposed to be paid, by Payperpost (link), who track the blogs (see track link)



The Pingo calling card is self explanatory and should save a good few dollars on those by making international calls to all the Caribbean friends in the US, UK, and Canada, not to forget those elsewhere in the Caribbean. Call the world for a few cents a minute and also get a US$ 5 card free to use to make calls. In a world where there are many different ways to make calls and save money, this has to be worth a try. There is already good competition for using voice over internet, with products like Skype and the possibilities with Yahoo and MSN Messenger, but a calling card is more convenient if you are without access to a computer. Check out Pingo and see if it works for you.

When you sign up you receive US$ 8 in FREE Calls! There are also features such as Pingo Business & Family Plan, where you can go global, with no equipment to purchase just easy billing and management with amazing bundled savings. Sounds good to me.
