This Happy Friday reader gets paid to exercise and you can too!🚶‍♀️

Wouldn’t it be amazing to get paid to take care of your health? Now you can!

This week’s Happy Friday reader, Lisa, wrote in to tell us about how you can earn gift cards to places like Amazon, Walmart, Starbucks, Ulta, Apple, Dunkin’, and more just for getting in your daily steps.

Sounds like an easy way to make a little money on the side!

Here’s how Lisa does it!

The Cashwalk app which pays you to walk your daily steps

“About a year ago I downloaded an app to my phone called Cashwalk. It keeps tracks of the steps I walk in a day. At the end of the night you will get a notification to remember to cash in all of your coins.

When you reach 5,000 count you can redeem for a $5 gift card. You can get a max of 100 coins a day which is 10,000 steps. But to get to that goal of earning rewards faster there is an option to play games or watch quick ads for extra coins.”

I always chose to click on the ads while I am wasting time waiting to pick up the kids from sports, or even sitting waiting at those doctor appointments! Any free time I try to get those bonus coins!

It has also kept me on track to push myself to get those max 10,000 steps a day which is also good for my health! You can choose whatever gift cards will fit your needs.”

Amazon Gift Cards in hand
For me it helps with my constant spending at amazon. So when I am in a pinch for those school snacks or even if I need a household product shipped the next day I can get it right from Amazon! So now when that Amazon driver shows up and my husband is home I don’t feel like hiding, these gift cards covered a good part of it and I am proud!”
