I'm taking the day off

For the first time in a while, I've taken a day off from work during the week, after a few days of demanding work schedules that needed me to stay up late several evenings. Because my income depends on how many clients I can attract at once, I can't afford to take regular vacations.
I slept in a little longer today because I had the day off from work. About ten a.m., at the earliest. Instead of eating my brunch as soon as I woke up, since it was Ramadan, I did my hygiene instead. As soon as I turned on my laptop, I headed to a site where visitors get paid to enter a captcha code. I've wanted to give it a shot, but work has kept me from doing so.
3 cents was the best I could get after spending two hours there. It took me a total of 800 captchas to get these rewards. Considering the time and effort involved, I'll only do it sometimes. Having a little extra cash is never a bad thing. Have you ever used a website like this before? How did it go for you, if at all?
It was time to log off the website and go back on with myLot. I'd been meaning to respond to each and every one of the responses I'd received, and today I finally got around to it. My spare time today allowed me to keep up with a slew of new and intriguing discussions. My favorite topics include the meals that myLotters have. I like reading them because they give me ideas for new recipes I may try with the ingredients we have in our kitchen.
How do you typically spend your days off?

I try to spend it outside with my family if plausible.

It is indeed great to spend the day outside with your loved ones especially when the weather is nice. Wishing you a nice day ahead, Toni

@thehazelsister Thank you. But it's evening time already. And I believe it is the same in your case very soon. An hour maybe.

Glad that you've got the day off. I only do MyLot and some surveys.

@thehazelsister Hi there! I do all sorts but I've never heard of Crowdtap. I do Toluna, Ipsos, myiyo, Opinion Outpost, etc.

Hello, Sharon! What surveys do you do? I wish I could join Crowdtap but unfortunately it's not available in my country.

This also sounds like how I spend my day off on most days! Lazing around is the highlight of it

I like watching movies on my spare time, too. It's easier now than ever to select what we want to watch as there are streaming services available

Do you think it was worth spending two hours and earn just 3 cents not to speak of the fatigue - just saying

It says that users may earn more if they use the software provided by the website, but I haven't tried it. As for now, those 3 cents are far from worth it

I try to be productive That's one of the charms of working for yourself: you have the freedom to decide when you work.
