I received a few more survey checks this week so I thought I would highlight the companies that sent me cash. Cash is good.
HCD Surveys
HCD Surveys is one of my favorites. I earn roughly $80 a year through them. They don’t send a lot of surveys but the ones they do send are enjoyable.
You can cash out to receive a check when your account reaches $10.00. They also have a referral program which pays you .50 per referral.
UCLA Anderson Behavioral Lab
UCLA Anderson offers online studies for cash payment. Generally you will need to check the site to see what’s available.
Payments are made for each survey via PayPal.
Esearch
Esearch doesn’t send a lot of surveys but pay cash via PayPal for each one your qualify for and complete.
Valued Opinons
Valued Opinons is another one of my favorites. I didn’t get a check this week but I did get a product to test which is always fun.
You can cash out for Amazon gift cards, Blockbuster, Visa and many other rewards once your account reaches $20. They do not offer a referral program but do have an affiliate program through Share A Sale.

Most survey companies also offer sweepstakes for their members.

I was recently given the opportunity to try GUM PerioBalance which is a daily dental probiotic supplement that promotes healthy teeth and gums, reduces plaque and fights bad breath.
GUM PerioBalance comes in lozenge form and tastes just like any other mint you would pop in your mouth to freshen your breath.
The difference is that these lozenges have a unique blend of naturally occurring probiotics designed to restore the balance and strengthen natural defense mechanisms of the mouth. Clinical research has shown a 42% decrease in moderate to severe plaque after 28 days of use.
Packs come 28 lozenges per pack. For maximum results you should take one a day after brushing and flossing. They even come in handy packages with the days marked on the back so you don’t forget!
I haven’t been to the dentist since I began taking the GUM PerioBalance but my mouth feels great and I’m all about anything that keeps my oral health in line. Healthy teeth and gums are a must!
Soon you will be able to buy GUM PerioBalance at Drugstore.com and if you are in the Seattle area, Bartell Drugs.
For now you can buy it directly from the GUM E-Store for $24.99. My Good Cents readers can take $2.00 off with promo code PB2OFF

Although it’s been on my to do list for quite awhile, I finally joined YouData last week to see what it was all about.
YouData is a site that pays you to look at advertisements. Now, I have the attention span of a three year old so I didn’t think this would be something for me but I must tell you I was pleasantly surprised.
You get paid to look at the ads and then also to click through to the sites. What I like is that I’m not being sent to spammy sites but to online stores I would actually shop at.
YouData pays every Friday or Saturday. There are no minimum payment amounts. I spent under ten minutes last week looking at ads and received $4.96 in my Paypal account as promised.
I just log into my account once or twice a day to see if ads are available but they also offer a widget you can download to your desktop. The widget shows current ads that are available to you.
YouData also offers a referral program which will pay you .01 for each ad your referral looks at (up to $1 per referral).
So, are you going to get rich using YouData? Well, no… but it does give you few extra dollars in your pocket every week which is never a bad thing.
