    I love Pinecone! You don’t waste 10 minutes and get halfway through a survey only to be told you don’t qualify. If they email you a survey then YOU QUALIFY! It’s that simple. I’ve only been a member for about 3 months but I’ve earned about $30 and gotten probably 3 samples. To me this small amount of reward is worth the 10 minutes it takes to compete a survey. Afterall, it’s free “fun money” πŸ˜€

      Honestly I much prefer Opinion Outpost. I’ve only been a member for about 3 weeks but I’ve already made $70. I was a member of Pinecone a couple of years ago but I missed a couple of surveys they sent me so they dropped me. What I think is funny though is that some of the surveys I get through Opinion Outpost are from Pinecone. πŸ™‚

        I’m going to look into opinion outpost now. Thanks!

      • Susy

        Jennifer, would you please send me the info for outpost?
        thanks… happy holidays everydody!!!!

        Please send it to my email: mayraazucena@yahoo.com

        I agree about opinion outpost. The points add up fairly quickly in a short amount of time. The con is that you will not qualify for a lot of surveys. And when you think you did qualify, you don’t. Other than that, when you do qualify you can possibly take up to 10 surveys a day. Ive been able to test out a number of products and have been asked to do additional surveys for sponsoring companies hosting the survey with an additional incentive.

    i never qualify for this. πŸ™

  3. Kristina

    Here’s to hoping I’m chosen!

  4. Rose

    I would love Toby be apart of pine one

  5. kc

    i have points banked but how do i redeem them for cash? It only shows items under rewards, no cash back option.

    • Crystal

      It’s in there. Go to redeem, featured rewards, then cash option πŸ™‚

    • Kristen

      In the reward section search $3 and it should come up.

    • Bobbi

      If you click on “Featured Awards,” the last thing listed there is “Cash Option.” You get $3 for 300 points.

    • nicole

      I have a hard time logging in to redeem points is it my username and password or am I missing something?

      • Miranda

        Same here. Is the login information different for the rewards site? I can never get in.

    • kcori

      I have a Pay Pal account and they pay me next day,look for cash option on the left side

  6. Crystal

    I love Pinecone too!! In past 3 months I’ve scored $27. Surveys are super easy! One of the first products I did a survey for is now on the market. πŸ™‚ Was kind of fun knowing and learning about it before hand!

    • Michelle W

      I agree!

  7. Sarah

    I just filled out the info. We will see if I am chosen!

  8. Tamara

    Nope πŸ™
    Not what they are looking for.

  9. Kelley Q

    I’ve had a pretty good experience also. The surveys can take longer to complete than I’d prefer — 1/2 hour plus — but at least they’re interesting. I’ve only been part of the “team” for 3 months, but I’ve completed 8 or more surveys and receive a couple of products to test.

  10. Robyn

    I was chosen the last time, about 3 weeks ago? Already done 5 surveys!

  11. Emilee

    I’m still waiting for surveys.. I was accepted and keep receiving surveys about my family and such. Anyone know when I’ll start getting regular surveys over products to test?

    • Belinda

      I’m the same as you. I’ve done two like that so far.

    • Sara

      Same here

    • Holly

      I’ve been a member for over a year. The “household” surveys will continue. I repeatedly am asked if I have a dog in the house. Or a cat. Answers haven’t changed. But I’m not complaining. I’ve redeemed my points for some nice rewards.

  12. Carolyn M.

    Well they did not refuse me,
    but that is about all I know at this point.
    Now I wait and see. πŸ™‚

  13. Jessie

    Used to be part of this but not a fan. Only rarely got surveys and never samples, but I know some love it. I much prefer e-rewards … Hello sbux gift cards!

  14. Spring

    Got 3 surveys in 1 day. First time ever lol

  15. Tammie

    Check instagc out. Instant gift card, you can cash out $1, the lowest minimum in every site. Aeverage $7 a day, not much, but build up fast πŸ™‚

  17. Amber

    I applied and haven’t received anything yet. Is that normal? how long does it take to hear back?

  18. Jeanette

    Yay i can accepted!

  19. Erica

    Hoping that I am a chosen one lol

  20. Angel
