You can't get something for nothing, apparently, but you might get something for some referals. I've signed up for one of these free games console websites - you refer people who need to take out a free Love Film trial or some similar offer, and then with 11 referals, you supposedly get an XBox 360 Elite. I'm skeptical, but willing to give it a try - if it gets me a £200 console, then I'm all for it!

It'd be poor form to post a gratuitous referal link here in the Pie and Piston, and I don't want to get myself banned, so it's relegated to my profile. Has anyone signed up for one of these sites and actually got the "free" console? Or is it all a big con?

I have heard that they work but would be a little scpetical myself.

Neither is working as a commission-only sales agent to earn one from a website, 'free'.

Exactly, and you'll get the console this side of Christmas

Neither changes the fact that I don't have any money to spend. At least this way I don't have the Mrs passing a veto on a purchase smile

Is your mobile phone contract up for renewal? Probably an easier way to get 'free' console??

It's up for renewal in October. You mean by going through Carphone Warehouse or something like that? Actually, I was thinking about trying to screw Orange for a Samsung Tocco
