There are many ways to get free things online and if you want to get a free PS3 there are options as well.
The truth is since the PS3 is one of the hottest gaming systems out there many web sites offer it as a prize or reward.
They know it's hot and they know it will attract people.
 One good question is, What do I have to do to get a free PS3? It is actually quite brilliant how these offers work.
What happens is there are many companies out there that offer free offers and trial offers for their products.
They think that if they can get their product in someone's hands the person will want to keep it.
They, of course, need a way to get their product into the household.
Now there are web sites that are paid, big money actually, by these companies to list their offers in hopes of getting people to sign up for their offers.
As an incentive for users to sign up for the offers these sites offer prizes like PS3, iPod, Macbook and even cash.
They can afford to do this because the companies are paying them a lot of money so they still make a profit.
The sites, called referral sites, have certain requirements for each prize but usually if you have 3 or four friends that want a PS3 you can pull it off in almost a week.
It comes down to completing a few often free but sometimes really low cost offers and then getting a few more people to do the same.
So yes, you can get a free PS3 online and it actually takes a lot less work then you may think.
It usually winds up costing a fraction of the retail cost.
Sweet deal.
