>How Paid Surveys and Focus Groups Helped Me Do Extra for the Kids’ Birthdays!!

>

So, thanks to Swagbucks,  Opinion Outpost, 20/20 Research and  Communispace, I got all of this for my kids’ birthdays and a little something for the newly done master bedroom -

for about $3.00 OUT OF POCKET.  

$42
$12 (free with Fisher Price purchase on Amazon- bonus!)
$40
$12
$25

$25 for plug in warmer and bars

(scentsy bars -3 of them)

I can tell you I spend maybe 10-15 minutes per day doing paid surveys/focus groups IF that. Depends on the week.  I got $12 in Opinion Outpost money in the past 2 days doing 2 surveys for them when I was nursing the baby.  Multi-tasking pays, for sure!!  If you are questioning “is it worth it really??”  I got all of this almost for free for playing around online while feeding the baby, often in the wee hours of the morning when no one else is awake.  Sure, it was my time, but I wasn’t doing anything else, and my kids are going to have some awesome surprises they may not have had otherwise when their birthdays come around (soon).

  1. >I spend a lot of time during the summer participating in rewards programs, entering sweepstakes & blog giveaways, and taking surveys. I swear by it. My two favorite survey companies are Survey Spot (been taking their surveys for a couple months now and have $46 in my paypal account from them!) and GlobalTestMarket, it takes a little longer to cash out but when you do it's $50!! I also highly recommend the following:MyPoints.com – Earn points for shopping online & checking your email! I haven't spent on dime with MyPoints and I have 7,572 points!

  2. >Donda- The surveys are simple. They email you when surveys are available, and you click on the link for ones you want to go for. Opinion Outpost has been the best for me results wise, to date. You won't always qualify but I find I qualify more than half the time with them. You do want to be SURE that when you sign up for a survey site that you fill out all of the profiles- then your survey offers are more likely to be matches. As for Swagbucks, I use their toolbar (well, now we are using Google Chrome so I have the swagbucks extension or something) and when I want to check email- I enter in "yahoo mail" or "facebook" "twitter" even my blog. Yesterday just by checking email I got 20 Swagbucks. It was a lucky day.
