Well I think it's bedtime for me- totally swaggered and I can hardly keep my eyes open. Hope tomorrow is a good day for everyone.

Nite all

Thanks for all the advice yesterday (laptop). I feel a little more knowledgeable now.

Hey - I am new to this (as of yesterday) - I currently have 133 SB.

Just wondering - how long do you guys tend to spend on this each day, for what payoff? I imagine there is some kind of "optimal" time to devote, as stuff must dry up after a while!

Debating whether or not to set a target for the month or if I should just take my first month easy :S

Difficult to answer because some days it is easy to get to the set SB target whereas other days it can be very painful if there are no surveys available. I don't have a fixed monthly target but do try to get to the daily target if I have time. Today it was quick and took 20mins. I cash out about £35 per month. It is generally pretty mindless and can be done in front of the TV etc. I know there are people on here who prefer to spend more time on the site to maximise the rewards. As you suggest, try it a month and see what is a good trade off for you in terms of time and reward.

I definitely agree here. I am a huge fan of SB, but only when it's easy-ish!
I'll generally spend about 30 mins in the morning, doing the usual suspects & trying for a DS. If it's not gonna happen, I'll often come back if I have time later in the afternoon/evening. If I can't make the target with surveys, no way am I gonna spend hours with SBTV! But then some days you can get 200-300 with no hassle at all..
As chocforever says, it's pretty brainless a lot of the time, although they do like to check if you're paying attention!

I aim for about 5 pounds PP a week (trying to make extra contributions to a CC bill), but it's generally a little more than that
Hope this helps & welcome

Thanks Chocforever and Kat! Really helpful tips I will stick to just seeing how it goes this month as a starting point.

I might have to start watching TV! (My TV is in a very inconvenient place for my desk which I spend 90% of my time at - time to change I think...)

Looking forward to my first payout, however long away that may be... I am on several of the survey sites MSE recommends and it is always nice to finally get the £10 amazon / argos voucher :money:

87/70. 80sb for an awesome TS on the new Tomb Raider game. Do so many boring surveys on crisps, toilet cleaner, bread... to get one on something genuinely interesting was lovely! Counting down the days until it comes out anyway so had lots to say!

was waiting for this TS and did it this morning. Looks such an epic game!
