Is Pigsback the best?

I always hear about people going onto website, clicking a few buttons signing up to a few accounts and being awarded money/points.

For me the only such scheme that has worked is 'Pigsback'. Without spending a penny each week I can easily rack up between 300-400 points and I have traded points for vouchers many times.

I have been searching for a second such site to join to earn some cash but can't seem to find anything even after reading through some of the threads on this board.

What I would like to know is what do you think is the best site(s) for earning money without having to buy anything or wait a year to build up any meaningful amount of money.

    Freefivers is a good daily click site - there is a whole thread dedicated to this on the Referrals Board (my referral is there somewhere :p ). I reckon it's an easy £100-£200 a year for just clicking. I also agree though, that Pigsback is an excellent choice!
    Quidco ~ £3,718 | Greasypalm ~ £354 | Freefivers ~ £45 | Pigsback ~ £260 shopping vouchers + 15 CDs
    Total cashback / freebies / money-saving: 2006 ~ £3,961 | 2007 ~ 3,610 | 2008 ~ £4,159 | 2009 ~ £1,449

    I don't know how long you've been with PB jizba, or how long the "300-400" takes you to get, but remember there is a law of diminishing returns. Once you've been with PB a while and done all the free offers it's not so easy to keep that momentum going unfortunately, so you do need to look at those other sites.

    How the hell do you rack up that many a week?!

    I only get about 70 - 150 a week at the very most... even using the pigsback updated thread on here.

    Im only 16 so cant spend on the internet yet, so have to use the free bits and pieces to gain points. 150 or so is normally the most you can get.

    I have only been a member of pigsback for a few weeks but was soooooo lucky, I won a shopping voucher for 20 pounds this week, so that made me smile.
