I do Search Cactus, Netflip, milesource, milespree, Blink, mypoints. Search Cactus is pretty good and it seems to have good customer service and you usually can get your 25 cents daily on a regular basis. Netflip is hard to make much money since you have to spend a lot of time and many of the links don't pay.

I tend to do the Fast cash offers for both, where I tend to make the most money for these sites. Netflip doesn't usually credit you within the expected time frame and I have had to go thru a little effort to get credit for my signups. Search cactus tends to be better organized in this regards and credits me within expected time frames. The few times I haven't been credited, I have forwarded emails showing my sign ups and they credit me sometimes the same day or the next.

I have done blink for awhile, but I am not sure I will continue with it once I decide to cash out. I only accumulate about 600-700 points daily (about 6-8 cents), except on Wednesdays and they have extra 20 pters to click when I can get about 1500 pts. I am not sure if it is worth the time it takes to click on all the links (esp when there is so few 'bonus' slots.

I hope this helps

I do milesource, mypoints and blink as points programs. I do the points almost every day on blink and milesource,a nd so far have not had problems with getting credit on purchases or sign ups (sometimes they need reminding....) and cashing out.

As for surveys, I like NFO (mysurvey) - you get points for surveys and can cash out for cash (1000= $10). I get about one survey a week. They give points for screening surveys (usually 10-20 points) and more for full surveys. As for Greenfield, you can log onto their site and complete their surveys even if you are not invited for that specific one. I check them once a week or so. Vividence is also very good - pays in Amazon GC, but get a survey only once every few months.

These are all tried & true programs that, even though their earning opportunites have slowed down, have outlasted many others that have come and gone the last few years.

Netflip: The paying searches have gotten really slow, but they pay consistently on time. I've never had a problem getting credit for sign-ups - usually faster than the expected timeframe. They have very, very poor customer service.

Search Cactus: You can almost always get your 25 cents a day. They, too, pay consistently on time. Probably the best use of time for the money.

Blink: They're points have also slowed WAY down. About half what they were a few months ago. The points here will build much faster if you can get a few referrals.

Memolink: Had some problems, but they seem to be getting things together. Make sure you agree to receive emails from them - that's where most of the points come from. The last few times I've cashed in they've filled it very quickly.

Milesource: Again, referrals help greatly on this site. It takes a while to build enough points to cash out for anything good unless you shop or do signups. You can make more by playing their games.

Mypoints: If you're not signed up, you should do this one. Like memolink, most of the points will come from emails and watch this board for postings of when & where to find "max". Can take a while to build points, but they have some low redemption levels and a large selection to choose from. Good customer service & great at filling your redemptions on time.

As for the survey sites-
Epoll: Make sure you check their site for new polls. You can usually find a posting on here when they put a new one up. I just cashed out from them for the first time and haven't received my gift certificate yet.

Greenfield: Many more polls on the site. You can cash out at any amount and they're quick to send the checks.

Pinecone: Haven't been a member very long, but had a few surveys. They send the check as soon as they invite you to the survey, it seems.

SurveySavvy: I've been a member here for a year or two and have NEVER received a survey invitation from them.

Another of my favorite sites is Sweepsclub.com. You have to win auctions with your points to get rewards, but if you can earn about 3500 points a day on the site without ever signing up for anything, plus more from their emails. A blockbuster rental usually goes for around 20,000 points. (I've been renting a LOT of movies lately ). Unlike qool (another points for auctions site) they send your winnings promptly - usually less than 2 weeks.

I only do Pinecone Research Surveys and have done two so far. : ) As for rewards, Im active with MyPoints, Blink, Memolink, and Milesource. I will do Search Cactus occasionally, but since I have dial-up, it is not worth my time sitting there waiting for the site to load for 25 cents a day. There goes my power bill. I can see how it would benefit you if you were doing these reward programs at work. Then you wouldnt have to worry about power, time or anything for that matter. The cons outweigh the pros when it comes to participating in NetFlip and SearchCactus programs. But then I would not pay for DSL/Cable to do these online reward programs unless Im getting it for free through work or at someone else's house (LOL). It would not make any sense!

I will have to stop doing these indefinitely, but who knows when Ill cash out. Maybe when I resume doing them, the points might still be in my account.

Good luck!

TOP FOUR: Everyone does these !

MyPoints
BLINK
Milesource
Memolink

[swan0002]

Pointpool has been left out as one of my favorites! Blink has fallen from my graces lately.... way too long to earn GCs with the loss of high paying sites!

[moose1967]

My list...

Pointpool.... only 8 daily clicks right now, BUT their customer service is TOPS!! GC are shipped out within a few days, you also get a bit card worth 200pts to replenish your account. Shopping points & signups are credited within days or hours! I only shop thru them as they are QUICK!

CreationsRewards... another awesome program. Have cashed out 5 times, was great with the points for Ebay bidding. LOADS of easy signups for BIG points.

Milesource...cashed out twice, received Supercertificate within 3 weeks.

Mypoints... cashed out a few times here.

Search Cactus...cashed out a few times here.

AutoMallOnline... points can be convered to Hilton Honors points... have transferred twice. Transfer is immediate.

Blink... cashed out a few times, don't waste your time shopping or doing signups they don't credit 95% of the time & now their TOS says they don't have to. TERRIBLE customer service!

RewardTV... cashed out about 10 times here..... you can earn $5 a week.

Memolink... still clicking.

Milespree... still clicking.

Click to the Magic... still clicking.


I've started & stopped the following because I felt they were a waste of time.

IPTL
Netflip
New FreeRide (old FreeRide rocked!)
Greenpoints... no free clicks anymore.
All Things Rewarded
PrimaRewards
Free Air Miles

[lpelham]

Pinecone and mysurvey are good for surveys. Oh, also Buzzback is pretty good.

As far as general rewards, I do Mypoints, but it is slow going. Blink is slow as well, but I still do it. Have cashed out on Netflip a couple of times, still waiting to cash out on SearchCactus. Email Treasures is slow, but easy, so you can't ask for much more than that.

I think my current favorite is Sweepsclub. It is easy to get points and I usually get a free Blockbuster rental card about once a month.

[bdinalbq]

I do a few but my favorite site is MyPoints.com. I've cashed out so many times, and they always come through, usually within a two week period.

As for surveys, my favorite is Buzzback.com. They like me. They send me money. Therefore, I like them.

[catken]

I only do MyPoints now. They seem to be the most reliable.

As for survey sites, I do MySurvey and Buzzback. I have not registered at Pinecone because I can't find a banner anywhere. Any suggestions? Thanks!

[kdr8490]

For pinecone: go to windough and watch the window there is usually a banner for pinecone...click on it and it will take you to a signup page.

I have been doing pinecone for a while now and they always pay and the check always goes through. You get about 6 surveys a month at $5 each.

[ANGELINOH]

do you really get 6 pinecone surveys a month? i get 1 every few months,they are GREAT with paying wish i would get more

[kdr8490]

mostly every month i get about 5-6...and have been ever since i joined about a year ago.

there are some months (especially after sept. 11) that i only got 2-3.

i guess the amount of pinecone surveys i got makes up for the greenfield focus groups i don't
