How many reviews do you do a month?

I order three items a day, every day, from Amazon Vine, which is
about 90 reviews per month. Amazon has rated me as one of their best
reviewers.

Do you get to choose what stuff you review or does Amazon? If you order
it, it sounds like you do.

But remember, this is all free stuff (up to $100 each) that NEEDS
reviews. They don't give you free stuff that doesn't need a review.

But that sounds like Amazon decides what to send you?

Funny thing about Amazon Vine is you can't return anything. It's
yours. <https://amazon.com/vine/about>

What do you do with the stuff you don't need? Yard sale?

Are you on Amazon (amazon.com) or Amazon Vine (amazon.com/vine)?

I'm on plain old Amazon. I didn't even know that Amazon Vine existed. I
had to Google it.

Here's more information about getting 3 items a day for free from
Amazon.

Dunno where I'd put all that extra stuff. I've been retired 32 years now
and would hate going back to work.

Each item can be up to $100 so that's up to $300 per day if you max
out. In one year, for example, that's $300x365 = about a
hundred-thousand bucks!

Sounds lucrative. Also sounds like a lot of work.

I'm only Silver but if I get gold, then it's 8 items a day of any
price. Completely free of initial cost, sales tax, and shipping.

Is it even possible use 8 items long enough to review them each day?
Perhaps I'm missing something...
