Surveys

If you’re looking to earn a few extra $$ in your spare time, surveys are a great way to do it. Honestly, you’re not going to get rich doing surveys with payouts of about $1-$10 per survey; however, the money you do earn will definitely add up over time, and you know how I’m an advocate for how the little things matter. So, take 10 or 20 minutes a week, grab your favorite beverage, turn on some good music, and start answering questions that will help the marketing companies out there. They’re paying for your opinions based on your demographic, so you’re also letting your voice be heard.

A huge word of advice: Please set up a separate email account specifically for the survey companies. Use gmail, yahoo, hotmail…any of the free email services will work just fine. Not only will it make it easier for you to learn when new surveys are available, but you will also get a lot of junk mail. You definitely don’t want all of it filling your personal email.

Here are a few of my favorite survey companies:
