Paid surveys are a decent source of extra money in a few cases, most sights are just about doing offers and such. My girlfriend and I have gotten some checks mostly 5 and 10 dollars at a time. I don't think you could ever make a living doing surveys. But you can make some $ and get some free products too.

Yes. I do them. I skip over the ones that are for free stuff and only do the ones that are for cash. You don't get paid a lot, but you can make a little bit. Most of the ones that pay cash pay somewhere between $2 and $5. Occasionally you get lucky and get a $25 one, but they are really picky about who qualifies to do them.

I have been trying to make money for quite sometime now .. 90% turned out to be scam.
After months of research and experience, these are some that REALLY work ..
Their payouts maynot be as huge as the scams promise, but they pay

I think for the most part a scam, but there are some who pay at least a little bit. The best I'm aware of is Pinecone Research. They limit when you can sign up but it's worth watching for.
Some other ways you can look into making money without an investment (other than myLot of course):

i tried this guys, like the "free gas", "$100 visa", etc.
well, after you've honestly and sincerely answered the survey questions, you won't get to the claim-your-prize part coz the program is an endless loop (sob). so you keep on returning to the previous page with questions you've previously answered (huhuhu). ergo, you won't get what you expect to get (waaaaaaaaaah!).
the most you can get from it are free travel magazines and free small sample packs of newly endorsed products (sigh).

I tried doing it through panda reserch one time b/c they were suppose to be the top rated but everything I tried doing a survey on wanted $/ like I did one on blockbuster that pd like $30 but you had to subscribe to blockbuster monthly fees and you have to make $100.00 before they will even pay you

Yes, Panda is a ripoff. Never do surveys for a site that requires you to buy anything. There are legitimate sites that don't require you to do anything but take surveys. The ones I do don't even ask you to get referrels. They just want you to do surveys.

yea i didnt add panda research on my site they're nearly impossible to reach the 100 dollar pay out unless you spend nearly that much on trials.

The few survey sites I do know of dont offer cash, they offer prizes. The point values for good prizes take a while to reach.

...is a free place where you earn "points" for doing surveys which you redeem for cash or prizes..it is a little slow depending on what surveys you qualify for..however in a couple months I have earned 20 bucks and they did pay me right away via checks in the mail. The trick to it I guess is to make sure you present yourself as a large diverse family in order to qualify for the most and a variety of surveys.

I belong to many, many survey panels and everyone that I am on have paid me. I also receive product samples to test in my own home and receive incentitives for doing so. It is very rewarding to get paid for your opinion! As a matter of fact I received 4 checks today alone. This is all without referals too. 1 check for $6.00 another for $6.20 and 2 different checks for $2.00 I also just got a straightening iron from Amazon .com that I purchased using egift cards I earned taking surveys.

I haven't, tried for a couple of months, too much work for little pay. If you are looking for a legit company to work at home you may like to try http://healthybetterme.com
I'm with Stayin Home and Lovin It! and they are partnered with a wellness company that is 21 years old and in good standing with the BBB. Has the potential to become a full income in time, but not a get rich quick thing.
