    Well a lazier day than intended as I've had an allergic reaction to some face cream and resemble a scaly beetroot, not a good look. A few more surveys done and a bit of tidying but tomorrow should be better.

    Which survey sites are you using Dorastar? I am a bit of a survey site guru i think last year i earned an extra 1300-1400 pound from them.

    So far PA, panelbase, valued opinions, opinion outpost, yougov and swagbucks (although I find that one annoying). I think that's it but there might be a couple more I've forgotten. Am missing out on a few because I have no laptop anymore but that's getting remedied next week courtesy of my dad.

    Face slightly less beetrooty today, just scaly and itchy now, hate it when it freaks out to yet another skin product it's a nightmare. Lots to do and DH is at home all day so perfect day to get out and get stuff sorted ��

    Ouch for the face cream, that must be really annoying?

    I rarely do the swagbucks surveys, other than the odd instant. Keep an eye out for lots of swagcodes today, should get 40sb worth.

    mintvine? Don't do it myself but have seen a few people mention it. Think it depends on your demographics.

  • Try these:

    Power of opinions: surveys come via email they are usually dead short 3-4 mins max.

    Opinium research: same again surveys all come via email and they are 25 to 75p a survey payout is 25quid.

    Onepoll.com is another good one but its like yougov payout takes a few months.

    Perservere with swagbucks i am on my second fiver in 2-3 weeks. Re swag bucks if you can get a friend to use the site you will make sb as they do.

    Signed up for everything that will let me, pinecone was the only one that didn't. Did a few surveys but had to do a trip to the dentist, not my favourite place. Final bits of shopping for DDs holiday and pootling around generally. Running and banking tomorrow, I know how to party!

    I have PM'd you a link to try for Pinecone.

    The other thing I thought of was focus groups? I'm on a mailing list for local big city but have never actually done it, but apparently there are groups for it on Facebook. Might be worth googling focus groups and your local city? Dribs and drabs again but better than nothing. The last one I had sent to me was £40 for an hour and a half.
