Got a surprise in the mail today

I did this product use at home survey and I tested a product and then every 2 weeks I got a survey to fill out on how I was liking the product. The survey just wrapped up almost two weeks a go so I was not expecting payment this soon. Today when I went to the mailbox there it was though my $40 compensation for doing the 3 short surveys and trying their great product. I love when I get opportunities like that.

That is awesome! I am always too scared to try products I always worry they will charge me for something. I do however do pinchme where all you have to do is a short questionnaire for products but they are by know means full size products but at least they are decent size.

@krazykatlady That comment reminded me I missed the PinchMe stuff today as well! I just got on and was able to get the last two things offered. Hey two is better then none. I signed up for Bzzagent years ago but never did anything with it for some reason. I don't do many surveys other then the ones that come in my email from quickreward or mypoints.

I am a member of clixsense reserach so ever so often I will get lucky and get something like this but it is rare indeed. I am on pinchme too, but I seldom get any "pinches" Tomorrow is release day but I usually miss it. I am also on Bzzagent and Smiley360 out of them Bzz is where I get the most luck. The only other survey site I do is ACOP but it is slow paying but the samples when you do a qualifier survey is full size as well. The best survey site is Pinecone Research but I am no longer a member there.

Sounds like you have found a good place to do surveys. I have been a member of a product testing site for a long time and have received a few products to try. One was an electric toothbrush that is fabulous. But never received a monetary compensation.

@krazykatlady Bzzagent is where I got the toothbrush. I have had very few campaigns in the past year. I did report negatively on a couple, but I thought an honest opinion was what they wanted and that is what I gave.

@ElusiveButterfly That worries me about doing the reviews, I'd like to give honest feedback but I do worry if I give negative it will hurt my chances. You were lucky getting a toothbrush. I get a campaign at least monthly but they are usually food campaigns lol. :D I like them though cause most of them are for Kroger and that is where I shop

I get them ever so often. I am actually only doing clixsense research right now, which is where I scored this "at home use" test. I used to do Pinecone research I like it a lot better but Oct 2014 I was testing 2 or 3 products and before I could do their follow ups for them, I spent a month in the hospital and when I got back they removed me from the panel which is understandable since I could not follow through with the 2 or 3 things I was testings follow ups. I did contact to find out why I was no longer getting surveys and Karen messaged me back they'd removed me. :( I have tried other sites but other than Clixsense research and used to be Pinecone I get nowhere with them Acop has good surveys but it's payment is almost not. It takes months and months to get. I am 4 months into waiting on my 4th payment from them. I also do sites like bzzagent and smiley360 but mostly I do bzzagent I don't get much with smiley360 I just love trying new products for free who doesn't. I would have enjoyed a new toothbrush. :)

That is awesome. I would be interested in doing product testing. I have a couple of times, and I was introduced to them through a regular survey site. But the opportunities seem few and far between.

Me too. They are way too few and far in between. I got this one through a regular survey site too.

It was just a few short questions every other week so it did not even take an hour of my time, but thanks. :)
