Pine cone is open for new sign ups.

Although now it is really annoying to get your $3 per survey as they make you go through a process where you choose that you want the money immediately.

[aspentosh]

Wait, what. You can get money for doing surveys? I've been getting points and I hate it.

Explain please!

[af1212]

Dumb question, but now do I sign up? I don't see anywhere for registration on their site.

[Poeticxpassion]

aspentosh, you get points for completing surveys and then can turn that into cash.

[aspentosh]

I never saw that in the "catalog". Just as I was about to stop doing the surveys, too. Looking again!

Thanks for sharing, I just signed up!

[Awkward]

Signed up.

[aspentosh]

I see it now. Dangit. I just redeemed my points for a tool case for H. Next time

For those interested in this you may want to google "your city name" + focus groups. I used to do pine cone but I found focus groups to be a much better use of my time. They start at $100.

Me too!!  Just out of curiosity, is there an average of how many surveys people get or is it kind of a crapshoot?

[roseflower]

Yeah I was kind of curious if these are worth your time? Do you spend hours for $3 or....

Are these the ones you actually GO to?

[genet313]

I'd also like to hear about what the rewards are people who have done this are getting.

Ugh! They never need me!

I do tons of focus groups with New England Opinion. I just did one on Monday that paid me $75 to try to set up a pair of Sonos wireless speakers. It took 35 minutes, and at the end, they handed me $75 in cash. Woohoo!

Thanks vigurl...I just did a quick google search and found a place really close to me that does focus groups and signed up.  I checked out their FB page, and it looks like they do anywhere from $65-175 for different groups.  It doesn't look like they have tons, but here's hoping I qualify for something soon!

It's kind of buried.  I had to chat with them to find it. I want to say it's in the last link on the list of options.

The last link on the options list for me is the women's category. If anyone actually finds the link for cash please tell us where it is

[LoveTrains]

Gah now I can't find where the stupid $$$ is.

[LoveTrains]

Found it!!!

How do I select the cash out option?
Follow steps to redeem your rewards. Once logged into the reward site, under Departments List in the left column, click Featured Awards then select Cash Out option from the list. Click the Cash Option at the bottom of the list then select the quantity of $3 amounts you wish to redeem. If you receive payment via Everywhere Reward™ Debit MasterCard®, funds will continue to be loaded onto your card. If you are currently receiving PayPal payments, then you will be able to continue receiving PayPal payments with the Cash Option. Please note that if you request multiple cash payments it will be combined and issued as one payment for your convenience (i.e. 3 x payment will be one payment of $9). Click on "add to cart" and click "checkout" to complete your order.

Squee I just redeemed $15 worth of points. That was exciting.

[panicked]

I have $33 worth. I think I'll leave it for now.

Do you remember when they quoted Grrly as saying she liked to do Treasure Trooper for extra $$? Maybe in the magazine? Except I am pretty sure it was a made up quote.
