Hi, 
I'm asking for my Mum who isn't too Internet savvy but willing to learn. She's trying to find ways to make a little extra every month she's thinking of surveys and receipt scanning apps? Do these work and what are the best ones please? Are they worth doing? Is there anything else out there that would be worth doing she's hoping for maybe 40 to 70 a month if possible! Thank you!

    Not sure whether she'll be interested in Swagbucks but MSE often have a deal for joining through their link, where if you earn 1,300 SB in 30 days (which is the equivalent of £10 Amazon, MasterCard or Tesco, or a bit less by PayPal) you'll get an extra 2,600 SB. That deal's on at the moment, and she would have to join through the link that's asterisked on this page: https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/deals/swagbucks
    There's also a good thread for Swagbucks here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6323114/swagbucks-2022

    Hi,
    I usually manage to get about £900 a year from surveys - about £100 - 150 of that in the form of vouchers.
    I have found the best ones to be Valued opinions, Opinion outpost, Prolific, Ipsos, Pure Profile, Opiniom, Onepoll
    The slowest earners of these are Pure Profile and Onepoll. The fastest are Opinion outpost and Prolific - I normally get around £40 a month from these two alone.
    I tried Swagbucks but didn’t get on with them at all!
