Merry Early Christmas to me!

Last night I got an email to do a survey with Clear Voice Surveys, a website I have been signed up with since earlier this year. I didn't qualify for this particular one but I decided to check my rewards balance. To my surprise I had over $10 which means I could redeem for something. There isn't many choices, just Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk gift cards, some restaurant gift card that I wasn't really interested in, and a prepaid Debit mastercard. At first I thought the Debit Mastercard was the best option but after doing some research I decided against that and went for the Amazon.com gift code instead.

And unlike Swagbucks where it takes forever to get your codes, this website gives it to you immediately! It's great! In case anyone is interested, the surveys are usually about $1-3 each and even if you do not qualify you get 10 cents. I would say on average I am getting about 3 invites a month. BTW, the link above is not a referral link, there is no way to get rewards for referring people as far as I know.

More gift cards coming my way..

I may have mentioned this before, but I am a member of Lightspeed Panel. It's one of those sites where you fill out surveys and get points which you can redeem for prizes.

It's changed recently though, before there was not many choices, just cash through paypal, or amazon gift cards, and I think the minimum was $25. Recently they have added all these options! Now you can get gift cards for all kinds of places, as well as actual merchandise.

Right now I have 1475 points, and I already have so many options. For 1059 points I can get $10 through paypal, or for 1378 points, a $10 gift card for: Roots, Canadian Tire, Coles, Homesense, Old Navy, Galaxy Cinemas, Chapters, Winners, Suzy Sheir, and Amazon.ca.

And those are only the ones I like. There are so many more.

I don't know what to pick, I could go with Winners or Suzy Shier for new clothes, Canadian Tire for gas, or Amazon.ca to buy pretty much anything. Or just plain cash. Which is kind of boring.
I think I am going to wait though, until something comes up that I really need. Or save it until Christmas to use for Christmas shopping.

Incase anyone wanted more information, this site is pretty good IMO. I get emails atleast like 4-5 times a week, usually the surveys are about 75-150 points for about 20 mins. Or they SAY 20 mins, but it never takes me as long as they say because I breeze right through them.

I was going to post a referral link incase anybody wants to join, but I searched all through the site and I can't find one. :(

Latest Freebies!

Here is an update on some money or gift cards I have earned online:

Hotspex - $10
It's a survey site where you earn points. Each time you do a survey you get to spin the hotspex wheel for extra points or instant prizes. I won $10 a few weeks ago and they mailed me a check. I am really disappointed in this site and will not be using it anymore because of recent changes. You used to be able to go on points.com and redeem your points for gift cards or even trade them for other points programs like HBC, aeroplan miles etc. But they cancelled their agreement with points.com so now I have all these points that are void. Now all you get to do is use your points to enter contest. BOO. Not impressed.

Air Miles: $25 HBC gift card.
I traded in 200 air miles for an HBC gift card. I am just waiting for it to come in the mail. My favourite makeup line, MAC has a counter in The Bay in the mall here, so I am probably going to treat myself to something there. Or maybe boots. We'll see.

Swagbucks- $5 Amazon.com gift card (up to $15 dollars now).
I finally got another amazon.com gift card, and ever since I installed the toolbar I have been earning them much faster because I am alerted when there is new swag codes. I am looking forward to redeeming them a bit more often!

Opinion Outpost really pays!

Yesterday I received a check in the mail from Opinion Outpost for $21.10 US. They said to allow 4-8 weeks so I was not expecting it anytime soon. It is dated May 21st so it didn't take too long at all! I am going to put this towards my savings for my car down payment.

So if anyone was wondering whether this company really pays or not, now you know they do!

I have a referral!

Today in my email inbox there was an email from InboxDollars saying my account was credited. I didn't remember what it was for so I opened it and I earned $0.18 from a referral! I'm excited about this! It's only $0.18 but I have a referral! So whoever you are, if you are reading this, thanks for signing up! And if anyone else is interested please see my InboxDollars banner on the right hand side of my blog. :)

Check out this site!

If you guys have not been to the website www.greenbook.org, you really should check it out. I'm not sure where I read of this site, but it's basically like a directory of legitimate research companies that you can sign up with to do online surveys, telephone interviews, focus groups etc. I went to the section for Ontario and it listed a bunch of companies, mostly in Toronto. I joined quite a few and have gotten two surveys already! I think most of the ones I joined are where you get points for doing surveys then once you have so many points you can redeem them for cash rewards. These companies seem pretty legit and there is a ton of them on this website so check it out!

Survey Lion

I joined Survey Lion a few weeks ago and today I got my first invitation for a survey! It was for $3.00 and it was about income tax returns for Canadians. I'm surprised I actually qualified for the first survey I ever got invited to do! I am hoping I will keep getting invites from this company for more surveys. And hopefully it won't be weeks between each one!

Once you join you can earn $5.00 for each person you refer that becomes active. If anyone would like a referal just leave your email in a comment and I will send you one!

PTC/Survey Sites

Hi Everybody

I've decided to make a post about some "Paid to click" and Survey sites that I am a member of, which ones i like and which ones i dont really recommend. Now I have never actually been paid myself from these sites yet, as I have not reached the minimum payout becaue i have not been a member for that long really. But i have seen proof of other people's payments so i feel confident that i will be paid once i reach payout. So here we go:

Treasure Trooper:
Current balance: 4.50
Each day you can take a survey for 75 cents. They say you can take one every day but thats really only if you qualify. If you don't qualify for any on that day then you have to try again tomorrow. You can also get paid to fill out offers like joining other sites and stuff but I am not interested in doing that.

Cash Crate:
Current balance: 1.60
Basically the same thing as the above mentioned, only you get 80 cents per survey completed.
http://cashcrate.com/414756

Inbox Dollars:
Current balance: 10.50
Same thing as the first two only its $1.00 for each survey and you also get money for doing little profile surveys they are like25 cents each or something.





Paid to click sites

Bux.to:
Current balance: 3.06
Basically you log in and there is a list of links for you to click on. They are 1 cent per link and there is usually like 15-17 a day.
http://bux.to/?r=erin86

Clix4coins:
Current balance: 4.49
Same thing, you log in and click on links. But you get a 3.00 bonus when you sign up. This site usually has only 4-5 links per day but they can be 1-3 cents. Sometimes they are all 3 cents so thats 12 cents a day.

Those 2 are my favourite pay to click sites. I am a member of other sites but i have stopped going to them lately because they dont pay as much. Like less than one cent per link. At first i figured if i was in enough of them it would really add up but i just dont think its worth my time anymore to spend like an hour clicking links and earning like 10 cents! lol. These sites that i am talking about are: Moratraffic, adverbux, titanclicks, clixsense etc. I wouldnt really recommend these. I do hear tho that clixsense is a good one if you upgrade...but if u dont you get like 1-2 clicks a day, not really worth it.

If anyone knows of other good PTC sites that pay atleast 1 cent per click and have atleast like 10-15 a day then feel free to let me know!
