I have been away to "Survey land"

I sign up for various survey sites. Some do pay, I know. but not usually to me. I do not often qualify, and when I do I am often bored to tears. Like tonight. The surveys I like the best are the ones where I do not qualify for the survey but I get points just for trying. I like surveys on MyPoints for that reason. Also for the reason that survey points combine with other points to get me gift cards much more often. I do not know if surveys are common all over the world. If they are common where you are, let me know. My personality is such that I much prefer something like MyLot where I am responsible for my own self and my earnings. That is one reason I am back.

In Australia I believe they are very popular. I have tried some but like you many I am not who they want to survey. I agree I love sites like myLOT. Have a great day.

I have never been comfortable with surveys, and I stopped to do surveys several years ago. Most of the time, I was spending several minutes to respond to some questions to read that I was not qualified. I suppose I am still in some databases, as I receive often spams to join survey sites, although the last I quit was 4 years ago. I never joined myPoints. I have just checked and it is only for US and Canada citizen according to their terms.

Yep I am a survey taker myself. I've gotten so used to them now I barely notice doing them. I am glad for an outlet like this or other places because yeah you can really get bored by them.

Hi, Jani. Yes, I was falling asleep on the last one, but it is at a site that does pay.
