Has anyone on Hatrack ever been paid to advertise something on their car with a car wrap?

I ask, because I was thinking of doing it for extra cash. I drive a lot, and I own my own car, thought it would be a nice bit of bonus money to help with the bills. The site, Car Wraps seems legitimate. I checked the BBB, and they had no entries for it.

Does anyone know about it? If it is a scam? If anyone has done it I would love to hear stories on if it worked out or not before I get tangled up in all this. Any and all information would be appreciated, as I would love to not get ripped off. Thanks guys.

I applied to something like that when I was a college student. The application was free but I never heard back from the advertisers. [Smile]

Yeah, that's why you should do the free ones, rather than paying 30 bucks.

That's why I love ya Kayla. [Smile]

Lyrhawn, don't forget to post a picture of your car on foobonic. [Wink]

I would think if you live in a larger city, or suburb, you'd have a better shot at being picked. That and how much you drive.

Like, we live in a town of a few thousand and my husband drives all of about a mile and a half to work, so I doubt anyone would pay us to advertise, though he could park where everyone on the highway would see his car as they drove by. . .

What is foobonic and why would I post a pic of my car on it?

Posted by Stan the man (Member # 6249) on :

This is foobonic. If ya happen to go this route the others would like to see how your car looks with the ad stuff.
