Is it too good to be true? Money is tight and i'm looking for a survey gig or some sort of supplemental at-home after-work gig that is Legit, and does not require you to buy anything or throw 'parties'(that rules out the scams, and also rules out things like Pampered Chef, etc).

I saw a commercial for an online survey company but i can't remember what it was called....Big 'something'
On FrugalMoms.net i saw some promoted as well. But i get nervous that people will promote things for the wrong reason.

Do any of you have any good experiences with doing surveys or something else similar?

Re: Filling out Surveys - Does it Really Pay Out?
I've done many "market research panels" They usually pay $50-$100 for about an hour of your time to sit around in a grouop and talk about some product. There are lots a sites you can put your info into their database. Google some in your area.

I enjoy doing surveys for Pinecone Research. It's only $3 per survey but a little extra cash never hurts.

How long are their surveys? I was scammed once and the surveys would take about a half hour each and I never got a cent.

I just checked out their website and it says about 15-20 minutes. However you can't sign up on their website, you have to wait until you see their banner ads on various other sites, of which they don't tell you that either.

Re: Filling out Surveys - Does it Really Pay Out?

MissB is right, it's usually around 15 min. I've always gotten a check for every survery I've completed and sometimes got some cool products to try. Smile

Thanks for the referral link! I just applied, it says I have to wait a couple of days and that I should get an email to let me know if I qualify or not.
