slickdeals.net --a great resource!

slickdeals.net is a great resource for the serious survey taker. i always thought of them as a 'sweeps, coupon, deals and sales' type site but i discovered they have a whole forum devoted to surveys and focus groups.

surveymini--a great mobile site!

SurveyMini Review

here is an app that i just discovered this past month and its another good one! its only available on iPhones though through the app store.
you get quick 2 minute surveys after you visit most retailers or restaurants (it detects your location) and you rack up points QUICKLY! in just one month i earned enough points for a $10 gift card and they have several to choose from: burger king, jamba juice, chick-fil-a, and sonic to name a few. you can also accumulate your points and cash them in for a $25 gift card to places like bath and body works, petsmart, office max, even amc movies.
its a quick and effortless $10 gift card each month!

survey spot review

i must admit this one is not my favorite, their sister site, http://www.opinionoutpost.com is much better--most surveys are ridiculously low paying--however there are a few gems in the mix so it makes it worth my while. i just back out of the majority of surveys when i know they are not leading to a product test or focus session. that being said, i have scored great products and further online opportunities through this site---you just need to get some familiarity with the different surveys so you can sense the good ones!

BABY MAGIC BLISS BY AIR WICK!

Oh-My-Goddess

this stuff is mind blowing amazing! i have been on the electronic diffuser merry-go-round for decades now. i used bath and bodyworks wall flowers for years but the scents never lasted beyond a few days. i gave glade a chance last year but again i was so impressed the first day when my whole house was infused with wonderful fragrance and then would not detect ANYTHING 48 hrs later! i pretty much was coming to the conclusion that no one has yet mastered long lasting fragrance in an electronic diffuser.

but then i tried air wick in the baby magic scent.

iPoll--they have been very good to me!

i have to say, the regular ipoll site is JUST OKAY--however, i make scores of money on their mobile site. very high paying missions---$5 - $30 for going to the grocery store and buying a specific item and then reviewing it at home. seriously, i have made over $100 just in one month. the caveat is you don't get notifications so you HAVE to look at the app daily, even twice a day to see any missions in your area. still, its super easy money and one of my most profitable apps.
as for the site itself--i don't really bother with the majority of their low paying surveys but i still check it daily for their frequent 'gut-check' focus groups. a few times a week they have 2-5 online focus groups but you have to find them on your 'available surveys' dashboard. they pay anywhere from $5-$20 and they are super easy and actually fun to do.
ipoll is a very profitable site if you are proactive and make it part of your routine to check both the pc and mobile site at least once a day for the good ones because they go fast!

mindswarms review

mindswarms is another great site that pays extremely well and is global. you do need a webcam or video function on your phone or tablet in order to be eligible for interviews. 

mindswarms basically consists of two formats:

$50 for answering 7 questions (you watch a video tape of each question and then webcam/record your answer back)
$10 for answering 1 question (same format)

it is difficult to be picked for these. i apply to many and have only been accepted 3 times so far. what i really liked about it was my answers weren't 'live' in front of someone else across the computer. i had time to think about my answer, even taking a few notes, before i had to tape my reply. and you can always erase an answer and re-answer it.

its actually very easy money--you just have to get chosen! i find they are hit or miss with emailing new studies so its best to check the site yourself often to see whats available.
