Getting FIREd up 😀

It was extremely painful. Just checked my balance though and I have 40 points, so a lot closer to a payout than I thought 😀 Have also today received payout from the "other" survey company. Much faster than usual - I only had a £2-ish balance built up, rather than the usual £5+ 👍

I remain convinced that you are my female doppleganger - I also have £40

Prolific has slowed right down for me, not even my usual AI stuff

Well, we are practically twins 🤣

Prolific is the one I have the least motivation for - which is frustrating, as it is the most profitable 🤦‍♀️ I just struggle to keep checking it regularly. So much easier when the others just send them to me!

Prolific is the only one I do at the moment, could you tell me what other worthwhile ones are out there? I took a little break but did lots this morning, like £18 worth, although one of them was suuuuper difficult and made me bark at Mr julicorn when all he did was bring me a tea

Ooh, £18 is impressive 😀👍 Right, buckle up....

So the additional ones I do (in decreasing order of usefulness) are: 
One Poll
Norstatpanel 
YouGov
Y-Live 

Cashout is at £20, £10, £50 and £50 respectively. 

I also do Consumer Pulse and Shop & Scan, and use Vypr (which is an app). Receipt scanning is dying a death, but Shoppix is still going strong. 

Think that's it 🤔?

Another one I like to do is mingle. Has its own app so easy to monitor, you get a couple of points when you're not the right criteria for some surveys which is nice and they have a choice of bank transfer or vouchers 🙂

Does anyone else look at their to-do lists and think "I don't want to do any of that" 🙁? I am becoming increasingly convinced that being an adult is basically just repeatedly forcing yourself to do things you don't want to do!

Some days, definitely yes! This weekend has been a bit of a 'forcing myself to do stuff' one for me, I blame the grey weather and the stressful work week I just had / am probably going to have!

Thanks so much for the list of survey companies. That reminds me that back in the day, I didn't qualify for most because I work in market research. Might need to change how I represent my profession in these things. That's one thing that's nice about Prolific as well, they don't care at all about that.

I agree, I'd just pick something at random and be that. That would be quite exciting actually, you could be anything you've ever thought about 😀😀😀 Just need to make sure you remember what you've put, so you don't get screened out 🤣!

P.S. I have got most of the list done now, just cleaning the bathroom to go....🥱 Having a little rest first, though!

I've got such a weird job that there's a few things I could tick without it even being a lie actually, so I think it'll be worth scoping some of these out Well done for tackling your to do list!
