Toluna: surveys + free stuff???


Get paid for your opinion.

You can view upcoming products that you can be chosen to test and keep.

Here’s a screen shot of one of the products they’re currently testing:

My Pinecone Research book came!

Photo1.jpg

This is one of the great books we lost in the flood – everything from heating your home with wood, to making herbal vinegars, from stenciling to goat and sheep-keeping.  I like the sections on vegetable gardening and pest-control.  It was one of the thousands of books offered in the PineCone Research catalog and I grabbed it.  I only ordered it Monday afternoon and it’s already here!  Free and fast shipping – what’s not to love?

Pinecone Research Gen’l Population Open


PineCone Research is the only survey/opinion site I still belong to ’cause I like their surveys (they’re not long) and they pay really, really fast (within a few hours).  The rewards catalog is immense and shipping is free and fast (just like me!).  You can also choose to get paid in cash.  PineCone Research conducts on-line interviews with consumers from all walks of life to obtain their opinions about new products; I’ve also gotten products to review. To become a panel member, all you need to do is complete a simple form.

It’s easy and fun to see and evaluate new product ideas in the comfort of your own home. You earn points for each completed product survey, which can be exchanged for cash and other rewards. PLUS you will be automatically entered into a bi-weekly Sweepstakes to win additional cash prizes. Each interview usually takes 15-20 minutes or less; you are free to leave the panel at any time.

more survey sites with current openings

I always say that legitimate survey/opinion sites will never promise vast pots of cash for working vertically, nor will you be asked for enter credit card information to be a Secret Shopper.  But doing a few of these takes only minutes and it adds up.

Springboard America has openings for females and males – separate links for each.  Check to be certain and get back to me…

SpringBoard America-FEMALES

Pinecone Research: openings for Hispanics & 18-24 year olds

Pinecone Research is actively recruiting new young adults.  If you are between the ages of 18-24 and live in the US, register to evaluate new product ideas and earn cash rewards for your opinions.

If you are Hispanic, you can apply here – so if you’re an 18-24 Hispanic you now have two shots at getting in!  Pay’s the same, but your odds are better.

Pinecone is the survey site I’ve stayed with over the years since they don’t email you “pre-qualify” surveys, the surveys themselves are short and they pay $3 (cash or points) within 24 hours.  Points add up quickly – I’ve gotten a couple of books through their immense gift catalog.

Pinecone Research survey/opinion open


Pinecone Research is the survey site I’ve stayed with for years after dropping the others. They pay fast and you can take cash or gifts – their gift catalog is immense.  Click on this link or the banner and you will be automatically directed to the appropriate link based on demographics.  This is a very popular survey site, which is why it sometimes takes quite a few tries before you’re accepted.

surveys for a little extra $$

You will not earn large amounts of cash on any legitimate survey/opinion sites, but you could earn enough to count as a part-time job. No commuting, you can sit in your underwear and no people contact. What’s not to like?

SpringBoard America-MALES

SpringBoard America-Males opened back up yesterday. Most survey sites open for limited times until they fill whatever demographics they’re looking for.

Ipsos-ISay-US

Ipsos-ISay-US is another site that has been around for some time.  Earn points that can be converted into cash, gifts or charitable donations.

Nielsen Homescan is back

Nielsen’s Homescan Consumer Panel represents millions of Americans.  By scanning the bar codes on your purchases and completing short surveys, you make your opinions count in the marketplace.  Nielsen sends you a hand scanner (pictured) to scan your purchases and you receive gift points redeemable for electronics, household items, jewelry, toys and more.  I did this for years – Rachel claims it was just to skewer their results with my extreme deals …  tomatoes, tomahtos

This is a hugely popular panel, which means Nielsen may or may not have a spot available in your zip code; check to see if you can get on their waiting list.

my Pinecone Rewards came!

photo.JPGUsed some reward points and ordered this book on the 23rd – it arrived yesterday!  Shipping is FREE. Pinecone has a large inventory (I checked for a few books and they carried them all).  If you’ve applied to Pinecone in the past (even recently), try again.  They pay $3 a survey and  you only get surveys for which you qualify – none of those 10-page prequalify time-wasters.

PineCone Research conducts online interviews with consumers from all walks of life to obtain their opinions about new products.  To become a panel member, all you need to do is complete a simple form.  Not everyone qualifies – their needs for certain age groups in certain zip codes constantly change.  Don’t get in today, you could get in tomorrow; it’s that fluid.

Pinecone Research still accepting new applications!

I’m reposting this from a few days ago because I just used points to buy the book When All HELL Breaks Loose using some of my reward points.  Shipping is FREE, baby!  Surveys, for the most part, are interesting, short and your account is credited within a day.  They have a large selection of items, too.  If you’ve applied in the past (even in the very recent past), try again because their needs change from day to day.

This is the survey site PITA and I continue to use because it pays the most and you only receive surveys for which you’re pre-qualified.
