Surveys - I tried but very time consuming for litle reward. Earned about 50p an hour.
Cashback - excellent if you needed to make the original purchase in the first place. But they can take a while to come through and they don't always track.
Mystery Shopping - Not bad if you enjoy shopping. Can make a decent amount on this.
Matched betting - By far my most profitable venture over the last year or so. Easilly made a 4 figure sum.
Affilliate marketing - Create a website with wix, webs or wordperss etc or run a blog and use affiliate banners to generate income. Simlar to mystery shopping, you can earn a small amount of pocket money, it's worth it if you enjoy playing around with websites.

I used GB a lot when I did my mystery shooping. I did a few McDonalds and Pizza Hut, but they were slow at paying, I think they still owe me money, I should chase them up really, they probably owe me £20, this was three or four months ago. I found that matched betting and affiliate marketting was more enjoyable for me. If you use affiliate marketting Tradedouble.com is a good place to start to get your html bannersIf you wish in this world to advance, your merits you're bound to enhance; You must stir it and stump it, and blow your own trumpet, or trust me, you haven't a chance.0

....agree. But get in there quick if you're going to give this a go. Offers generally on the decline- nowhere near as good as they were a few years back. Bookies are switched onto the fact that awareness of "Matched Betting" is now widespread.0 -
You can make pennies from survey sites, but rarely pounds. If you have oodles of spare time then it's a nice little piggy bank over time.
If you want decent spare cash though, or want cash more quickly, there are far better options, like ebay, car boots, internet rating, any of the party plan schemes etc. Good luck
The only thing we know for sure, is that we know nothing0 -

I consider myself told off
Although tbf, if you work for GB you are more likely than not to have worked for those chains
