The pay $5 per survey. I get 2-3 per month. They take a few minutes to do. well worth it. they do not send spam either.

PM me if interested. i just read the email and cannot post on messageboards

PM me also. i usually get 2-3 per month also. it's a pretty sweet deal.

Yeah, what they said. I get a few a month and they are a very reliable company. Occasionally we get free 'items' to test and give feedback on; that's an extra little perk which is cool.

I got one that I do to, I got a $10 check in my book that I need to cash now. Had to answer a bunch of questions about what kinds of candy bars I eat on a regular basis.

They are sending me some dish washer detergent, I have to use it for a month and they will pay me. Sounds good to me.

PM me and I will send link

they charge you to sign up for this one. What kind of monthly return can you actually expect on this?

I am in one now that is free, so it takes a little while to make money. But it is free.

Just curious, always down for more money, just curious if it is worth the investment .

but does it work. Is it worth it to pay for the $34 to sign up.

What about that get paid to drive your car, sounds like a scam? :spock:

When I signed up it was free. I think it is still free. I've made over a hundred dollars from them, as I have been with them a long time, but I would not sign up if they required me to pay them.

it is still free, I looked over the reg link they sent me via email to refer someone no money needed, I have no idea what people are talking about, it is free to join, well subject to their review of panelists.

on a side note I've already referred a friend

PM me if anyone wants to refer me!

All I can find on their website is

Do you recruit new members through your website or take referrals?
Presently, we do not recruit new members through our website or take unsolicited referrals. However, we will be posting recruitment opportunities through banner ads on various websites from time to time throughout the year. If you see one of these ads, please feel free to sign up with us.

can you PM me the free link. I am down for sure if I can get $100 without having to pay.

Jcranmer

Pinecone is great. I signed up a long time ago, I think maybe Jenny posted it once before when it was open. I would have to say I have made at least $300.00 from them and get to try products not even on the market yet.

I average at least 3 paid surveys per month. That's $5.00 per survey and if they send you something to try, that's another $5.00, and if they ask you to send in the wrappers / containers after you are done (In a postage paid envelope they provide) that can be another $5.00.

It all adds up pretty quickly for 5-10 mins of your time ever couple of weeks. Of course the numbers and types of surveys you get depend on your demographics.

I've been with them for about 2.5 years... and it's actually been a long while since the last time they sent me a product to test (possibly almost a year)... I wonder if my answers to their questionares just aren't what they're looking for to send out the products to test...

TofuNinja

Well I did a fairly long survery yesterday on types of salad dressing. There was no mention of any payment. I was invited into this survey, and I accepted. I'll post if I get paid.

The mention of payment is always in the email they send.

Unless the survey is a 300x series, then those are just considered general questions to figure out which surveys you will get in the future.

100x are the inital survey
200x followups if they send a product (usually)
300x general household questions (no payment)

hmm... I got my first $5 check in the mail, but then my account is no longer working. I emailed Karen, and here's the response I got:


I'm sorry, but in accordance with client agreements regarding the
security of our studies and of their products, we are unable to include
individuals working in industries that may be deemed sensitive or high
risk for breaching the integrity and/or security of our partnerships and
data collection. This can be affected by any member of the household
working in one of these businesses. Unfortunately, we are unable to
include you in our research panel for this reason. I appreciate your
interest in PineCone Research.

So I guess the one survey was it for me? :confused:

(sorry beb... I guess i can't refer anyone now)

please don't dicuss the products you get from pinecone...they are not on the market yet, and by signing the I AGREE portion of the contract, by saying this, pinecone has every right to bring you to court. They've done it before...they've sent out emails about people who've broken the contract.

just looking out for you...
