Iconshot Prediction contest - For Cash and Prizes

I just came across a cool website that awards you cash and prizes for correctly predicting an event (i.e. what will be the #1 movie in the US box office on a particular weekend). It's free to sign up and there are new contests weekly. Starting in March, they will have a monthly auction which you can use the credits that you earn from correct predictions and referrals to bid on prizes.
Quote:
Every month, an item will be auctioned off like Games, Movies, Digital Cameras, iPods, GPS Navigators, DVD/Bluray Players, XBOXs, PS3s, Widescreen TVs, etc.
The google ads on the site is what the site uses to fund the prize and cash giveaways. This site was launched recently and is a lot of fun.

Cool new question

Hey,

looks like there is a new question!!

this week's question is "What spot will Beyonce’s Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) single be at on the Billboard Hot 100 on Wed, Dec 24, 2008?"

actually not a bad question if you ask me!

the song is at #2 right now.... hmm.... what to guess

That's awesome but I'm sure there are limits. Somehow I don't think we'll see a BMW auctioned off anytime soon. Wouldn't mind a GPS Navigator though. Hope that's the first item auctioned. Better stay on top of the predictions though. Looks like that's the best way to get those credits you need to bid with.

Just got an email from them asking members for suggestions with what auction items they should put on the block. Members are asked to post on their blog. I just posted gps navigator not too long ago.
