Surveys!


Years ago, I tried doing the online survey thing. Have you ever done it? OMG. I didn't last long. LOL!

The surveys are always long and repetitive, so annoying! I mean, how many times can I answer the same question, over and over? BUT, since we have had our ongoing financial crisis, I decided to give it a whirl one more time. This time, I had a good friend to lead me in the directions of the companies that will actually pay or send you products, not just all those sweepstakes and pint rewards ones.

So, I signed up for 2. Yeah, I know, big whoop right? Okay, one sucked and I won't be doing anymore for them. The other one I was with for a long time but thought it was a bunch of crap because everything said you'll be entered for the sweepstakes, or something, so I just gave up. Little did I know, this is a ploy they use to see who actually cares. My friend told me that they may end up sending you products or something anyway. So, I have been doing everyone they send me. I'll admit, it is not painless (for me). I really don't have the patience for these things, so I have to keep reminding myself that it is worth the time. Plus, I'm not doing anything anyway. LOL!

I'm happy to report that within a month, not only have I entered into like 25 drawings (LOL), I have earned $5 and two products, one they are sending me 2 of. Sorry I can't tell you what it is, but it's great cause it is something I used everyday! Now I don't have to buy it for a couple of weeks. Cool how some little things have a big impact.
