Surveys galore!

Seems the surveys I have been getting are increasing in pay! Yesterday I got a Angus Reid survey for $5! It was interesting, interactive and energy related. I am so thankful I installed the gmail notifier as the number one problem with the Angus Reid surveys are they are full by the time I can do them. So now I am at $8!

TNS sent me a survey for $7.50, it was long, repetitive and not much fun, but I completed it! That should bring me to $8.75, so almost time to cash out again!!

I called in on my Web Perspectives $10 survey today. I am told my less than 5 minute automated phone call will get me $2!

Lightspeed sent me a survey for 150 points, I am at 963 points(1112 is cash out for $10). Again, what I love about lightspeed is that they credit you your points as soon as you finish the survey.
It would be great if I could keep this up and show that anyone could make $300 a month doing surveys, hey? Anyone, make that?

Cash Out at My Survey!!

Well, it's time to cash out at My Survey! They will send me a cheque in the mail for a minimum of $10, I have $20! I registered with them June 1 of 2010. I have done a total of 18 surveys. Some very short interest type surveys for as little as 5 points, but as I hung in there I got a survey for 1000 points($10)! I found it very interesting(it was a spending diary)and I may get to do it again in November! Then right after that I got a regular survey worth 500 points! So, there you have it...another cash out! We'll see how long it takes to get the cheque.

Also, today Purolator brought me my Neilsen Home Scan scanner! Anyone else out there using it? We figured out all the points and don't think we will be doing it for the shopping rewards! Anyone ever win their sweepstakes? We are kind of excited to scan things!! We'll see how it goes, might be a lot of work for not much reward!

Web Perspectives $10 Survey




Some of you may have received a survey from Web Perspectives today. Don't hesitate to do it quickly! $10 for the initial survey and then $2 for every time you phone in(5min interview) to tell them you saw a particular thing in store. This is to a maximum of 20 times!!! $40!! Plus if you are so inclined to take pictures while in store you receive an extra .10/picture up to 30 maximum or $3.00. So, altogether this survey could be worth $53!!! If you are already researching a particular purchase, you are paid to research! Yeah!!!

Angus Reid


One of the most popular survey sites, Angus Reid surveys Canadians about current events. The surveys are quite short and set up so as to make them a bit more interactive and interesting. The problem is they send out surveys and then you have to be in the first 1000 to get paid. How to solve this problem? Add the gmail notifier ,it makes a nice little ding and there's a pop up when you get a survey! $50 is cash out and as I have only done $3 worth it will be awhile. I like this site though as the surveys are interesting and not long. Worth joining? I think so.

Web Perspectives Update

Here's an update on my Web Perspectives account! Not long until I can cash out, I am just waiting for the pending to go through and I'll have a double cash out! Most of these surveys pay well and don't take overly long to do!

Cash out time at Surveyhead!


Yeee haaa! Cash out time finally at Surveyhead! $25.68 will be paid into my Pay Pal account! Why it takes 4weeks or more? I don't know! But, there you have it another cash out! Surveyhead surveys aren't hard, often pay well($4.28 was the highest survey). I got $5.27 as a welcome bonus, I did 9 quick profile surveys so they knew which surveys to send me, and 8 actual surveys that paid between $1.02 and $4.28. I could have cashed out a long time ago, but it takes a very long time for surveys to go from pending to earned! I signed up with them May 31, 2010. They aren't my very favorite as I often find I don't qualify for the surveys and the long pending times! But, that said, I still think they are one of the better ones out there!

Same Survey Different Pay?

A quick note to say I have noticed that I received the same survey from 2 different companies, on two different days, for two different pay amounts! One was $5.00 and the other $7.50! Hmmm.
Also, Global Test Market seems to get me to answer pages and pages of a survey, before disqualifying me...doesn't seem right!
I seem to be getting higher paying surveys and lots of them right now! Almost ready to cash out with 3 different companies...My Survey.ca and Surveyhead and Web Perspectives!

Top Survey Sites for Canadians in my opinion

So far I have been most impressed with the following survey companies:
Web Perspectives- surveys are fairly regular and are usually at least 150 points($1.50)
My Survey or TNS regular surveys and decent pay(I've been paid 500 points for one survey)
Lightspeed pays at least 100 points per survey
Surveyhead I have over $30 pending and surveys are $1 or more and quite regular, though I don't often qualify.
Global Test Market this company usually sends point surveys starting at 35 market points($1.75), I am at 235 market points, it takes 1000 to cash out, but that's $50.
Which companies are your favorite? Making any money? Which ones do you like that I haven't mentioned?

TNS or My Survey.ca

Hi,
Sorry for the delay..summer holidays!
Just a quick post to say that right now TNS or mysurvey.ca seems to be a great place to spend my time! I just finished the spending diary for the month of August. It was easy and interesting. I am looking forward to being credited $10 for that. Then they sent me a survey for 500 points, or $5 yesterday. Today I did one for 250 points! So, I am at 190 points + 1000+500+250! 1940 or $19.40! They said they'd send me another spending diary survey in November if I qualified! Cool!
