Free money tally—my March snowflake report

March was a great month for my snowflake gathering!

Here’s the rundown

• $125 –opened a Chase savings account using a code from a targeted mailer
• $58.76 –Amazon sales
• $25 –gift card promotion for test driving a Kia
• $20 –bonus gift card rebate for buying McAfee software

Total $228.76

My best month yet (thanks mostly to more free money from Chase Bank).

Here’s a refresher if you’re not familiar with what “snowflakes” are and why I’m tracking them.

February snowflake report

"A dolla make me holla"

If you read "Tracking my snowflake money," then you know I'm keeping track of all the extra money I can get to come my way this year.

Here's how I did in February

Amazon sales $.76 (I know, lame, March will be much better)

Rebate cards (moneymakers due to sending in regular rebate and "upgrade rebates," here's some info on the deal I did) $80

Staples MM $10.91

Total $91.67

Watch movies on-the-go for 99 cents

Nothing passes the time on a long flight better than a good movie.

Amazon Instant Video offers an everchanging list of $0.99 movies that you can download to your Kindle or iPad to watch when you are without a Wi-Fi connection, such as on an airplane.

If you rent, you'll have 30 days from when you rent to start watching, and once you start watching, most movies have a 24-hour window to finish watching. Once the rental is over, the movie will automatically disappear from Your Video Library.

Movies can be streamed as well, using a computer, tablet compatible HDTVs, Blu-ray players, or set-top boxes, but of course you need an Internet connection for that.

Here are some of the current most popular rentals that are available for $0.99 until tomorrow, August 5.

21 Jump Street 

The Dark Knight 

Batman Begins 

Friends with Kids 

American Reunion 

Lockout 

Mirror Mirror
