    Store - my University shop ran a competition to win £10 voucher to use with them if you gave them feedback on the new shop opening.

    If that counts.. :P

    But No to the others.

    I've done quite well from Tickbox over the years.
    3 decent prizes (£600 Halfords vouchers, Laptop and digital camera). Don't really go there now that they've changed from prizes to points.

    I've done well from surveys, both in paid rewards and in winning draws sometimes. I got a cheque for £50 from one survey company a couple of weeks ago. It was a build up of my rewards over time - maybe a couple of years I would guess. I currently have around £40 waiting to cash in with other surveys.

    I also win sometimes with GFK - their TV surveys that I do most nights. It only takes a minute to do and I quite enjoy it.

    None of them are big wins/rewards, but if you enjoy doing surveys it's a fun way to get a little extra. Also sometimes they send products to test, so that feels like an extra reward.

    I think my win of plum baby food was from a survey I did. I know I won something from a survey anyway...

    Yeah, I would avoid those ones at the bottom of receipts - 'Win £1000 by giving feedback'. What they don't say is that it's not just for that one company - it's across all the companies that use their survey system. i.e. the £1000 prize probably won't even be from someone shopping at that company. I have insider knowledge :)

    I don't do those product guarantee card surveys either now as they just spam you with extended guarantee schemes!
