My Survey: Get cash or gift cards for surveys!

People often ask me for information about “legitimate” survey companies as a way to make extra money.  I have been with My Survey for seven years now and they are a great company to work with!

With My Survey, you earn points for completing surveys.  You can “cash out” your points for a check (in $10 increments), merchandise, or gift cards. Some of the gift cards that they offer are:  Amazon, Paypal, CVS, and Bath and Body Works.  They also offer gift cards for restaurants such as Applebee’s, Chili’s, and Cracker Barrel.  I usually cash out for the restaurant gift cards – it gives us a way to eat out without killing our budget!

How it works:

They will send you a short screener, which is usually worth 5-30 points and then, and usually only takes a few minutes to complete.  If you qualify for the actual survey, it is usually worth anywhere from 150-400 points.  I have also done product testing for them for everything from cleaning products to diapers.

Tips for success:

1.  Make sure your profile is updated with your current e-mail address

2.  When you get an e-mail about survey opportunities, jump on it because sometimes they fill up quickly

PLEASE NOTE: You are probably not going to get “rich” completing surveys, but it is a nice way to bring in a little bit of extra money to save for a vacation or Christmas or to earn gift cards for a few minutes of your time.  Survey companies often target certain demographics so what works well for one person may not work well for another.
