Survey and Coupon sites
Cash Crate - I thought this was one of those "too good
to be true" deals. After all, I heard of people making
several hundred dollars a month off of just Cash Crate
alone. It turns out, it can be done if you
have the time (to be honest, this is not a magical
click-three-times and get money deals). Some of the surveys
can be lengthy. But then again, I managed to make $5.00 in
just a few minutes of figuring out how the site works. 
American Consumer Opinion - This is another great survey
company that won't send you an overwhelming amount of survey
invitations. They do, however, have interesting surveys that
pay, as well as product tests (I think I've done more
product tests for them than cash surveys, which is fine. A
free full size bottle of something I'd use anyway is great).
HCD Surveys - This is another great survey company that
won't send you a million emails per week. HCD has short,
interesting surveys and when they email you, they'll tell
you the amount offered up front. Typically, surveys take
around ten minutes or less and pay about $1.00 each. Hey, it
adds up.
Ipsos Survey Panel – Ipsos invites its members to online
surveys about products and services yet to hit the store
shelves, and you’ll earn rewards such as giveaways, cash
prizes, and gift cards from major retailers for your
participation.
Johnson & Johnson Friends & Neighbors – This is a great
way to try new products AND earn extra cash. I recently
tested a bath and body item for them for which they’re
paying me $20. I had fun testing the product. The $20 is
icing on the cake.
BuzzBack - This survey site sends out invitations once
or twice a week. Survey payments are typically $3.00. They
pay via PayPal (you get your payment within just a few days
of completing the survey).
Lightspeed Panel - Complete surveys for points that may
be redeemed for prizes, cash (PayPal) or Amazon gift
certificates. Points per survey varies. Surveys are
usually interesting and don't take very long.
Mindfield - This is a great testing company and if
you're in the right demographic (sorry, I can't give hints),
you can make great money per survey and test
products. They tell you up front how much each survey is
worth (how much it pays). Surveys are sent out frequently.
MySurvey.com - MySurvey surveys aren't very long and
they're usually interesting. You'll accumulate points for
taking surveys and then request a check when the balance is
high enough. Every 1,000 points = $10.00, and you'll be able
to see beforehand how many points each survey offers. And
you can accept as many or as few survey invitations as you
wish. Personally, I accept as many as I can if I have the
time.
Netverdix - This is a great panel. They don't send
invitations out very often, the surveys are short, usually
interesting and they pay cash (check). Most surveys take
less than ten minutes and pay $1 - $3.
Pinecone - Pinecone sends occasional surveys
that pay $3.00. They used to pay $5.00 but $3.00 is still
pretty good for answering only a few questions (Update:
They offer open enrollment often.
SayNation - Earn points towards gift certificates (such
as Barnes & Noble, Amazon and PayPal) and various prizes.
Surveys are interesting and don't take very long. If
you’re young, you’ll do well with them. They seem to have a
lot of surveys for young males and gamers!
SheSpeaks - Try out products in your every day life and
keep them. This site is mostly for product tests and not
cash or gift certificates, but I've already tested beauty
and bathroom products for them and also a food product (the
item was free and they also sent additional coupons to give
to friends).
The Stanford School of Business (the GSB Behavioral Lab)
- An actual University site, surveys are
human-interest-related. Stanford usually pays survey
respondents in $5.00 Amazon gift certificates.
January 2010 – not accepting new applicants at this
time.
SurveySavvy - They typically pay anywhere from $1.00 to
$10.00 per survey (easily track how much money is in your
account and then request a payment via check). Easy surveys
that don't take a long time.
UCLA School of Management - They pay either in Amazon
gift certificates or PayPal, the surveys don't take very
long, and are usually interesting. Surveys pay between $1.00
and $5.00.
