I don't spend a whole lot of time on CBF (or any reward sites in general) but I have never had any problem getting paid there. My first card was a $20 Amazon, then I have gotten I think 4 or 5 $5 Paypal cards.

You can see the links in my signature, but I write online for Squidoo and Infobarrel. It's free to so (no sign up or hosting costs or anything.) It's certainly not a get rich quick scheme, but there are a lot of people that are making good money on there.

Oh, another one is Bubblws. You can make quicker money on there by getting likes on your posts.

There are some great surveys sites out there. You won't get rich quick but you can make some splurge money. I do lots and my three best are: MySurvey, Ipsos, and Global Test Market. In fact I have a $50 check from GTM to deposit and I am about 1/4 of the way to my next one with them. Swagbucks is slow to accumulate, but so easy for free money, I don't mind. You can also look for local market research companies and get on their contact lists.

Really? I have redeemed over $100 this year. Granted, I did the surveys for some in 2012, but once I hit the payout threshold, I request a cashout. I have done tons of product trials too: food, detergent, baby wipes, toys. A lot of it comes down to demographics, if you aren't the consumer the manufacturer is looking for, you'll get screened out.

I made a ton on Swagbucks when I was home to do it more. And I rarely did more then the search and earn.

I have to get back into swagbucks. I also use ebates.com in conjunction with bradsdeals to save money on things I purchase online. it's not really earning money, but it is fighting to hold on to the money you do have.

If you can get pinecone research I would highly suggest it. Sometimes I make an extra $30 a month on that.

Wow -- I do Pinecone too but don't make anywhere close to that. I think the most I ever got in one month was 4 surveys (so $12.) Most months I get only 1 or 2. You must be a much more in-demand consumer than I am! But I do love when I get them, so I agree that if you can get on you should. If they send you the survey, then you are already approved. You get paid $3 per survey, paid within a few days either by Paypal or by paper check. And they are pretty quick, generally takes me 10-15 minutes.
