Thanks very much for all those recommendations! I will certainly look into them.
I did pop out earlier and did the Streetspotr coffee task. Nice and easy £6 plus my coffee reinbursed
They approved it really quickly as well.

How quickly do you rack up the rewards with shopandscan? It looks like a bit of a faff but might be worth it if the rewards are good.
I've been busy over the weekend
Signed up to Shopandscan (but on the waiting list), Bzzagent, Orchard, and did a test for Whatusersdo. I also signed up to lionbridge, although my first evaluation to find company profile registrations didn't go too well - I only got 8% and thought I had found a lot of info! Appreciate all the tips and advice!
What do leapforce and appen involve? I've read on the site that the leapforce exam is tricky. Appen looked like I actually needed to apply for a web evaluator job for my local area - is that right? How much time do you need for these sort of things?

Leapforce and appen basically both offer web search evaluator work for large popular search engines that everyone uses
The exam for leapforce is difficult yes, as is appen, prepare in the week
You get before the exam and you should be fine

I'll have a look at sorting those applications out over the weekend. It's been a while since I did any exams!
Well, yesterday was frustrating!
When I got to work, I saw the mushroom task was on Roamler at the little Tesco up the road. I thought that would be a good thing to do on my lunch-break but the task had gone by the time I was able to do it!
Instead I used my lunch break to knock out another quick task on Textbroker. I sent it off, then got a message to say my account was blocked until Textbroker had evaluated my first 5 submissions I've emailed them and they said they will speed it along - hopefully by the end of today.
My final frustration was that I got my first survey from WhatUsersDo. I was excited to give it a go and waiting until the end of work to take it. I got myself all set up in a meeting room with my headset and assignment notes, only to fail to meet the criteria after the first question!
Definitely not a day for life wins!

Oh really? That's worth knowing as I just lost out on another WUD task ! I thought if I clicked on it too early I would get timed out as it says you have to complete it straight away. Thanks for the tip! I really want to do a WUD test - how often do the surveys come up? I'm a bit restricted as I can only do them at lunchtime or after 5pm.

Argh! Just missed out on another WUD survey this afternoon! Hopefully I will get one eventually.
On the plus side I got invited to my first Orchard survey today that means I get a free £10 worth of meat :-D that's me sorted for that next week. I successfully completed a few ipoll surveys this week so my balance is already up to £3.30 with £2.49 pending. My textbroker account is now 16.33 EUR. It's all adding up
So Jon do you work full time too?

Yup, Mon-Friday usual hours
I've had a couple of good value articles on Textwriter in the past couple of days. My balance is now €24.86 so I'll cash out on that at the end of the month.
I got paid £20 from Morrisons following a win on one of their prize draws by writing on their market research forum. Very chuffed with that one!
Signed up to MySurvey, and got an email inviting me to download an app that looks at what I buy and which adverts I see. I get 500 point for downloading it and up to 3300 points in total if I answer all the surveys. That will amount to a juicy pay out of £30 on Paypal if I add a few more points from other surveys. It's a 6 week period and 4 surveys to get the full payout so I should reach that target.
I'm not very impressed with iPoll. It keeps letting me answer surveys where I get up to quite high completion (one was 68%!) before it boots me out saying they've met the requirement or I don't qualify. It it also wasting a lot of my time with surveys that I don't meet the requirement for in the first place. Answering questions just about my age, sex, region and postcode several times in one sitting gets very tedious! I'll wait until I can cash out then give up on that one I think. The payout doesn't seem very big for the amount of time you spend answering the questions.
Not much luck on Roamler lately and I still haven't managed to do a WUD survey.
A mixed bag, but overall a positive couple of days!

Well it's been a busy few days! I had the whole of Sunday to myself because my husband was away so I completed my Leapforce application and signed up to Clickworker and Clixsense. Clixsense seems to be a bit pitiful in the earnings. The surveys they have offered me have shown good payback but I haven't actually qualified when I tried to take them. I quite like the Clixgrid for a bit of fun, but I don't think I'll be using this site for much else.
On Clickworker I completed the assessments then tried a couple of tasks. One of them seemed simple enough - do some searches and copy the links in. The problem was it wouldn't accept my answers and kept telling me to read the instructions! I was following them to the letter so I have no idea what I was doing wrong. I gave up on it in the end. I got accepted onto the large 'multi-task' project, but none of the tasks on there looked very inspiring payout wise, and the one I did try wouldn't accept my login. On the whole, I'm not too impressed with Clickworker!
I was happy to finally cross my redemption threshold with the dribs and drabs I was getting on iPoll. Once my completed surveys get approved I'm cashing out on that one and leaving it. It's booted me out of too many surveys for it to be interesting to me.
I had a couple of surveys come through on Quidco Opinions only to find I didn't qualify! I'm not very impressed with them either. The surveys either break or I get cycled through a load where they try to find one I qualify for. I didn't answer all those initial profiling questions for nothing - send me something relevant! Personally I think they should just stick to cashback if this is the best they can do survey wise.
Instead of iPoll and Quidco Opinions, I'm finding MySurvey much, much better. I get several surveys a day with good points rewards, and in a few days I've nearly got enough to claim a £5 paypal payment. The MySurvey topics are interesting and relevant to me, and they are actually quite fun and easy to complete as they have a lot of drag and drop questions and slider bar questions. This makes a nice variation to multiple choice. MySurvey seem to have it sorted as I very rarely waste my time failing to qualify - HURRAY!!! ;D
No more opportunities from WUD yet I've also seen nothing else of interest on MarketForce. eDigital hasn't come up with anything for me yet either, but I've signed up to everything I can following Jon's advice so fingers crossed I'll get something.
My Textbroker account is looking very healthy. After a couple more articles at the weekend I've now got it up to €32.32. I enjoy using this site and have got the hang of getting the research done a bit more quickly.
On Roamler I managed to nab the mushroom task after setting an alarm on my phone to remind me! I did go over the 2 hour time limit but I was able to re-accept it and complete it in my lunch hour. A nice £2 there putting me up to £16.50 (although about £5 of that needs to be deducted to pay for purchases). I have also done another Streetspotr task which gave me £3. Clic and Walk hasn't come up with much for me yet. I've managed to make a grand total of 40p since I downloaded it!
Sorry it's a bit of a lengthy update but a lot has happened in a few days! I've decided my 'cash out' day will be the same as my work pay day - 25th of each month. Then I can see how well I've managed to do in my first month of extra money hunting!

Hey
Click on this and tell me if there are any tasks near you.

There's quite a lot of the building ones near my home address but I won't be able to do those during office hours unfortunately. There aren't any very close to my work address.
I'm keeping my eye on field agent on my iPad to see if it's worth me considering an iphone. My phone contract runs out in May so it could be a possibility for me later in the year. So far the tasks I've been interested in have been too far away but I will keep watch! I know you have a lot of success with it Jon.
Do you know if they are ever going to consider bringing it to Android? I have seen it on the Play store but it says it isn't available for the UK.

Logged into Marketforce today and was very chuffed to see that they are going to pay me the £10 for the survey that didn't go to plan
