If you are least bit interested in gardening, do stop by at Sea View Park next to McDonalds for Horticultural Society’s Annual Flower Show which starts from today and will end on Sunday. You’ll get to see lots of exotic plants, plus if you want to buy something for yourself, you can get some really nice bargains on Sunday as well. Just try to come earlier in the day or be prepared to park a mile away from the entrance.

I found this site when I was going thru the stats in order to come up with “Weird Search Phrases for January”. Muftaa.com was a unique name and it attracted my attention.

I visited the site and its one of the countless sites that claims to offer free easy load to its user. Plus this month they are also giving free Nokia Phone away. While browsing thru, I came up with a familiar name in one of the winners’ list. I emailed my friend whose name was on the list to confirm whether he has received the prize and to my surprise he actually has received free mobile credit. That’s why I decided to make this site the Site of the Day.

There are a number of options to qualify for your freebies. One is weekly where a user participates in different surveys and is automatically qualified for a lucky draw that takes place at the end of the week. 5 winners win Rs50 mobile phone credit each week.

Then there is a Maximum number of survey winner. Each week the person who has participated in most survey wins Rs50 credit.

Monthly contest is basically inviting 5 of your friends to their site and qualify for the lucky draw. This is the big fish as this month they are claiming to give a Nokia 1202 cell phone.

Lastly there is a Valentine’s Day contest going on where you share your thoughts about Valentine’s day and qualify for yet another lucky draw for free phone credit.

Check it out, it’s worth it since there’s no payment involved from the user so there’s nothing to lose and from what I know, it works.
