What Do People Do with Their Survey Earnings?
Ask a Question
I'm curious as to what everyone does with their survey earnings. There are lots of survey sites and you can get your rewards in vouchers or paid into your PayPal, depending on the sites you use.
I use VO and Nectar canvass. I save my Nectar points so I can do a big shop which saves us a lot of money. I get amazon vouchers from VO. At the moment I'm saving them up to buy things for the house but in the past they have paid for DIY things, baby things, vaping items for my husband, gone towards big present items for family members, gone towards presents for our son or paid for something that we needed.
The money we save is going towards paying off the mortgage and saving for a new house. I see it as an extra amount of money that we wouldn't have otherwise, so I'm always grateful when I get money from surveys.
I just wondered what things people bought with their survey earnings and what they do with the money they 'save'?
jasonfrank12344 that's brilliant that it pays for your transport and £20 a week is a good amount to earn.
jasonfrank12344 Wow. £20 a week is worth having. Which sites do you use to get that, if you don't mind my asking?
I use one site to get Spotify gift cards and that covers my Spotify subscription. Others I use to pay various bills or for gifts for others at Christmas or birthdays.
i used to have swagbucks but it would have taken me over a year to get a small voucher so was not worth it
I usually send any money I make over to my paypal account and then use the money afters its built up to help pay towards Christmas and Birthday Presents
chelseaturpin I don't tend to get payments to my PayPal, I normally opt for the gift cards but it's brilliant that they pay for Christmas and birthday presents
If its a PayPal gift I save the money up and if it's an Amazon gift card it usually always goes to items on my wishlist that I really want
Nadiaparveen mine go towards my wishlist too! I try not to buy off amazon until I have a gift card!
They are my birthday/Christmas fund. I'm currently saving up for my sons birthday he will be 5 in April
Imnotcheap mine are the same. I use them for birthdays/Christmas or things we need. That's what I love about surveys
I mainly use Panelbase - they pay cash and ipos - I get Amazon vouchers. VO don't like me very much but I'm slowly getting there. Last year they covered Christmas and Birthdays
lilyflower I find I have the most success with VO but I've never used panelbase or ipsos, there just isn't enough time to do them all! I don't do the ones that pay cash, I just prefer vouchers.
I do a few - Swagbucks, One Opinion, and Ipsos - I save up Amazon vouchers until I have a decent amount, usually saving for a specific product. I've bought a PS4, TV, Phone, Record player and more this way. I also do Qmee which I usually cash out straight to my bank. Often add this to payments from cashback sites to pay for days out or towards holidays (remember those!)
seasider71 I save them for a specific product too. That's amazing that you have been able to buy those things from survey earnings. I've never used Qmee. I no longer remember what a holiday is!
I use a few sites regularly and I get Paypal or Amazon vouchers. The Paypal earnings I just put towards regular stuff, but I tend to use the Amazon vouchers for treats for myself or for buying gifts.
I ipsos highly recommend it and in a year I can earn about 30 to 100 pounds depending how long I spend each day on it
abedweather55 I've never used ipsos before. I'm already on 4 survey sites so don't think I've got time for another one.
