    Ipsos are the best one for me, well over £100 in Argos vouchers in a year, Valued Opinions are pretty good too, had a bit of a glitch a couple of months back( I thought me dear old gran wasnt gonna get her M&S vouchers for Christmas!!!) I think I had £3 off ACOPs, Home Of Research a bit of time required but not bad. YouGov a bit slow, BUT I find they dont EVER throw you out of a survey after getting free information:mad: (unlike Toluna-formerly Test & Vote). I have read a few comments about YG taking ages to reach the £50 payout but its free money,also it is a site for views on current affairs/politics so check out your profile..NEWSNIGHT IS A PROGRAMME YOU SHOULD WATCH MORE OFTEN!!;) ;)

    great spreadsheet justaguy..ive been writing mine in a book.... now why didnt I use excel...:confused:
    In January I bought my Samsung MP3 player for £80 from Argos with my vouchers....and since I have another £60 in Argos vouchers..

    Ive had a WHSmith voucher. Any cheques I get I put in my ISA...
    Ive had CD's, DVD's and an MP3 docking station which didnt work with my MP3 player, sent it back to Amazon explaining that it did not work with my MP3 player and received a credit, so got a brand new iron..

    Great way to fill in time doing surveys and eventually it pays off so stick with it gang..
    And I have done reading & geography.. too ! ;)

  • hiya, hope someone can help regrading ipsos rewards:-

    1) Do reward points ever expire?? - can I keep 'saving' for more or do they expire after a certain length of time?? - is there a time limit to redeem the points? .......

    2) Can you redeem more than one of the same voucher at the same time? eg could I order 5 Boots £10 vouchers at the same time - could I reedeem all of my points in boots vouchers in one go???

    Would be grateful for any reply, thanks

    Sorry Bargain Hunter I don't know the answer to your questions. I've decided to start saving my points up now rather than spend them all the time. I've got about £30 of M&S Vouchers recently.

    I just received a delivery of bold washing powder to try. I'm so chuffed as I was just running out of washing powder.
    Getting there... A deal at a time. :T

    Well worth it, surveys are a bit boring and often repetitive but the points soon add up. And once you've done a few you get quicker.

    Never had anything sent to try yet though. :confused:

    Had about £100 in last 12 months but trying to save a bit now so i can have some vouchers for xmas but i guess everyone does the same so make sure you order in plenty of time.

    Give it a go!:T :T

    Just a quick update. If you look at my signature, you can see what my Top 5 sites are. IPSOS are definitely worth it. On the other hand ACOP/HOME OF RESEARCH are a complete waste of time, as are TOLUNA, YOUGOV and JUICYBRAINS.

    ACOP is definitely a waste of time. I joined up with them over 2 years ago and during that time I earned a cheque for £2! I rarely ever get survey invites from them and whenever I do I never qualify for them anyway. Have heard bad things about Home of Research so I never bothered with them in the first place.

    The top 5 earners (in no particular order) in my experience are:

    1. Valued Opinions
    2. Global Test Market
    3. IPSOS
    4. Consumerpulse
    5. P!ne.cone

    I like Onepoll and Pureprofile too. You have to really be prepared to log onto these 2 sites every day to access the surveys.
