Some posts may contain affiliate links. Read the full disclosure.

Like the idea of earning cash, prizes and gift cards for taking shopping surveys, playing games, searching the web, watching videos and even reading emails? Me too! While you won’t get rich, you CAN bank enough to treat yourself and the fur kids to some nice treats from time to time…or save up lots of small rewards until you bank enough for something big. It’s fun, and only takes a few minutes a day. I got my iPad and hubby’s Kindle Fire by saving up all the $5 and $10 rewards I earned last year! I also frequently receive samples and full-size products to test and keep.

earn cash and rewards for taking surveys

Here’s a list of some of my favorite site to earn money and other rewards…just remember that you’ll get LOTS of emails and offers to participate so it’s a good idea to use a dedicated email address for all your signups so you can keep them out of your regular inbox if that’s important to you. Also, legitimate survey sites will never ask you for a credit card to join. A few shopping sites will, so only signup for ones you feel comfortable with:

Opinion Outpost: Rewards include get cash, Amazon gift cards, game points, donations to your favorite charities, and more. Everyone is also automatically entered to a $10,000 sweepstakes by joining and taking surveys.

MySurvey: By sharing your opinions about products and services, you are rewarded with Reward Points to redeem for cash and merchandise.

Get Rewards for Shopping, Searching the Web, Watching Videos and more:

SwagBucks: One of my personal favorites, as you know if you follow me on Twitter. Earn Amazon Gift Codes, and other prizes for searching the web, playing games, watching ads and more!

Ebates: This is another of my favorites and I use it every time I shop online. Get 3-10% cash back from just about all online shopping. Over 1,500 participating stores and they list coupon codes, too!
