OK, I do the piddly little surveys and every few months I cash in and get $10. It's my fun money, I put it in a separate account and use it when my friend and I want to go to lunch. I'm not paying bills with it - I'd be in the poor house if that were the case!!! It's just for fun. Well, today I got one of my checks from a survey site, I was expecting $10 and it was over $50!!!! Now, I have no clue how long it's taken me to get enough points to cash out, but it sure was a nice surprise!!! I think this is the first time I cashed out with this survey site - the payment was quick and much higher than I expected. WOOHOO!!! It's paying for a day with my friend!!!

bbsbeesknees - if you're really interested in creating a reliable supplimentary income, check out my website - www.HappyWithSuccess.com. That's my real money-maker. Like you said, this other stuff is good pocket money, but paying the bills is where it counts!

Congrats on the nice check! I know i always save my balance up on the sites i do. That way if i ever need money for something then i'll have it. What site was it that you got the $50 from?

I always cash mine out as soon as I am able - then I put it into my savings (unless I need it right away).
The site I got it from this time was Global Test Market. I can send you an invite if you PM me with your e-mail address.

If you send me your e-mail address, I'll be able to invite you to the survey sites - just approve my friends request and then you can PM me.

Wow, that sounds great. I have been trying to save the money I make online, but we keep needing it for bills, so no treats for me. Oh well, soon we will have paid all of these bills off, and we can have more fun. Good thing you get to have fun, though!

Well, it's not like I'm making a fortune, but every little bit does help! I actually looked back and found that the last time I cashed out with them was 6 month ago and it was also over $50. So it's really only $100/year but I'll take it!

Yeah, I'm in 2 others that are usually "Thank you for your time but you don't qualify" and they take a while, but this is one that at least gives you some credit for not qualifying.

Well, we're not supposed to just post web sites just to promote them, but since you ask, I can give you a couple that I do
lightspeedpanel.com
your2cents.com
The one that just paid me and another one I have gotten checks from have referral programs, so if you PM me with your e-mail address, I can invite you to those.

Congradulations!! glad to hear about the large paycheck you recieved :) I currently have earned...12 cents in my paypal from my online cashmaking, but I'm not giving up :) Being a teen and from Canada makes it VERY hard to find surveys or offers (my parents would not appreciate getting a bunch of junk mail from these stupid things)to do, so I usually end up doing the worst paying things, rofl. Like clixsense and myLot. But myLot seems the best option, you can actually get paid depending on the amount of work you do, but myLot is also FUN :)

Yes, all my internet "money" is just my fun money! I do something I have fun with and get paid for it :)

Congratulations on the paycheck. Perhaps you can start consider doing this as regular side income, I know some friends who earned considerable income doing surveys, pay-per-post, freelance copywriter for websites. There are lots of money-making opportunities from the Internet, $50 there, $50 here, it will add up eventually and you can do much more with it instead of just paying for lunch :)

Oh, I don't have the time for all that. I'm a full-time CPA and have a home-based business that keeps me and my husband busy right now. My internet money is just for fun stuff and that's fine with me!
