Welcome to the MSE Forum.

Your best bet is to do a search on the forum (you can also use the button up on the right that says 'Search This Thread' for things like surveys (note the spelling), TNS, Pinecone, Dooyoo, work from home, computer work etc as there are many threads which will be able to help. Reward return amounts can vary, but they can also build up quite quickly.

Martin's article on Boosting Your Income should be a useful place to start.

A word of warning regarding "surveys", you will not make any extra income from these schemes unless you spend 12 hours per day typing on your PC, I have tried various schemes and the only one that does not scam you seems to be One Poll, I have been filling in surveys for 8 months now and racked up an earth shattering, life changing sum of.... £17.50 Whoopee doo, CIAO are scam artist's...do not waste your time, they trap you in to filling in surveys then after completing they questions they kick you out and inform you that you have not qualified for the survey...hmmm, yea right.
If you want to earn real money online and if you have any programming skills i.e. C#, NET or ASP, PHP etc, you could use rent-a-coder and write software from home, that is about the most genuine well paying scheme on the net that I can think of, if all else fails get part-time work in a supermarket or as a cleaner or maybe work in a Pub? Sorry if this post comes across unconstructive but just wanted to level the playing field so to speak.

That is ok for surveys, but anybody after extra income would ideally want to see that per week which is achievable doing basic un-skilled work like cleaning and shop work, not being funny but I could save that £75 over a year in buying one less luxury or turning my heating down a few degrees, not a vast amount for 1 year is it?

They pay you a certain amount of pence for each track you review. Type slice the pie into the search box on this website,

Good luck

Whether you can earn any real money with surveys depends very much on your own particular demographics. The ideal survey taker seems to be between the ages of 30 and 44, a mother of young children who does the household cooking and cleaning and is either in full time work or married to/living with someone in full time white collar work. If you fit all of these criteria you can be looking at £50 to £100 a month plus a steady supply of products to test but if you don't meet any of these you might only get a few pounds a month. If you are able to take part in focus groups in person the amount can be considerably higher.
