what does it mean on those offers when they say you have to complete sponsor offers? What do you have to do?

Question

You know those offers for "free" tvs, playstations, computers, restaurant gift certificates, etc., where you have to complete various "offers" before they send out the free item? What are those offers? What are you obligating yourself to? How much do you end up spending in order to get the free thing? Thanks.

Answer 1

In my experience, they make you answer a very long series of personal questions, giving away more info than I like to give, and then they make you buy something. I don't recommend giving away all that personal info, or buying things you don't need.
