Lockerz is a website in which users use PTZ which they earn by watching videos , answering daily questions , shopping on the website and connecting with their friends, to win prizes absolutely 100% free. Or the user can use their PTZ to get massive discounts on products from the shop on the website. The user can get PS3 Consoles , Xbox 360's and Apple products such as iPod's and iMac's . When you sign up for the site you get 500 PTZ for free then you are allowed on to the website to earn some PTZ. If you invite 20 Users onto the website you receive Z-List Status which means you get double PTZ for everything that you do on the site.
You can also pay a very small charge of around $3.99 to get an Ultimate Wallpaper which when used can get you up to 4X your normal amount of PTZ! Also if you buy a Ultimate Wallpaper you will gain entry into a special redemption in which users log into the PTZ Place and chose which item they wish to receive. Redemptions used to be the only way you could redeem before the 24/7 Auctions were brought in but because there is only a limited Quantity of prizes Available to users which was meaning that all the prizes were Sold out within seconds.
If you really want a chance to get big prizes on Lockerz your going to have to have the time to be able to sit around and watch Videos in all your free time but if you don't have the time im afraid that your going to have to settle for smaller items such as T-Shirts and books as Lockerz is really busy and you don't have much of a chance of getting anything decent in the redemptions unless you are really fast on that keyboard and your mouse.
Overall Lockerz is an excellent site though as it has a really easy to navigate website design and the tasks that you have to take out to are really easy to do so if I had to give Lockerz an overall rating out of 10 I would have to give at a 7/10 .If I had to wish for one improvement to the website it would be for there to be better customer service as when you email to ask for help or to report a bug you usually in 9/10 occasions will get a Automated response from the company.
Look out for my review of Swagbucks next week!

An Insight into how Companys make money GIVING away Products!
People say everyday that there is NO such thing as Freebies. Why they say would people want to give stuff away for free what do they get out of it?
Well to answer their question Money!Now I know that most sound so stupid, firstly I say freebies which means no money is payed so how on earth can these people make money?
Well let's start with websites that list Freebies.There is a lot of them out their but a lot of them really are not legit but as for the legit ones they ,and I don't know if you know this ,are racking thousands of pounds/dollars in a Day and if you think about it its quite simple how they do it.These sites build up traffic and then company's PAY THEM to list their products on the website. So that's how easy it is. For every advertiser on their website they are making money. Then shove in a few Ads from adsense and you have the perfect cocktail for money making heaven. So you may now ask how do the company's make money?Well that's what im going to tell you!
After the company's have payed out hundreds for their websites to be listed on the big sites they need to work out some sort of master plan on how to make the money back.So guess what they do?Give away their Product!Now reading this you most think that they are off their mind but im going to tell you how they can make a big investment U-Turn straight into a BIG PROFIT .The company's have just gave away their product so their now losing even more but this is when the magic happens! Once a consumer has received a free sample and they really like it their going to go back and buy it aren't they?So the more samples that the company's give out the more money they are going to get back.
So that has been a brief insight into how websites and company's manage to make money from giving out freebies.
