In case you missed it, this month we announced our exciting new Refer a Friend contest. Just refer your friends to the Buxr community, and you could win fabulous cash prizes!
Our deal contests need more participants to judge on the value of deals you guys are submitting and by inviting new friends you help us make these contests more meaningful.
As of today, we are almost half way through the contest with no qualified referrals. This is bad news for us, but good news for you because winning a Buxr contest has never been so easy. Just referring a few friends might be enough for you to win this month’s $150 first prize!
We’ve made referring friends easy with many options such as ‘Share a Deal’ email, the Buxr badge, a text link, or our cool widget. Click here to see more details about our contest, and find out how you can participate and win!

They say good friends are priceless, at Buxr we think “Good Friends” are worth up to $150 a month! 
We are pleased to announce our latest contest: Refer a Friend. Just refer your friends to the Buxr community, and you could win fabulous cash prizes! By inviting new friends you help spread the word about Buxr, and make the contest results more meaningful.
Participation is easy, simply email your friends with a referral link, and you’ll get contest credit when they become eligible members. Beware, by friends we don’t mean your brother in the next room, or your live-in girlfriend. No friends in the same household please. If you have a website or blog, you have more options to refer members – the Buxr Badge, a text link or our cool widget.
The person with the most “Good Friends” (eligible referrals) at the end of the month will win the grand prize. Since we like to spread the wealth at Buxr, we will also be awarding prizes to the second and third runner up! See the contest rules for more details on how our new contest works and what your friends need to do to become your “Good Friends”.
With the Refer a Friend contest, the Best Daily Deal contest and the Monthly Deal contest we are giving our members more ways to win than any other deal site in the land!
So please help support Buxr community, and refer a friend!

Well, my name is Samantha but most of you probably know me as Puhsyxpink. I am a 23 year old mother of 2, who searches, posts and submits freebies and deals online. Not too long ago I registered with a deal sharing site, Buxr.com and won their monthly prize!
As I said I normally look for deals, but Buxr.com gives you great incentive in sharing your findings with others. It’s competitive and other users let you know if there are any flaws in your submissions. They are honest and actually check it out to make sure it is correct and works as described. If visitors are just browsing the site, they aren’t being misled. I think Buxr.com is an awesome site for those looking to save money. No, I don’t think Buxr.com is an awesome site, I know Buxr.com is an awesome site! The admins are active and friendly. They respond to your concerns and questions promptly. They take your ideas and advice into consideration, and fix things as needed. The other users, post amazing deals and are also considerate and respectful to others. Buxr.com is a community, everyone is involved together.
I received my monthly winnings, a check for $300, in the mail. After cashing it I debated on what to do with it. Save it, spend it… and if I spent it, what would I use it on. After a ton of back and forth decision changing, I decided to spend it. Why not? I did spend time during each day and earn it. I spent it on bills, diapers and a night out on the town. My daughter was born in May, so I hadn’t really had a chance to go out and have a good time. I may be a mother, but let’s not forget I am 23 years old. I went out with a couple friends and had a great time at this local club called The Mix One 6. It was definitely long overdue!
And lastly, I want to say THANK YOU, to everyone who thought I submitted good deals and voted positively. At times it was a struggle with competing with others to post good findings. It was stressful at times, but it was all worth it when you belong to something that rewards you with use of a site that can save you money, prizes for participating and meeting some great people!

If you happened to visit Buxr.com in the past month or so, you probably have noticed that we have added quite a bit of functionality to make bargain hunting more fun. Today we are happy to announce one more addition that will hopefully make your visits to Buxr.com even more exciting!
Daily Contest
If you have a hot deal to share, you can do so by using this link (you need to create a free Buxr account if you don’t already have one). Once your deal gets published, it will become eligible for a vote. If your deal gets the most votes during the day, you will win the daily contest.
We currently give away $10 daily, however as more people participate and more deals get published, we will be awarding more prizes.
Monthly Contest
In addition to our daily cash prize we are also giving away a monthly grand prize which the community member with the most points will be awarded at the end of the month. Here is how our monthly contest works.
Earn Points by Submitting Deals
Community members can earn contest points for submitting deals. If you submit the best deal, you will earn 5 points, if you submit the worst deal you will lose 5 points.
Earn Points by Voting on Deals
One more way to participate in our monthly contest is by voting on deals. At the end of the day we will pick the best and worst deal as voted on by the community. Here is how you can earn or lose points:
Community Picks the Monthly Prize
We offer 3 monthly prize options for your vote: Nintendo Wii, Apple iPhone, and $300 cash prize. The prize option that receives the most votes will be given away at the end of the month. You can see the prizes and vote for your choice at our monthly contest page (click on “pick the prize!” link at the top).
For more information on how the contests work, please refer to the Contest Rules, or drop us a note using this from if you don’t find an answer to your question.
