Last week I filled out a short qualifying survey for a market research opportunity through AlphaBuzz. The next day I received a phone call and yesterday I was at my appointment.
I spent one hour giving my opinions and at the end of that hour was handed a $100 American Express gift card for my time. Can’t beat that!
If you would like to sign up with AlphaBuzz, you can do that here.
Market research opportunities are great ways to earn a little extra cash and they’re fun! Generally the in person research will be held in larger cities however there are plenty of online opportunities as well. I once was paid $100 to write about my tennis shoes on an online bulletin board!

Last week I received two survey checks totaling $26.10 from Survey Savvy and HCD Surveys.
I’ve written about HCD Surveys a number of times. When it comes to taking surveys this is by far my favorite site. The surveys are generally short and always interesting.
You receive points for each completed survey which can be traded for cash once your account reaches 1,000 points ($10).
HCD Surveys has a referral program on site which offers 50 points (.50) for each person you refer.
For a limited time new members can receive 100 points ($1.00) just for signing up through this special Facebook link. I’m not sure when this promotion ends.
Survey Savvy sends a good amount of surveys and offers product testing.
You will receive a cash for each completed survey and can request a check at any time. They also have a great referral program on site that pays you when your referrals complete a survey as well as their referrals.
I rarely complete Survey Savvy surveys anymore (lack of time) but I do always try to qualify for any product testing opportunities they send. I have tested a number of products from them in the past. Always fun!
