Thread: Paid to take surveys

    Default Paid to take surveys

    Has anyone ever been paid to take surveys? I went to that snagajob.com site. Anyone have any comments on it?

    Depends. How much do I get, how long does the survey take, and how long until I get my money?

    I've earned about $30 doing online surveys.

    the anne perks is most of that, and I have a lot of 'hipoints' to be redeemed with harris poll. This is over a period of a year maybe a year and a half. After I found a few to do and lost the time to do them, I didn't look them up as much. There's one called cedar something that is supposed to pay well, but they don't always have open application times.

    Doesn't seem like a bad deal, but I've always been wary that they're a bit of a con to shove advertising down your throat to your e-mail/home address. Never really had any desire to do any more.

    wow, i never knew you could earn so much for doing them

    If I was like Cloud I don't think I would have taken that test.

    You get "hi-points" for completing surveys. i've gotten like 2500 so far, and there's a lot of things I've thought about getting, but I'm holding out to make sure it's a worthwhile thing, because it takes so long to get the points xD

    (it's kinda like marlboro miles if any of you recall those)

    I've been paid to take part in a medical study which involved a survey. Does that count?

    I've been paid to surf the intertubes. You just install this giant (relatively) toolbar and it records your surfing habits and stuff.

    I tricked it using a mouse macro and toggled between two of my webpages at night so I can log lots of hours.

    Dunno what happened with it to be honest.

    I was in the mall one time and a stranger told me I could earn twenty bucks if I took a survey about alcohol. I agreed so he took me into a scary back room, I took the survey in about an hour, and then he wrote me a check. That was awesome.

    I got paid $20 to have an MRI while taking a survey thing. They let me keep the pictures of my brain.
