I was once fortunate enough to be a part of Pine Cone Research. It was wonderful! I loved receiving those wonderful $3.00 checks in the mail on a weekly basis. Unfortunately, something happened to my computer and I was not able to log in for a long period of time and they deleted me. I have tried to reapply with them but have not had any luck. Who here is successful with earning money with online surveys and would you mind sharing your pages please.

I do most of my surveys at a site called InboxDollars. They dont pay much per survey - only $0.50. But there are other ways to earn on that site as well. By completing one of the surveys on the site, I was asked to join a forum to which I contribute about 1 hour of time each month. I get a $10 Amazon gift certificate each month from that. So it was definitely worth my time to fill out the initial survey! I am also part of a site called Valued Opinions, but I dont do as much on that site. There arent as many surveys and I often dont qualify. Those surveys do give you a bigger reward though. If you want any more information about either of these, let me know.

I love Inbox Dollars. I am almost to my first cashout with them of $30! I would suggest checking into SendEarnings as well. I can give you a link if you would like. I have already received a check for $30 from them as well. Which forum did you join that pays you $10 Amazon gift certificate monthly, if you don't mind sharing please.

I am part of Send Earnings as well. I joined them more recently. I should be getting my first check from Inbox Dollars next month (I requested it at the end of May) The forum I am part of doesnt accept referrals, unfortunately. Sorry.

I cant believe you actually make money online... Good for you... How much time do you invest to get paid 3.00 per week?

Not exactly sure I would say that I make at least $3 per week. I am with InboxDollars, SendEarnings and YouData. SendEarnings has paid me $30.00 already and I am almost to my payout of $30.00 with Inbox Dollars. YouData has paid me $5.00 so far deposited into my Paypal account. I have been paid here at MyLot as well. I am trying to get back into the swing of things with surveys and such. I hope I can reopen my old accounts or at least create new ones.

I have been doing those surveys, but don't you find them time consuming? I wonder how long it has taken you to accumulate the $30 dollars fron SendEarnings. I'm a new member at mylot, and I actually don't know much about the program in terms of earnings. So far I have commented on five topics which have generated 24 cents. How do one really make money on this site? I was told before I signed on that I could make between $40-50 monthly. But it seems like it would take forever to make a dollar.

bab3449 sometimes the surveys can be time consuming. Alot of places will tell you how long the survey will take and how much you stand to gain (points) from taking the survey. I try to judge if it would be worth my time at that moment. As far as MyLot, first of all, welcome to the site. I do not know how much other people make on here but I am not up to that much monthly. I try to post as often as I can and I try to keep the content up to good standards. I wish you much luck with your posting. Perhaps some of the veterans of the site will give you some hints and tips. I know if you look in the section called MyLot you will get quite a few of them! Good luck!

I do lots of survey sites. I do pretty good, but you will not get rich.

That is so true Thoroughrob. You will never get rich doing surveys. The extra cash does help though!

well this one has been quite a while ago. but had to read it and comment on it since i just now found it. my dil, used to do pinecone surveys and get checks and samples , all kinds of goodies in the mail. but ive never been able to join. every time i try they say they dont need anyone in my area anyway. lately ive been doing synovate. they have sent me samples. but havent gotten the points i want yet to cash out. its like 10 bucks per 12,000 points but i have 8,000 now. anyway, ive tried inbox dollars and really wonder if im ever going to get my check from them. they said i had to keep participating, etc. its been 2 mths.

I've had good luck with MySurvey and I-Say. As with most survey companies, the longer you are a member, the more (and better) surveys you get. I just joined CreationRewards, but I'm too new to tell you if they're any good or not.

I will check them out catdla1. I joined Creation Rewards a while back but after being offline for so long they cut my log in.

Have you tried emailing them? Their customer service has been terrific. I've only been a member for a little while, but I've emailed them with 2 questions. Both were answered within hours. As far as I'm concerned, they are a shining example of what customer service should be, especially for an online company.

I was a member with Pinecone Research to and I used to earn £4 for about a 30 minute survey. However, I missed a couple of surveys over the summer holidays and they stopped sending me surveys. There are lots of good survey sites out there - some of my favourites are Global Test Market, Crowdology (I think this is UK only) and You Gov.

Yes, if you do not keep current with Pinecone Research they will stop sending emails. I am also a member of Global Test Market. I really do like my survey sites!

Personally I have never had much Luck myself with online surveys. Most of the time I try entering the information, etc. and told I do not qualify or the places send so few of them it does not make it seem worth while. If you have been able to find something out there now that works for you, good but for me I quit looking some yrs. ago.

Here in the UK, my most trusted online survey site is Valued Opinions (there is also a Valued Opinions in the US). I think I have already earned (and spent) over 40 sterling pounds (approx $66) worth of gift certificates at amazon. They would consistently send e-mail invites for surveys (usually at the range of 0.50 pence to 1.50 sterling pounds).

Oh yes NurseMathilda the survey sites can be addicting. I am a member of several (over 20) sites. I enjoy earning money from them!

I do not think they are world wide. I think just in the US & UK. Plenty of other sites out there though! Good luck!

I have tried a few but I didn't know which ones to trust to be honest and I was worried about it but since some of you have had good experiences with some, I think I will try too! Thanks for your discussion! =)
