Title: How stupid are people? I mean, really?
Post by: SirPeale on April 02, 2005, 02:23:36 pm
So wanting to know what the ten day forcast is, I head over to http://www.weather.com.

One of the ads (http://www.paidsurveysonline.com) states "Live in Vermont?  Get paid $75 now to complete a short survey!"

I recently actually went thru something similar a while ago, where in turn for completing an offer, I was able to get a free Transformers Alternators model.  They ran out of them, so they sent me $50 instead!  So I was curious.

On the site I referenced above, they list prices all over on how much you could get for taking a survey.  Just one catch!  You have to register on the site.  Cost for registering?  $39.99 or something close to that.  Oh yeah, I'm doing that right away, I promise!

They have secret shopper crap like that too!

My wife and I used to do the secret shopper thing, but when we moved, we can't find one for our area (actually, we're looking for several to join) and all the ones I found online were the same thing....pay us some scratch and we'll hook you up.

We signed up for some free survey groups, but they aren't often enough :(

Why on earth WOULD someone pay to get in on these things? Go  give blood for money or something, jeez!

Theres something like surveyclub that I signed up for.  If a survey pays through Paypal, Ill take shots at em.  Never took any though, never got payed anything.  Im always looking for ways to make money.
