Survey Sites

Surveys :

Please remember No survey sites should require you to pay for a membership or require payment to fulfill a survey.

For every survey taken with their site they pay very well and you always qualify (my favorite part), none of that getting 80% through only to be turned down. It is my favorite survey site out there and 100% legit, the only emails you will receive from them are survey invitations, no junk mail.I typically get 2 surveys a week, some may get more or less, it depends. They will also give you the chance to test out products from their surveys! This part is something you have no control over, answer the surveys completely and honestly and maybe you’ll be lucky to test a product and really get your voice heard.


(They only have open registration every so often)


Opinion Outpost

One of my favorite sites to use and one of the few legit ones out there.

They score their surveys on a point system, typically ranging around 20pts each. With their point system every 10 points equals $1. So if you take a 20pt survey you make $2. The program lets you cash out at a minimum of 50pts.

There are a few ways to cash out :


Request an Amazon gift card – This can be in any amount 50pts and over, so if you have 128 points you get to cash out for $12.80! The best thing about their Amazon cash out program is you get the code immediately. There’s no 15 to 30 day wait, once you submit for it you’ve got the code!


Request a check – This can also be in any amount 50pts and over. If you would rather have a check sent over Amazon this is the method to use. It typically takes 4 to 8 weeks for processing and delivery.

The Pros :
Earn rewards/points quickly! Your points quickly add up to a cash out amount.

Surveys are easy and different, you don’t have the same 20 questions in different forms in one survey like a lot of them.

The Cons :
Like any survey site, you don’t qualify for every survey offered. But the plus side to this is if you don’t qualify they will let you know and not allow you to go through the entire survey before turning you down.


To be honest with you, when I first joined Toluna I couldn’t stand it. For the longest time I would get 90% through a survey and then be denied and not recieve any points. This really irked me because I would spend 20min or so taking these surveys and make nothing for it! So I quit for quite a few months, I didn’t accept any surveys they sent me.

A little while later I decided to give them another shot and this time they had changed some things around, all of a sudden I started being able to complete surveys! And if I was denied, it happened within’ the first few questions so I didn’t waste my time with it.


I have cashed out twice with them for $20 each time (60,000 points) Their system is scored on a point system. Surveys will range anywhere from 900 points to 15,000 points. It really depends on the depth of the survey! They make payments by check or paypal, I’ve used both methods. Check payment took about two months and paypal takes a few weeks… so I recommend using Paypal!

Last year I would not have recommended this survey group but now i am satisfied with them and enjoy it! It’s worth the effort now if you’re looking for a new survey site or just want to make some extra income.

Mega Swagbucks Friday! 10/1

This Post May Contain Affiliate Links : Disclosure Policy
It’s Mega Swagbucks day! What does that mean? You can earn double, triple or more on your regular swagbucks searches!
What is Swagbucks?
How it works :

For random searches that you do through their page or toolbar, they will give you what’s called swagbucks. These can be redeemed for gift cards or tons of other prizes. I prefer the $5 Amazon Gift Card they have, it seems to be the best deal on there. And I can let my amazon money pile up until I am ready to go shopping!

Ways to earn :

Search - you earn random swagbucks for searches either from their site or toolbar

Toolbar – for having the toolbar installed you will be randomly awarded swagbucks just for signing on!

“Swaghunts” – they will hide random codes periodically on their twitter, facebook, blog, toolbar, any of the above. You find the code and enter it into their site to redeem for even more swagbucks.

Surveys – Check your Survey page every day to see what 15min to 20min surveys they have available, you can earn 150 swagbucks+ on these and they are credited to your account immediately.
Special offers – once a week they will post up a new set of special offers on their site. You scroll through the offers (you don’t have to complete any of them) and just for looking they will give you swagbucks!
Refer a Friend – When a friend signs up under you you get a swagbuck every time they do! Up to 1,000 swag bucks. How cool is that?

I have been with swagbucks since probably October of last year and have redeemed 15 $5 Amazon cards.. which means for pretty much no effort I have gotten $75 in Amazon gift cards!

If you’d havn’t yet, sign up for swagbucks, you’ll even be given 30 swagbucks just for signing up!

Nielsen Homescan Still Open

This Post May Contain Affiliate Links : Disclosure Policy
Don’t forget about the Nielsen HomeScan Program still accepting new applicants!

- Consumer research company for your grocery and household items.

How does it work?
- They send you a small scanner with a booklet of your local stores, you scan those stores into the scanner system.
- After each grocery trip you scan your groceries into the scanner, if you shop locally at the stores they have in your area then you only need to scan items and insert what coupons you used. At the end you give a total ammount spent. If you shop at stores not local to you, you do have to enter prices. (I don’t shop at stores by my house so I had to enter all prices manually for mine)
 
What do you get for doing this?
- They will send you out a catalog with your scanner. You earn so many points a week and misc. points for surveys and other deals on their site. After a certain amount of points you can redeem them for household items, gadgets, whatever.
 
- On top of the catalog they also send out random freebies just for being a member!
If you have the time, this is a good program to use! (If it’s not for you, you can simply repackage it and send it back at no cost to you)

Join Nielsen HomeScan and start earning free stuff! 

 
(If you don’t qualify on the above link, you may qualify here)
