If you want to make a few extra bucks, you can do some online surveys with survey companies. You won't make a living do this but will make a few extra bucks. Most surveys pay between $1-$20. Usually within the $2-$3 range. The surveys take between 5-30 minutes each (usually the longer the survey the more the pay. Keep in mind, that not all surveys pay and you usually have to answer a few qualifying questions before proceeding with the survey. There are some companies will also ask you to do market research studies, where they will send you a new product that has not hit the marketplace yet and have you use the product and give your opinions. You usually always get to keep the product and alot of times get paid also. These are fun! I recently did a research study for a special fry pan, got to keep the fry fan ($25 value pan) and got paid $20 in addition. I have done a underwear study for Hanes underwear and got paid $15 and got 4 pairs of underwear. I got to try new facial products and equipment, food, air freshners, etc. The following list of companies I have done surveys or studies for and are on the top of my list for companies that pay good, are worth my time or that are fairly easy to qualify for.
1. My # 1 choice is http://www.pineconeresearch.com/ (unfortunately, they are not taking applicants at this time, however, keep your eyes for banners on websites for this company)
They pay $3 per survey and if you sign up for paypal you can get paid within 24-48 hours after completion of survey.
2. https://www.surveyspot.com/home.shtml Surveyspot has different surveys (some paid up to $5 and alot of surveys not paid, I try to make sure I do a few of these becaue it gives me more paid survey opportunities. With every survey, you do get entries into their sweepstakes.
3. American Consumer Opinions (click on link at top of blog) This company also does market research studies.
4. Your 2 cents https://www.your2cents.com/members/Login.asp?
5. Your 2 cents for Teens https://www.your2cents.com/Register.asp
6. Survey savvy (This is one of my favorites)

7. Mindfield http://mindfieldonline.com/referral/5c76aa08 age 15 and up
8. Vindale Research http://tryvindale.com/VYKbyI5xB
This a different kind of survey site. You actually sign up to do evaluations for products (for ex. sign up for a trial period w/ Blockbuster) you can cancel the service if you don't want it and won't have to pay anything. The evaluations pay really well, the only drawback is to sign up for alot of the offers you have to use your credit card so if you want to continue the service, the company can bill you. Each evaluation gives you complete details and the time limit you have to cancel, so you don't get charged. This is a legitimate company and I have done many surveys with no problems. Just make sure you know how long you have to cancel if you don't want to continue. You can easily make $50-$100 right away. It's worth checking the website out!
9. Inbox dollars- this site pays you to read emails, play games and do offers. The only thing I am doing is read emails from advertisers, so I am not real familiar with other stuff they offer. You click on the email to read it and click on confirm that you read email. It only takes a few seconds to read and you get 3 or 4 per day. Each email is only a few cents, but it adds up after awhile. Once you reach $30 you can cash out.

10. "My view" is another great site, however, they are not taking any new applicants at this time. The reason I list it, is to keep your eyes open for it to come available. When I know they are excepting new applicants, I will list it. I actually won $500 with them on a sweepstakes. So keep your eyes out for this site.
