On the marketing end, businesses should jump on this. Not only are they getting advertising but there are specific products that you have to view from whatever company is featured that day. Then you are required to enter info off of those advertisements in order to solve the puzzle. I've played for about six weeks now and I have never had such a solid knowledge about products from Target, Macy's, Home Depot, or Amazon! On the consumer end, you're getting a chance to win some extra money and something to look forward to each monday...the start of a new Treasure Challenge for the week! The challenges are not easy to solve. I solved one right before Christmas and won the prize money, but I was skeptical about the site until this happened. I spent several hours one night researching, reorganizing search criteria, and even guessed wrong once before I submitted the final correct guess! If you like puzzles, you should play Treasure Challenge. If you like puzzles that let you win money, then you should definitely play. AND if you're a puzzle junkie like myself, you'll be addicted soon. The high of winning has drawn me back to their site for weeks now. My work week went ten times better because I felt so accomplished!! My best friend also won and though I was happy for her, I was also a little bit jealous :) As to the fast cash, let me explain a bit more. The way I understand it, after the Challenge is solved for the week, the site enters into FAST CASH mode. Every few hours, a new clue appears and whoever solves it first wins $200.00 (note this amount was increased from $100.00) I don't know about you, but during this recession I'll take a few moments to try and win a few more hundred dollars!!
