Earn Money This Fall with Surveys!

Abby H.Leave a comment

It’s that time of year when we start thinking about end-of-year holidays, gift-giving, parties, and new clothes. All of those things cost money. I’m buckling down on my survey taking to earn a little extra money for end-of-year and holiday fun.  Here are some of my favorite survey companies:

Online Surveys with Mypoints– I consistently earn $5-$10/day in Amazon or Target Gift Cards doing MyPoints surveys. Here is a post about how I earned Amazon Gift Cards with MyPoints surveys.

PaidViewPoint– They only send you surveys that you qualify for, so there is no wasted time. Payout is only $10.00, so I make a payout about 1-2 times a month. It’s not tons of work, and every little bit helps!

Pinecone Research: My favorite survey company. Great payouts for each survey, and they only send you surveys that you are already pre-qualified for! And you get $5 when you sign up!

I’ve been a member of Swagbucks for years, and it’s an easy way to earn free gift cards and cash. Right now, when you sign up, you’ll score $10 FREE!

Members join for free and will have access to all of our earning verticals, including, but not limited to, watching videos, shopping for cash back, taking surveys, and redeeming special offers.

Swagbucks is the web’s leading rewards platform, dedicated to providing FREE gift cards to its 12+ million members.

Choose from top retailers like Amazon, Target, Walmart, Starbucks, PayPal, and tons more.

Join Inbox Dollars free and get paid to take surveys, shop online, try name-brand products, and play games online.

You do online activities: Take Surveys, Watch Videos, Shop, and More.

You earn real CASH!

 

Receive cash back from Kashkick when you read emails, complete surveys, take quizzes, refer your friend, and subscribe to special promotions.

Earnings are deposited into your Paypal account!

 

And I post market research and focus group invitations from PRC and AO Opinions at least once a week, so keep your eyes peeled for those opportunities as well. Don’t forget to check out my monthly “Side Quest” Posts for more ways I earn cash and gift cards each month!

August 2026 Monthly Side Quest Totals

Abby H.

Quests require compasses and treasure chests, right?Why am I referring to them as “quests” and not “hustle“?

Hustling indicates moving quickly to earn money. This year, I’m doing a little bit every day, approximately 20 minutes on small surveys and small tasks. I may earn less daily, but overall, I can use small tasks to earn more through compounding.

For about half of August, I could dedicate a consistent block of time each day to earning extra money. My day job started again, so I probably won’t be able to dedicate as much time each day to my side quests.

  • MyPoints:  $15 Amazon Gift Cards
  • PaidViewPoint:  $10.26 Venmo
  • Fetch:  $15 in Barnes and Noble Gift Cards
  • Rebates (WeStock, Peekage, Social Nature, and Aisle ):  $38.94 in Aisle Rebates, $10.97 in WeStock Rebates, and $13.78 Social Nature Rebates
  • BrandClub:  $9.61 Venmo
  • TPT (I make worksheets/flashcards in my spare time for special ed classrooms). This side quest is definitely a slow trickle of money. $2.65 (My lowest of the year)
  • Verasight: $10 via Venmo
  • Receipt Hog: $5.00 Venmo
  • Ibotta: $25.00 Paypal
  • Evidation: $10 via Venmo
  • Gist: $20 Amazon Gift Card
  • Online Research Study: $25 Amazon GC
  • The Insiders: $30 Visa Gift Card

I spend about 20-30 minutes a day completing surveys, scanning receipts, and other tasks. It doesn’t take long, and it helps take a small load off our summer budget.

As always, the links above may be affiliate links, and I might earn money or points if you join any of the above apps or activities. This helps support my blog and family.
