Thrifty Charity
There are plenty of ways to be charitable online, even if you're on a tight budget. Here are a few of my favorites:
1. FreeRice.com - This site lets you donate rice through the UN World Food Program by playing a multiple choice guessing game. The default game is vocabulary-based, but you can click "Change Subjects" at the top left and select other subjects like multiplication, world capitals, and chemical symbols. In a small way, this site allows you to improve yourself and improve the world at the same time.
2. The Breast Cancer Site - This site lets you click a button and earn money for free mammograms for women in need. The money is earned via ad revenue. There are other sections of the site devoted to other causes such as literacy, hunger, child health. After you click the donate button on any of the sites, you can scroll down and see a graph of how much charity had been earned for that day.
3. Kiva.org - This site allows you to make loans to entrepreneurs in developing countries. To quote the website's "About" section: "...You are helping a real person make great strides towards economic independence and improve life for themselves, their family, and their community."

October 2008 Earnings
Cash Crate - $30.05
Chillin' Cash - $19.33
Cash Lagoon - $10.00
Total for October - $59.38
This month, offers were slow and I was busy/lazy. I did amass enough points buy another referral on Chillin' Cash.
There were some changes in payment methods recently. Cash Crate reintroduced Paypal payments, and Chillin' Cash upped their payment processing speed. Definitely some good changes for us folks who don't like waiting for a check.

Offer Crediting Tips
On Cash Crate, Cash Lagoon, and many other GPT sites, there are user forums that contain many helpful tips for using their respective sites. Many times, if you're having a specific problem, you can search the forum for posts by other people who have had similar issues, and see the advice others gave them. As a last resort, if your problem seems to be unique, you can make a post of your own to get the help you need.
One issue a lot of people have questions about is how to get offers to credit reliably. From my own reading of the Cash Crate and Cash Lagoon forums, as well as helpful blogs and YouTube videos, here are some tips if you are having trouble getting offers to credit.
1. Take it slow. Don't amass a huge amount of pending offers all at once. Do a few at a time, wait for them to credit, and then do a few more. Try to keep your pending offers under $5, or at very least, under your earned amount. Don't forget to clear your cookies with CCleaner between offers.
2. Do it right. Proceed through the entire offer to the "Congratulations!" page. Sometimes it is suggested that you do side offers, and it doesn't hurt to do so, especially if they are email submits. However, the main thing is to get through the entire offer. Some types of offers may credit only a few pages in, but each type is different, so it's safest to do them all consistently. It's also been suggested that crediting success can be assured by leaving the "Congratulations!" page up on your screen for a minute or two, and by clicking on two or more of the offers on the end page.
3. Be realistic. No matter what you do, some offers simply will not credit. Don't let this discourage you. If you're having trouble, take a break for a day or two. Since this process is on the internet, there are all sorts of minor influences that might cause problems even if you do everything right. Don't stress over it! That's a good thing about these sites -- more offers are always rolling in.
