4 apps to make extra money taking surveys

 One of my favorite ways to earn extra money while sitting on my couch watching TV with my family is by taking surveys. It isn't a way to get rich quick, but it's easy and reliable and doesn't take a lot of mental energy to do. 

Qmee has quickly become one of my favorite survey apps to make extra money. You can cash out to PayPal instantly with no money or to Venmo with as little as a dollar. Sign up with my referral link and you get 50 cents to start.

Swagbucks is the granddaddy of all extra money sites but I just keep coming back to it. Lots of surveys along with other offers, and plenty of ways to cash out. 

Eureka is a newer survey site. They do have a minimum for cashing out to PayPal, but they make it easy for you to make extra money with their surveys by paying you even if you don't qualify and by offering bonus surveys after every cash out.  Use my share code B8A1WB on Eureka and unlock a $1 survey just for signing up.

Super pay me is another great site that offers lots of options for ways to make extra money. Lots of survey routers and offer walls, and you can cash out to PayPal instantly once a day.

That should be enough to keep you busy for a while! Is there anyone site you like to use to make extra money taking surveys? Leave it in the comments!

5 ways to make extra money while shopping

 These days with inflation as high as it is, everyone could stand to make extra money in their spare time. One of the easiest ways to make extra money is with the shopping you're already doing anyway. Here are my 5 favorite apps to help you make extra money while shopping. 

Do you shop at Amazon, Target, or Walmart and gave certain brands you tend to be loyal to and buy again and again? If so, Brand Club is a great app for you to make extra money doing the shopping you already do. Simply link your store accounts, sign up for clubs for brands you typically buy, and then shop as you normally would! When you sync your account (up to twice a day), you'll make extra money for what you already bought. You can also earn extra money by taking surveys about the brands you typically buy.

Another great way to make money with your regular grocery shopping is Fetch. Scan your grocery receipts or link your Amazon and email accounts to sync your e receipts, and you'll make extra money every time you buy one of their featured brands. 

You can't talk about apps that give you extra money for shopping without mentioning  Ibotta. Ibotta is the mother of all grocery rebate apps, with thousands of deals and Cashback offers available for hundreds of stores. Make extra money by meeting bonuses every week to make it even sweeter.

One of my favorite ways to make extra money while shopping is with the Drop app. Simply link your credit card and activate the week's card linked offers and you'll automatically get cash back every time you shop. You can make extra money on the app by taking surveys or playing quick games as well!

Last but not least is another, newer set it and forget it cash back app called Pogo. Simply link your credit card and you get cash back on literally anything you purchase. You can also get paid for checking in with location rewards and make extra money with simple surveys.

So those are my five favorite ways to make extra money while shopping. I hope you find it helpful, and it gets you through this challenging time. Did I forget an app you think I should mention? Please leave it in the comments!

Disclosure: all links in this post are my referral links and if you sign up through them, I'll make extra money in that app. Thanks so much for supporting my writing in this way.

Free money for shopping

I'm at a place right now where I could use a few extra bucks every month to help stay afloat. Have you ever been there? I think most of us have. So I've come up with a few ways to get paid a little extra money for things I do anyway.

Get free money for shopping when I scan my receipts

Do you grocery shop? Do you want to make free money for doing it? When I go grocery shopping, or really any kind of shopping, I always make sure to get a receipt. Why? Because I can scan that receipt on several different apps and get paid for all of them.

The app Fetch pays you for all grocery receipts you scan, and pays a little extra if you buy items from brands on their list. Register with Code GM0PW to get paid $3 in points. 

Coinout is my new favorite receipt app to get free money for shopping. It pays a random amount of money, from one cent to 10 cents, for every receipt you scan, no matter where it's from. You can also forward receipts from your email to them for credit.

Ibotta is probably the granddaddy of all free money receipt apps. The rebates on Ibotta are pretty big if you buy the items they're promoting.

Get free money for shopping without doing anything extra

Probably my favorite app to get money for shopping without even thinking about it is Pei. Just link your card on the app, shop where you normally do (places like Walgreens, Starbucks, McDonalds), and watch the free money roll in. Use my referral link: yinylh to get a free $5 when you get credit for your first purchase.

Another app like this is Drop. With Drop, you choose 4 stores you frequently shop at (options include Whole Foods, Trader Joes, CVS, and more), register a credit card, and every time you shop at one of your preferred stores, you get free money back! Use my referral code qi1mf to get a free $5 when you link your first card.

All the free gift cards

First, sign up with a Swagbucks account, if you don't already have one. This is my referral link, if you don't mind.

Under special offers >> Trial Pay (or just under special offers if you're on a mobile device), there should be an offer that says by a $10 gift card through Gyft.  It may say to buy a target gift card or starbucks or whole foods, but whatever it says, when you click on details, it will say "or any other gift card."

Buy a gift card you will use anyway.  You may or may not also have a $5 promo gyft card for first signing up (which would be a free $5 added to your gift card).

Check out with google wallet.  You will earn 50 points on the gyft app, and you will also get an emailed gift card for a bonus $5 toys r us gift card.

You will earn 450 points on swagbucks, which is enough to redeem for a $5 amazon gift card.
