Your Chance To Win Cash With Typo Buddy

by Mark on July 5, 2008

This one contest is rather unique and actually fun to enter. It’s being held on Typo Buddy and you could win some extra cash.

>> Contest link <<

Here are the prizes:

  • First place winner: $25 ebay gift certificate
  • Second place winner: $10 ebay gift certificate
  • Randomly selected winner: $25 ebay gift certificate

If you find a funny misspelling, enter it in the contest. If it gets voted on as the funniest, then you win that $25 ebay certificate!

What is Typo Buddy?

It helps you score great savings on products whose titles have been misspelled on ebay and Craigslist. Why is that important? Well, if you’re selling a “kar” and someone searches on “car”, then chances are you aren’t going to make a sale because most people are going to being searching on the right spelling.

But with Typo Buddy, you can search on the correctly spelled word and have it show you ways it has been misspelled on ebay and Craiglist, which means you now have a way to reduce the number of people looking for the same thing. This enables you to either bid among fewer bidders (in ebay’s case) or find the product on Craigslist and make the purchase because someone else is searching on the correctly spelled term.

I’m a little confused. Aren’t they all “randomly selected” which would just make that a 3rd place winner?

@Dennis
Yes, randomly selected, but the third winner would be under a different set of criteria.
