    I’m at $21. so close yet so far from the $30 pay out. Takes forever to get up to $30 with videos, emails, and coupons.

    I have been a member since last May… I received 2 checks for $60 each but i stopped doing it around october because my sister was visiting from Germany and than we moved last month… I got paid as much as $5-$6 per survey… It was super easy to do a couple of surveys a day but i have been so busy i just dont have the time… Worth it if you have some time to spare an need extra cash…

    • Karen

      $5 and $6 surveys?! I rarely see ones that crack $1. Most are $.25 or $.50.

      • Michelle

        Keep doing them everyday and you will see bigger ones… you have to get on it quick because the higher dollar ones fill up faster but I didn’t even mess with the ones that were under $1…. not every one paid that much but I would have several $2 or more ones per week. A lot of the higher dollar ones were about home remodeling and that type which we were and are still working on. Plus you get paid to shop through their links…. It added up super quick for me It took me about 2 months each time to earn $60…but I did surveys everyday…not sure if that made a difference…

    Personally, inbox dollars is my least favorite survey-type program. It took a long time to earn enough to cash out and a lot of the stuff I received seemed very spammy. I’m glad others like it, but personally it made me nervous to use on my computer and wasn’t worth my time compared to PineCone or Harrison

    Can anyone recommend a good site to go to to earn money like this one? I’m always nervous about trying one of these sites unless I know someone who has tried it.

    Warning. This thing is no good.

    See, what they don’t tell you is that you will get a ton of emails at first that give you like 2 cents every time you click on them. Once you get to around $21, the emails will stop coming in. You will then only get one every week or 2 weeks.

    Also, those surveys are a total sham, every time I want to do one, it tells me that I either I don’t quality, I’m not in the demographic or they received all of the responses they needed. On the odd occasions that I start one, at the very end it starts spamming you with weird offers. In summary, I’ve never been able to finish one single survey. I made it to $21 just by clicking their annoying emails and by doing some searches here and there.

    At this point I don’t think I’ll ever hit $30, I don’t retire the account simply because I’m hoping to one day get paid out. Once that happens, I’m closing this account for good.

      I second this completely! After spending so much time on this, they stop sending the emails to click on and since the surveys are so hard to qualify for and take so long just for 25 cents, I don’t know if I can ever make it to $30, but if I do, I am closing it as well! So many sites are better than this one!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Sorry to hear that. Thanks so much for your honest review!

  6. Katie

    Thank you for the information! I appreciate it. I would hate to waste my time just to find that out so thank you!

    I can’t believe it but ive made close to $100 this past year. That’s the most I’ve ever been able to make with a part-time rewards site. I stay at home so this is Perfect for me. I now put more of my available time into this site instead of wasting time with others.

    • ihearthip

      For others who use it already, i want to state that i make most of mine on searches, apps, slideshows, and videos. I try to do a little each day. I can’t rely on waiting for emails to come in.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Awesome! Glad to hear it!

    I have used Inboxdollars for a couple of years now. It does take a while to earn money if you aren’t doing everything that they offer. I print coupons through their page. They are the same ones you find on coupons.com, but Inboxdollars gives cents back for using the coupons printed through their page. I also read their emails and get paid an average of 2 cents per email. They also offer shopping, points for searching through their search bar, and videos. I have the app on my phone and it makes it easier to do all of these things with the exception of the coupons. One of the things That I don’t like is that they charge you $3 dollars to cash out when you reach $30 because they have to cut you a check and mail it to you. They do not use PayPal.

    • ihearthip

      The cool thing i like is after i opt to let them take out $3 on a $30 ck, they always put a $3 bonus in my acct so I can get started back up.

    Sendearnings.com does the same thing inboxdollars.com does and I have been able to earn the same amount on both sites.. so instead or earning $30 for a check you could be getting 2 checks at the same time once you got high enough to cash out

    • pandoraaddict

      Send earnings is the same company 🙂

    Like someone mentioned above I love instagc. I’ve tried swag bucks, instagc, inbox dollars, bing and many others. Instagc is my favorite out of all of them. Without trying i earn about $10 a week. I do two surveys a day and get 210 for both. 100 pts. = $1. I really recommend it. here is my referral if you want to join. https://www.instagc.com/714687

    Love inbox dollars. Most money you will get is shopping through their links
