    hi there,
    Not an option for everybody but I do some webcam work for ExcelTelemedia. You can earn up to £15 an hour but its great for me cos I can do it when the kids are in bed and its not as scary as you might think!:rotfl:
    think their website is www.exceltelemedia.com and you can just log on whenever you want.

    Just had a look on the website and i'm defo interested in it but when it says "videos of you" and they want you to talk to lonely people, is it like sex chatlines and rude videos?

    Forget that-just read more details, should've done that first, could you possibly MS me with more details etc

    Great info thanks very much
  • I don't know if this is the kind of suggestion you are looking for, but in addition to my main job which at the moment is working temporarily full time in an office, I work in a shop on a Saturday, which brings in extra wages as well as bonuses we make for meeting sales targets in the shop. And I enjoy it, too :)

    I've started finding advertising for a local company alongside my regular job, which is quick and easy. I just reference the advertiser to the company and get a cut of the advertising cost. Simple!

  • Hi all!

    I've signed up to pretty much all of the survey suggestions, but struggling a bit with QuidCo. I'm not sure how it all works so any tips would be great :)

    Many thanks!

    Hi all,
    There doesn't seem to be many messages on here recently so I'll add to here what I do :)
    I work 20 hours a week as a classroom support worker and love it :)
    I am also involved with 2 party plan companies of which I absolutely love both! The first is well known - Body Shop at Home, lovely smelling products at good prices :) The second is Blue Bella - Beautiful French and Italian lingerie, gorgeous smelling candles and romantic goodies ladies as well as couples :) Blue Bella also provide free kit build which allows consultants to add to their kit without paying out which is quite rare :)
    Hope this helps,
    Jenny :)
    Everything happens for a reason :)

    Yeah this is a very good idea. Working from home is great and is more flexible. It helps to get extra income too. Thanks mate

    Hi, this is a great thread.

    Ages ago I signed up to all the survey sites I could get my hands on - probably over 100! Big mistake! I very quickly got completely overwhelmed with the amount of emails and spam, so now I just do 4. These are the ones that I have actually received rewards / money from, so I would recommend them.

    Global Test Market - received a cheque for $50 (the equivilant in £)
    Toluna - got a £10 Amazon Voucher
    YouGov - have about £9 in the account, they pay when you get to £50
    American Consumer Opinion - once received a cheque for about $4, but now I think they save up and send it out when you reach $50.

    You cannot make big money doing this, you would have to spend hours at a computer to do so, but if you view it as pocket money it's not so bad. Today I did a survey for globaltestmarket, took me about 10 minutes and was worth $5 so not too bad.

    I also tried a company called Fact Finders - basically you have to scan in all the shopping that you bought each week using a scanner they send you that plugs into your phoneline. You then get points to convert to prizes like small household goods (I had my eye on some le cruset pans!). I gave up on this though as it was too much work and I figured it would take me about 2 years to get the pots and pans!
