    I have been ignoring the rewarded opinions surveys as I lost track of which sites I was registered with and forgot my login details. however...I am now back on track but don't know how good they are!

  • Thanks Kirsty and Twinkle for the advice, will have to do some research online and see what I can find and I will try in the other thread, thank you.

    Hope you manage to get some time to relax this evening Kirsty, you sound like you have been very busy!

    Well done everyone on your money making, so many great ideas floating around and lots of inspiration for others, I love the way we can bounce ideas off each other :)

    If someone would like to invite me to opinion world or rewarded opinions, I'm not sure if it would help anyone with reward points, but I think these are the ones I am missing. Going to check if I still have the referal email to send on to you all for the coney one and I will update if I can find it.

    On a positive note I was accepted onto shop and scan and you get 10000 points when you submit your first shopping barcodes which equates to £10, you can register your interest on their website and they will get back to you, think it took two months for me to get on to it. Worth registering your interest if it sounds like something you would be interested in.

  • Nickybo, thank you so much, you have some amazing ideas there and you have really inspired me. I have a friend who works in the school up the road and my mum works in a pre-school too so I will have a word with them regarding cards, I have looked into card-making quite a few times but sometimes really draw a blank on making something gorgeous and original but you have really inspired me, will start looking for supplies.

    I love the jewellery party idea, this probably would work well with other crafts too. Thanks for the advice about advertising too, it's not something I would have initially thought about but they are really good ideas. Thank you so much :)

    Just make sure you submit every week else customer services will be ringing you every 5 mins! I'm with ShopandScan too it's a good panel to be on. I wrote a post about it a while back if anyone is interested in joining.

    Welcome along Pink! The more the merrier!

    Have a look at the first couple of posts on the thread that outline the challenges and the survey sites we are doing - if there is anything you fancy just ask someone for a referral that way we can all help each other out.

    Try your hand at bingo port too where you can get a £5 amazon voucher every couple of weeks - you'll see us all on there between 8-9pm x

    ShopandScan (https://www.shopandscan.com) is a panel where you scan all items of your shopping (including your food, household and even clothes shopping) using a small clicker and upload till receipts to the ShopandScan website so that they can monitor consumer shopping trends. You need to be invited by ShopandScan to join the panel. Anyone who is interested needs to register their details on https://www.volunteer4panels.com and tell them that you're interested in the ShopandScan panel. It takes about 3months from registering to be a panel member but it will probably depend on the demographics they are looking for at the time. You do need access to a computer and you'll also need a scanner or digital camera for the receipt uploads.

    You need to be willing to upload the scanner data every week as CS bombard you with phonecalls and emails if you're late! So this is definitely not a panel for the faint hearted!

    In return they give you reward points to spend on vouchers such as Argos, Debenhams, HMV etc in £10 denominations. You get £10 for your first scanner upload then about £1 per week for scanner uploads and 50p per week for receipt uploads. There are also other panels that you can be invited to join once you have been a member for a while.

    This is shop and scan in a nutshell
