Making money from home is something that people want to do but they just don’t know how to do it or where to find legitimate places to make money from home. There are many different ways that I make money from home and while you are not going to get rich doing them you will be able to make enough that you can go on a vacation that you wouldn’t have been able to go on or pay for Christmas, things that would not normally be in the budget due to finances.
You should NEVER Pay to join a survey company, they pay you so if any survey company ever asks you to pay them know they are not legit and walk away as quickly as possible.
Make sure when signing up for Survey companies that you confirm your e-mail address and fill out your profile so you get the product testing and survey opportunities that best fit you
Tip: Make a new e-mail account just for your survey company sign ups. You will get quite a lot of e-mails and you don’t want to fill your regular e-mail up with them and you want it easier to not miss any paid opportunities.
REAL Ways to Make Money From Home
Pinecone Research
Sign up here. I have been doing surveys with Pinecone Research since 2008 and I love them! They were the first survey company I ever did and they are what got me hooked on doing surveys in general. I have cut back doing them for lack of time (time in general) and wish I hadn’t because the surveys they send are simple and do not take very long and for each one that you do you get paid $3! They also send you products to try as well, we tried a new fruit snack a while ago and then filled out a quick question and answer form of my thoughts and then with in 2 weeks I had my check in the mail!
Reader Comments about Pinecone Research-
Alicia – “I love Pinecone, I have been a member for them for a few months now and love it”
Amber- “ love this company! They send you a Mastercard that your $$ is loaded onto automatically. I only get a couple surveys per month, but it adds up!”
Melinda – “I love pinecone. Simple surveys user friendly.”

Many readers have gotten things like Keurigs, Digital cameras, food items, laundry soap and more!
Here is what a reader said about Opinion Outpost:
“Once I received my first product test from them I’m getting surveys almost daily for product tests. Just in 2 1/2 weeks Ive received Woolite Dark colors Laundry detergent-32 load I believe, Ive received Baby Wipes, Fiber One Kids Bars, and took a survey that I will receive a new yogurt product test as well.

Sign up here. They are a survey company that many MidgetMomma Readers have said they enjoy doing surveys with. They pay cash for surveys and at times send cash along with products to try out!! Many readers have been paid for testing out shampoo, digital cameras and more!
MySurvey
Sign up here. This is another one that tends to send cash before hand when doing surveys. Just remember that you need to do the survey or they will not give you any more opportunities. Most of the surveys I have done with them have been quick ones, so they pay less then other places per survey but many have taken me less then 10 minutes and paid $5. If you were to do 6 10 minute surveys at $5 each that is $30 an hour! Can’t complain about that pay when minimum wage is $7 🙂
