sendearnings.com just beware it is not really worth it. They pay you pennies for the surveys and by the time you make a dollar you have spent hours taking surveys. Some of them want you to try out new products read the fine print because often when you sign up to try the product, you also sign up for a subscription which you eventually get charged for.

I have done surveys on e-rewards for a few years. It is legit, but I think you need to be invited to participate. You "earn" money that can be redeemed for gift certificates, airline mileage or discount coupons. At the rate you "earn" money, you can't call it an income. I enjoy giving my opinion so I do a few of these surveys a week. You can set up your account to do as many or as few as you like. I have gotten airline miles and gift certificates and a $15 credit at Borders Books (but I had to be a member of the Border's Books loyalty program which was free)

I would say no. If it sounds too good to be true, then it usually is.

I've done e-rewards before just out of curiousity but it is mere pennies that are "credits" and to get anything you have to be online surveying all the time. I don't have the time to do that. My time = $$

I have done focus groups in person (you can only do about 2 a year) in the Dallas area. Still.....not much money but they can be interesting. You pick and choose your group. I pick ones that pay well. My last one was almost 2 hours and I got $250. Granted...not a money maker... especially by the time you drive to the Galleria area. I use it as a day for me....do the survey, go have lunch and shop.

Most of the surveys pay around $60-$100, there are occasional ones that are more. They are intersting because you are working with a marketing team in making their advertising effective and attractive from a consumer viewpoint. I was on the other end of this spectrum when I was in corporate marketing and working with focus groups for opinions.

I use e-Rewards and MySurvey. They are both free and don't spam you. If you are wanting to make a lot of money or get a lot of gifts, these won't be the websites for you. It can take a while to build up some points, but you'd be surprised how fast you can do it. e-Rewards is more limited when it comes to rewards, but I use them every year to redeem for Skymiles, so it is worth it to me. You can customize your preferences on how many survey requests you get a year. I have it set to maximum and I get an invitation for a survey at least once a week, if not two or more a week.

MySurvey is also really good and has sent me a bunch of product samples to try, completely free, no fine print. I have gotten packs of diapers, wipes, yogurt, formula, toilet paper, etc. You take a survey at the beginning to see if you're in the demographic they need, they send you the sample to use, and you take a survey at the end to tell how much you liked/disliked the product. MySurvey also just revamped their rewards. You can redeem points for a check or prizes. They have some really cool stuff on there, but I have found if you compare the price of the points for the reward to the price online, you'll usually find it cheaper online. For example, 1100 points=$10. I found a camera case that could be redeemed for 2200 points, so $20. I found it on Amazon for $13. So I bought it on Amazon, redeemed my points for cash and was still happy. These are not huge moneymaking sites for me, but I get enough survey invitations to keep them going. Hope you get some good sites.

I have been doing Epoll.com for about 4 years. Don't earn a lot about $50 every 3 months in gift cards or paypal BUT they are easy surveys that you get ###-###-#### pts per one and range from 2min -15 min at most.

Very easy. Fast on sending reward. No complaints.

Also I dont use google really anymore. Instead I use swagbucks you earn points for searching the internet like you would google and turn in for rewards. click on this link. You can refer friends and get points. http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/Arismama03

I love TreasureTrooper.com. It is very legit and, it is kind of fun because they have contests and treasure hunts that go along with it. I made $45 2 months ago and $63 last month by just playing around with it here and there. You could make $100 easily a month. It is nice just for some extra spending money. You can win prizes or use points to purchase gift cards and stuff on there too. And, you can make a very tiny amount extra by having referrals (can't be in same household). You do need to read through everything on the site and go through the forums to get some good tips. Let me know if you try it and have any questions.
