Kraft Will Pay You to Not Make Cheesecake This Christmas

“You can earn $20 by not making cheesecake,” sounds like an internet scam, but thanks to the current cream cheese shortage, it’s actually true.

How does it work? On December 17 and 18, log on to spreadthefeeling.com at 12 p.m. EST, and make a dessert reservation. There will be 10,000 rewards offered on the 17, and 8,000 more released on the 18.
