Happy Friday: Winnings from Receipt Survey

Sent from reader, Leah:

A couple of weeks ago, I started wondering if anyone ever won those surveys at the bottom of receipts that ask for feedback in exchange for a chance at winning a gift card. I decided, why not try? I have a lot of receipts from all of these hip bargains after all! The second survey I took was an instant winner! It was from my latest Target shopping trip – $25 Target gift card for two minutes of feedback is not too shabby! Plus, it came in the mail just a few days later. I am now making it my goal to complete more of these when I have a few extra minutes. You never know when you might be a lucky winner. I am curious if any other Hip readers have one gift cards or prizes this way.

HAPPY FRIDAY! 😀

      • Queenjen87

        Got mine too. All $10 … I bet everyone for emails will be $10. Anyone actually get a higher amount?

        • MD

          $10 here too

    • Amanda

      Is there a way to check the amount before actually making a purchase?

      • mel

        sure, just add something to your cart, head to checkout (sign in or as a guest) then under “payment”, enter the card # and pin. It’ll show how much was applied. I got $10. And I got an email that panties are going to be 7/$27 tomorrow & Sunday, so I guess I’ll be heading to the mall with my email. Hope there isn’t any trouble!

        • JA

          I was just going to ask, can I use it in store? I also got $10, and don’t want to pay shipping. So, just show them the email? Thanks!

          • Queenjen87

            It says just show the email. So I assume yes 🙂

        • Marcheta

          I got that email too! Don’t forget your free Limited edition panty they are giving away for using for VS card….and I plan to grab at least one Pink panty to take advantage of the sports bra offer. Sooo 8 panties and a sports bra for $17?!? Heck yeah!

        • Amanda

          Thanks Mel!

    • meganlove06

  12. Jessica

    Awesome and congrats! I spent 3-4 months filling out every receipt survey, and didn’t win, so I gave up. Maybe it’s time to try again. 🙂

  13. kay

    • Marcheta

      Lucky!!!!! 👍

    • Queenjen87

      Awesome! I thought for sure all the email codes would be $10, so glad you got a higher amount! I’m hoping the two I rolled will end up with one being a higher amount 😉

  21. Karen

    I won $1000 from my grocery store once! I fill them out religiously, maybe I will have another winner one of these days.

  22. Colleen

    For some reason the confirmation email was in my spam folder so i didn’t respond. The only thing i have to trade is a free 8 x 11 calendar for shutterfly. If anyone has any they won’t be using I’d love to get some gifts for the teenagers on my angel tree card. Thanks in advance and merry christmas!

    Savinggreen123@gmail.com

    • T

      Colleen, I’d be happy to pass one along to you 🙂 Going to send you an email with the code and pin..check your spam folder just in case it goes there!

  23. Danielle

    Nike is the best. Every time you fill out a survey you get a free $5 code. I go whenever I am in the area and buy something for as close to $5 as I can. The last time I got elites for $2.

  24. DJA

    I encourage everyone to fill out surveys every time you have a nice shopping trip. People usually only take the time when they want to complain, but those survey scores are sometimes really important to the stores and corporate comes down really hard on them if scores aren’t to a certain standard. ( I work at one such store and we really get hassled about survey scores) try to remember the name of any cashier or employee that is nice or helpful and mention it, sometimes they get special recognition. Just a nice (and completely free) way to pay it forward, especially this time of year 🙂

    • Happymama

      I like to point out a good job done well all the time and those surveys are always my favorite! It makes me feel good. I just did one at Costco for an employee that went beyond for an elderly couple. It was very sweet.

  25. Brianna

    I filled one out for Wendy’s a few years ago and was pleasantly surprised with a variety of free item coupons in the mail including two that were for “any menu items or combos for you and a guest. No $ limit. ” My hubby and I selected several items and enjoyed ourselves.

  26. Tracy

    I have won a couple times taking surveys. Target, Toys R Us, and a couple others. Def worth it! Congrats. That’s exciting winning something 😄

  27. rano

    If you ever eat at a Culver’s restaurant they have a survey request at the end of the receipt. It’s very short – about 8 questions. At the end of the online survey you get a code for a free custard. It’s like getting $2 back on your meal. Yummy!

    • Michelle W

      I love doing this survey!! Yum!

  28. Karen

    I just got an email for a cvs survey to get $10 or $2 ecb’s. The survey had some ? Marks for answers and then I got kicked out and got the $2 ecb’s. I emailed cvs about the error and they sent me the $10 ecb’s! Yay, free $12!

  29. Judy Trac

    I always enter these surveys but never win anything

  30. Danielle

    I won this onetime from Olive Garden! However it came with a free magazine subscription for a year THEN it was a requirement to purchase the magazine for 4 years..it ended up costing more than the prize money. Total rip off

  31. Moria

    One time I won $100 Albertsons gift card from winning the drawing from doing the survey.
    I’m about to do a *HOT* survey at the bottom of my receipt from The Cheesecake Factory. It says I will get a $10 egift card for doing the survey. Not a chance for it, but that I will get it!

    • MiisNoel

      That awesome Moria! :] That’a a FREE piece of cheesecake. YUM!!!

      I know our local McD’s (four are owned by the same person) receipts print that if you complete the survey you can receive B1G1Free Egg McMuffin or Quarter Pounder w/Cheese. And Jack in the Box’s receipts also include the survey too … You get two FREE tacos. It’s not much, but it is something if you eat fast food.

  32. Amy

    Does anyone have a shutterfly free calendar code they could part with? Unfortunately I don’t have anything to trade, other than good karma 🙂 and appreciation! Flutterbykisses1@aol.com

    • Aurrando

      I sent you my code hope you enjoy it!😉

  33. Heather

    My SIL actually won $5k about six years ago from Target! Just doing feedback….

  34. CourtneyAmanda

    I have taken many a survey, and have never won a stinkin’ thing! Good to know SOMEONE has ; )

  35. paige

    awesome!!!

  36. judy

    I do Target receipt surveys too and haven’t won. Sometimes it says that you can be an instant winner at the end of the survey but when I get to the end its not there. Anyone know why?

  37. Caitlin

    Unfortunately, I never received my email from them! I did it the second time and everything. I even keep checking my spam folder. If anyone has a code they aren’t using, I would so greatly appreciate it. If I ever end up getting my codes, I’ll be sure to pay it forward to someone else. I wouldn’t be greedy with it. Thanks so much in advance. Happy couponing! My email is cmh611 (at} rcn.com

  38. Amanda

    I’ve won the $25 target gift card once. And that is about it for when I do those surveys. I can’t do the Walmart ones so no chances there .

  39. Monika

    I do those surveys all the time and haven’t won anything yet

  40. Nicole

    I won $5,000 from the target survey in college. They don’t give that much out anymore but man was I eating good in the dorms for a long time. Lol!

  41. Dee

    Wow! Congratulations! 🙂 I used to do the surveys every time I got a receipt that advertised one and never won anything. In fact, I stopped doing them because I figured that nobody actually wins on them.

  42. ankita

    I have macy’s $10 code if anybody wants to trade for WalMart ,amazon, target or domino’s

  43. liz_anne87

    Congrats! I just won my first one this morning. Well worth the few minutes. Plus being in sales I know how much those surveys really matter to the stores.
