A few of my favorite things: MyPoints, MySurvey, and Pinecone Research!

September 10, 2009 by

People often ask me for the names of “reputable” survey sites, so I thought I’d share a few of my favorite places:

*Mypoints.com – They will send you a few e-mails a week. If you click on the “get points” link in the e-mail, you will earn points that can be redeemed for gift cards. They have gift cards to pretty much every place you can imagine! You can also earn points for shopping through the links on their site and they also have an option where you can get paid for printing and redeeming coupons that are available on their site! This was one of the first sites I joined, and I have gotten several gift cards to places like Chili’s, Target, JC Penney’s, and CVS through the years! Click here to join.

MyPoints

*Mysurvey.com – You earn points for completing online and mail-in surveys as well as product tests. The points can be exchanged for merchandise or reward checks in $10 increments. The points add up quickly and the surveys only take 10-15 minutes a week to complete. Click on the banner below to join.

Banner Ad

*Pinecone Research – This is my absolute favorite survey site. You can only sign on with them during open enrollment periods and usually through a person who is already a member. If you would like to join Pinecone Research, click here (hurry because when they open up for new people, it usually doesn’t last long!)

**Don’t forget that today is the last day to sign up to join Swagbucks and get the 5 bucks bonus! You can earn a total of five Swagbucks if you sign up by clicking on the banner below and then enter the code melissacode (it is case sensitive). If you’re not familiar with Swagbucks, it is a search engine where you earn “bucks” for searching the web. The bucks can then be exchanged for prizes such as gift cards, Paypal money, and merchandise.

If you feel like you’re always missing the Swag codes when they come out and you haven’t downloaded the new toolbar yet, you should definitely check it out here. I love it because I get a message from TSG (AKA “The Swag Guy”) when a new code is out! It also helps me keep tabs on my Swagbucks and lets me know about other great promotions, too.

To find out more about Swagbucks or learn how to get more out of your account, check out this article here. You’ll be surprised at how quickly your “bucks” will add up!

If you’re new to shopping at CVS, a great way to get started is with a gift card. If you have any prescriptions that you fill regularly, click here for a printable coupon for a new or transferred prescription. The coupon is valid through 10/4/09!

There was also a coupon in the Target ad this week for a $10 gift card with any new or transferred prescription. CVS will accept competitor’s coupons, so if you have a new prescription to fill, you can take it to CVS and get a $10 gift card!
