Qriket-Spin the Wheel and Earn Cash.

just discovered this little mobile app, Qriket. it's basically roulette--pick either blue or yellow, spin the wheel and see if you are right. you will start out with 25 FREE SPINS if you enter my code when registering:

52A853

once you use up your 25 free spins you have to earn them. short videos or surveys earn you additional spins. you also can challenge someone and wager a bet to earn more money. i can already tell this is not going to be a quick earner but it is something easy to do when out and about waiting in line somewhere. i also have seen some spins worth $2 so winning a few of those can quickly add up. you can cash out at $25 via paypal. i just started this week and have a whopping 20 cents so we will see how long it takes to redeem.

don't forget to use my code so you have lots of spins to start out with. best of luck!

my code: 52A853

update: well a month into this app and i feel this just may not be worth anyone's time. they don't give you free spins, you have to watch videos, and that gets old fast. until i figure out a way to quickly earn additional spins i am putting this one on the back burner. :(

i just received an invite to become a member of yahoo's research community. i don't have many details other than it said it involves user testing projects and participants are compensated with prepaid gift cards. it said we could share the screener link with friends and family too.

i filled out the screener and now will just sit back and wait to see if i qualify for anything. hopefully this will be something good!

here is the original invite i received:

there is a new community forming and it's for people 'from the heartland'. take this screener and see if you are a good fit! i know they are especially looking for MEN! 

they have not mentioned what incentives are available but it's at least worth joining to see if they are worthwhile--you can always unsubscribe if it turns out to be a dud!

https://tremor.typeform.com/to/CiH1iV

they are run by vocalpoint, an off shoot of Ipsos. here is a description of this new online community:

We’re creating a new kind of map: not of cities and towns but of Heartland culture, pride, traditions, and love. We’ll have more to tell you soon – but first – tell us a little about yourself, and we'll be sure you get one of the first invitations to join our new community.

good luck everyone!

Receipt Pal: Earn Rewards In A Snap!

http://www.receiptpalapp.com/index.html

this app that pays you back is one of the easiest ones to use--trust me. receipt pal just wants you to snap a pic of your receipt---practically any receipt. i snap pics of grocery stores, gas stations, even dr. visits! you cannot take multi pics of a single receipt so that can be a bit of a problem for long receipts. just tape it on the floor, stand on a chair and take your best steady shot. you can even send them online receipts--just forward your email confirmations from purchases! they allow you to register 3 email addresses so all online receipts must be from one of the 3 registered emails.

Focus Groups Round 6!

time for yet another batch of focus groups. more and more people are jumping on the focus group bandwagon so it's important to sign up for as many groups as possible and have better odds of snagging a high paying study from possibly a lesser known site. i know it's a pain reentering your info over and over but scoring a few $100 studies makes it all worthwhile!

Find & Save: An Awesome New App That Earns You Money.

http://www.findnsave.com/apps/

please enter code for my referral: QRGG 

i will receive a bonus for referrals and would really appreciate the gesture. :)

oh my goodness i am liking this new app! find & save is truly offering up FREE MONEY just for shopping at their sponsored stores---no specific items to buy or scan--just take a pic of your receipt and hit send. i have made over $10 in less than 2 months because it's all places i shop anyways: target, walmart, mcdonalds, kohl's, cvs, the list goes on and on! the deals vary--some a flat amount, like 50 cents earned, and others are a percentage of your purchase. threshold for cashing out is $25 and pays through paypal. deals change daily too so always check the app after any shopping trip!

in just 4 wks i have already earned more than i do in 6 months time at my other shopping apps. definitely give it a try and see what you think!

Prolific Academy: This UK Site Is Worth Your Time.

LINK to JOIN

just starting to get my groove on with this site, Prolific Academy. it is UK based and pays in pounds so it can be a bit confounding initially. it is essentially academic researchers offerings paid research studies. the studies are interesting and more about human nature and decision making which are a welcome break front usual technology and shopping habits surveys i take all day long!

i usually wait for an email invite and i have discovered they do close rather quickly so don't wait hours to open up the study invite. so far i have only taken about 10 studies but they all have been approved and my score is 100/100. i really am not sure how points are deducted and what effect that has on the studies you receive. they do pay in paypal although they do charge a small service fee if you reside outside the UK.

you can also visit the site directly to view any open studies. i do appreciate that they list the avg. rate per hour, avg. completion time and slots available for every study.

and it is GLOBAL so anyone can register!

Target's Online Review Program is Looking for New Members!

ATTENTION! DO NOT FALL FOR THE TARGET 'MYSTERY SHOP' $200 SCAM EMAIL. THAT EMAIL IS A SCAM. THIS PROGRAM DOES NOT PAY ANY MONETARY INCENTIVE--IT ONLY GIVES YOU FREE MERCHANDISE IN EXCHANGE FOR YOUR REVIEW.

focus pointe global has a division called STARS that involves having registrants receive products sold at Target in exchange for an honest review at target.com. so far i have only been accepted for two product trials: one was a nice youth bedding set and the other was uniform pants. of course i got to keep the products and writing the reviews took only about 30 minutes total. also know that there is no monetary compensation--the incentive is the merchandise.

here is one of my actual reviews:

Survey.com: Earn Money Doing Store Audits and Merchandising.

here is a nifty little app that i use to make some extra money.  i was lucky enough to score a gig through them for whole foods that lasted for several months and involved me simply attaching coupons to certain products on the shelves. each job only took me 10 minutes and paid $12. i made nearly $200 for the duration of the project and it was super easy. payment was through paypal.

here is the link: https://survey.com

they also often have walmart merchandising jobs where you actually go in and re-merchandise or change out signage for certain products. for some reason it is never any walmarts near me so i haven't tried one of those jobs yet.

it is actually two different apps. one app, survey.com, is available for both apple and android, and is more survey based. screeners for bigger projects will show up here as well. if selected, you then download their second app, survey-merchandiser. please note, DO NOT download the survey-merchandiser app unless you have been approved to do so. from their site:

 "Only download this application if you have explicitly been instructed. 

This application is for approved users only."

i think you have to prove your 'worthiness' on the first app before they offer you the good stuff. that being said, i do not do the surveys that only offer a sweeps entry, which are the majority of them and i don't feel that has hurt me.

good luck and and may the surveys be with you :)
