Just a suggestion, but why not try for the Full Tilt freerolls?  They pay out in tournament dollars and cash.  Smallest amount seems to be $1 TD.  All you have to do is play solid poker.  Nothing fancy, just solid.  Keep it simple, you can get a little fancy at the final table, but still, guage your opposition and decide if it's a good idea.

An odd thing about freerolls and low stakes MTT's is that you sort of have to play bad poker to survive.  Sometimes it's a lot smarter to allow yourself to be a calling station.  Just calling controls the pot size and saves chips.  Let the others do the work for you.  It doesn't work for the entire tournament but has saved my butt more times than I care to admit.

Almost nitty hand selection + tight, solid, simple and at tiimes passive play really does seem to pay off rather well in these "events".  Just give it a try and see if once you get the hang of it, winning a few bucks at a time doesn't come easily.  The hard part isn't getting the seed money, it's hanging on to the money and catching a good windfall to really boost your BR.  That was Chris' problem too, just getting one really good win.  That's the only thing we all need to get off and running.
