    Have some to be cashed on shop and scan, Valued opinions (just clicked theirs and says up to 24 hours), Ipsos, and mysurvey.

    Going to have a look now at signing up for the others mentioned on here :)

    Everything will be ok in the end, and if it isn't ok then it isn't the end :)
  • Awww you soppy lot, I like the way everyone works together to find new sites, new ideas and new challenges. I dipped in and out of here last year and made a few hundred but didn't keep it up, now it's become a way of life seeing how much is out there to earn if you want to.

    Amazon vouchers can take anywhere from a week or so to months can't they, I have redeemed twice on WH (once before they upped the amount needed to redeem) and it took ages, I would say easily 6-8 weeks but maybe that was because it wasn't that long after the changes were brought in, they may have had a backlog to clear.

    Well done Emma. Woohoo what a start. :)

    Beki - I'll just go back and take a look. Back in a sec.

    ETA: I think most of those sites pay quickly (within two weeks), but Toluna is 8 weeks. :eek:

    I usually redeem for paper vouchers so I can't give you a definate timeline. Sorry.

    Michelle - it's been that long since I redeemed on Woohoo (before it changed) so it's months ago, and I've forgotten. I'm only at 110 gold now, but I forget to play. I'll make it my own personal challenge to do it everyday for October. :)

    Just shows how a bit of love and an idea can really grow then. We've certainly nurtured it this year. I can't actually wait to get to December and say, actually, this year, I earned ...., and then next year, see what else we can pull out the bag. We have so many talents between us.

    The amazon vouchers - dunno - depends which site you are using. Which one and we might be able to help. Actually, thinking about it, when we update the thread for next year, info about how long a redeem takes in there would be really useful as I can never remember. Swagbucks is one week. Ipsos was nearer 2. Dooyoo is also around 2. Anyone any idea for WH bingo? Or am I one of the 1st to redeem from there? I joined on the 17th of July, so probably fairly good going redeeming on there already.

    well done emma on the review. Bonus being first as well. All helps. It might be a bit less than you think though. one pound sign = 0.5p, 2 = 1p, but first review, so every rate will get you 2p.
    It has 3 £s, never seen it before but when I hovered above it said 2p per rating so then the bonus for being forst to review and will be 3p or 4p not sure what the bonus is?? I am wondering if all perfumes are 3 £s as I plan on doing some more of them. I have sifted through some of my drawers and so far have 29 products which fall under beauty and I am sure there are loads more although how hand wash comes under beauty is beyond me lol!!

    Might just cash em in anyway as I will probably end up using them at amazon for cheap wii games :D

    Thanks for looking for me.

    I didn't get on well with toluna I accidentally ordered a voucher for something which I never got and they wouldn't refund me so I gave it up! I tend to not bother with some of the surveys but having the challenge and other people will spur me on to earn/do more:j

    Everything will be ok in the end, and if it isn't ok then it isn't the end :)

    I'll not hold my breath waiting then for the WH one. I'm back up to 8 gold again. I won in the 6pm silver, and got a 1 line for 40 silver, and 2 line for 60. Lucky day or what? Shame I am not as lucky on paid sites. Thinking back, it is on every day, but I must have had 2 week off in that time, so say about 9 weeks. It would add up to a fair bit over the year wouldn't it. £50.

    emma that would be 1.5p per rate then, and the 1st review bonus is double it. so 3p a rate. That will soon add up for you. Wow. You are going to be busy. I'm going to do the same as you guys, I think first though, get looking and see what needs adding. I wrote a travel review on Monday night, which has still not been added on for me, so remember it takes time. Hopefully though it won't get 50p, it might get an E or two.

    Hiya Sam - Still here, haven't logged out yet. :)


    They are brilliant totals hun. You're obviously doing something right - keep it up :D

    I have a few (loads) of odd earrings around - I'm terrible for losing them. I might give that a go. Thanks for pointing it out. :)


    Cup of Tea is a panel a couple of us are on. We got invited by another survey site, so look out and join up if you get an invite. There's no money paid per survey, but you get put in a prize draw. I've earned a £50 am voucher, and two £10 ones in three months, so definately worth doing - I just hoped more of us could get signed. up.
