Can anybody post the sign up link for pinecone?

there isnt a link per se, you have to find a pinecone banner and then click through that... there is a thread somewhere in UYI on that very topic, and it was how i got into pinecone.

i have had my 1st survey, paid in LVs and received them about 4 days after i did the survey IIRC.

Oh, the irony.
I joined, and recieved my first survey earlier this week. having got half way through. I decided that for 3 quid, it just wasn't worth it. It went on and on and on. I then stopped and sent message that I no longer wished to participate.

Since then, I've had two emails on consecutive days from them to ask, "please will you complete the survey, we will extend the time limit for you to do so". I think it's because I fall outside the usual.

I used to knock doors to survey, but only a wide cross section of the population ensured that I was paid.
Try getting one of a working pair to answer Q's, when supper's ready and Soaps have started.
Yesterday, I went to complete it. I felt so tired, and have now realised I have just the worst cold and feel dreadful. I haven't done it. I feel so guilty, that other's want it so much.
On top I have a 500 mile round trip to make this Saturday.

Frankly, for £3, I'd sooner wash my neighbour's car, babysit, mow their lawn or walk their dog.

I know this is a daft question but I need to ask it!

The luncheon vouchers - if I go into a supermarket do I have to use them on "lunch" stuff ie sandwiches, small bottles of drink etc? Or can I just hand them in when doing a normal shop?

Thanks

Make sure you fill in the short 'Family' surveys from Pinecone. This appears to be how they draw up their pool for the longer paid surveys. After problems with using luncheon vouchers at the tills I opted for Paypal payment, it might not be much but £4/8 a month comes in handy. You can also get further payment by offering to trial the product being surveyed.

You can use them for anything during your grocery shop. Some staff are wary of them though, which can be embarrassing. I have since opted for Paypal payments...

I had the same problem, and it was very embarassing holding up the till while they called over a supervisor to see if they accept them (despite the fact that Tesco/Asda etc is printed on the back of them). Paypal is just easier.

Are Pinecone now only paying three quid. I have always received four. I did'nt mind four quid for 20 minutes work.
