I have been a member of MySurvey for a few years now. I love it. I have gotten rewards back in cash, products and gift certificates. I have also gotten a LOT of free products to use and then tell them what we thought of them. They send full sized products, never sample size. They do ask you to dispose of the unused portion of the product after the designated time period is over, but I don’t. If they are going to send me 2 rolls of paper towels – 1 roll for each of two weeks – I am not going to throw the leftovers away. I am going to put them to use. Other than paper towels some of the things I have gotten are: deodorant – 2 kinds, shaving cream for my DH -2 kinds, Pillsbury products including cookies, rolls & biscuits (these came shipped overnight with dry ice to keep them frozen or refrigerated as needed.) My favorite item we have gotten is free pull ups! I had to agree to be in a 6 week study, but we ended up getting 12 regular sized packages of pull ups absolutely FREE and then I earned a lot of points for filing out the information afterwards.

I love MySurvey, there are times when I get 1,000 point surveys and I feel like I hit the jackpot lol

Oh and Denise that SurveySpot.com sweepstakes thing at the end of each survey isn’t fake. I’ve won twice when it comes to that. Once a $50 Circuit City gift card and then a $25 American Express gift card. But I understand your frustration when it comes it, SurveySpot can be so generous for a few months and then some months you can barely get a survey that is over $3.

this is a great survey company… sometimes the surveys dry up a little but just when you think they’ve forgotten about you, you get more survey invitations. I have been a member for about 8 years, and it has taken that long for me to earn about $100, but every time I get that $20 check, I don’t complain! I have also had about 4 opportunities to try full size products from reputable companies.

I live this company I have been doing surveys and product testing for them for almost 10 yrs! Which reminds me I need to go on their website and use my rewards for this 6 month time period I do mine very six months.

I love mysurvey. I’ve made $40 already and have only been a member for about 8 months. I also have had several products to test which is nice. Some take a little more effort, where the length is over the course of 4 weeks, but it takes an initial set up of the data for about 15 minutes and then updates every day of about 5 minutes. I think it is one of the better survey sites. I tried Survey spot and absolutely hated it. Never got any $/point offers worth much and there were always problems with my account. Opinion outpost is nice too, but I’ve only qualified for a couple of surveys worh $6.50 total.

Thanks for this site. I signed up for Survey spot a while back when you mentioned it and don’t like it . I have not received anything for participating in surveys execept to be entered into some drawing. I would not recommend that site.

I’ve been a member since 2001! I can’t begin to tell you the full size retail products, food products and make up I’ve gotten over the years. Some surveys are detailed, but worth the extra points they give.
I’ve turned in my points every Christmas to give magazine subscriptions to my kids and friends, not to mention over $200 in checks.
You’re gonna love it.

I’ll look into this. I got back into doing surveys recently, mainly because of the posts. I signed up for Pinecone again, and also Survey Spot and Opinion Outpost. I didn’t like SurveySpot /at all/. They sent enormous amounts of surveys, and only a very few of them offered points. Of the ones that DID offer points, I would be pretty far into the survey before I’d find out that I didn’t qualify. After a month I earned 100 points on a survey. At that point I quit–it wasn’t worth the time.

Opinion Outpost I think better of. I’ve only qualified for a handful of surveys, BUT I did win the “instant win” deal on what I call the “consolation prize” page. I went ahead and cashed it in, and had my $50 check within a week (despite the information that said it would take 8-10 weeks to recieve the money)!! Not bad!

Pinecone is my favorite still. They may only be $3 per survey, but it’s $3 you know you’ll get when you start the survey. They are consistent and steady.

I’m looking forward to trying out MySurvey.

I have been a member for several years and am very happy with it. Lots of surveys offered and all earn points – no qualifying. Though there will be surveys that will seem you fit what they are looking for and offer you even more points for more minutes of your time. Usually 15 – 30 min. for an additional 750 points for example. Also products to test from time to time in exchange for your opinion.

I signed up for Opinion Outpost after you blogged about survey sites and love it! I’ve made $10 directly through the site, plus qualified for and participated in an online discussion group that paid $150! Oh, and I also qualified for a shampoo product testing – I’m supposed to be receiving two bottles this week! Maybe I’ve just been lucky but I’ve made more from this one site in the past few weeks than I made through all other survey sites combined for the entire year.

I tried signing up for a few of the survey companies previously posted and almost immediately stopped participating. I was spending too much time to be “unqualified” after 15 minutes of a survey.
I have been doing My Survey for awhile and also love that you get 5 points for the screening and then if you are offered the “real” survey, you are rewarded accordingly.

Be careful if you’re a military family, they will not allow you on their panel if they find out. I got kicked off when they found out I am in a military household.

I love mysurvey.com. I’ve earned easily $30 so far this year. Checks come promptly when requested. http://www.i-say.com is another survey company I like. You earn points to redeem in cash (100 points equals $10), AND you earn Mypoints for each survey too; even if you don’t qualify for the survey, you earn 1 or 2 points towards the cash rewards in addition to 1 point for Mypoints. Clear as mud, right?

thanks! I tried Opinion Outpost for a few weeks now. I have not qualified for one survery!! So I give up. I don’t like that one… I was several minutes into most of the survery’s (at least 10-12 questions) when I found out I did not qualify. That doesn’t seem right. I love Pinecone!

i’ve been doing mysurvey for many years, beginning when they did everything by paper, sending surveys in the mail. my mom was a member when i was in elementary school, 40 years ago. i love the company and i love the extra money i can earn through them. over the past three years, i’ve probably made close to $100. every little bit helps.

Do these surveys take up a lot of time? I recently went back to work after 18 months of staying home with my kids. I’d love to do something like this but wonder if I could really take the time to do the surveys now that I am working outside the home again.
