| "Get Paid To Take Surveys" Anyone tried this? I'm curious about this and was wondering if anyone has ever tried it. It sounds a little to easy. We get to sit at home in our PJ's and get paid for being online? Probably not enough to maintain a household, but maybe just enough to have a little extra cash to spend on ourselves or our furbabies. But are they legit? Or is it like some of those get "get free stuff" websites where you have to fill out a credit card application in order to get a new Xbox or a really nice purse? Here's a link to one I've seen Get Paid To Take Surveys Online!

| I did one before....not the one you mentioned, and I never got paid but they would send you discounts to different places. A dollar here and there never made it seem worth it since it took 15 minutes to do it and then my email started getting a lot of junk. I don't think they are worth it. JMO |

| So you don't even get paid $$$ you get paid in coupons? I went to the FAQ page and found this: Q: Who actually pays me? A: The survey companies in our database would pay you directly. But if what you're saying is true, their form of payment isn't actually money? They should really think twice about it, if people do this for the potential of getting money and get paid in coupons, how are we going to have money to even use the coupons with no money?

| It's not worth it. You have pages and pages worth of offers to sign up for and you get hundreds of junk emails. I've never finished even one because there is just so many pages of offers to fill out and you end up spending more money than you receive.

| I did it four years ago, for points. I had about 5000, it looked legal. I did about 5 suveys a day. I never cashed out, but I did get lots of product sample. oh! I also got some little checks for 5, 10, and even 20.00. I have being looking for the website, but I can not remenber the name. The one thing I remember, is that the first ones to fill them out got trhe points.

I haven't put a lot of effort into is and I have earned over $370 in the last year. You can cash out to paypal or for gift cards. Be sure to check out the forum and you can find lots of information.

| I've done a couple of surveys and got paid about $150.00 but it was in person. I went to a hotel and took a survey on different vehicle upolestry. At the end of the survey, which was about 40 mins., they gave me an envelope with the cash. It was great. I wish they'd call me again.

No Longer a Member | The trick with all the emails is to open a special email account just for your surveys. That way they're not bogged down in your every day email, they are all together and can go thru them at your leasure. I did it for a while, not long enough to actually get paid anything. |

| I did it for about 2 years and what I got were some samples and a few bucks. Not worth the effort... If you start doing it you should consider to get 'roboform'. It fills all the forms and is free. |
