My Precious Pennies: Pinecone Research

Pinecone Research has been one of the many ways that I have earned money for years. It has always been fairly difficult to join since you had to find one of their banners floating around the net in order to join. Well, not now. At least not at this point in time anyway. I received an email asking me to pass along an open invitation. I find that to be wild.

Pinecone pays. Currently it is $3.00 per survey. The surveys aren't all that long. Usually the average time is 10 minutes or less. There will be opportunities to do product testing and sometimes focus surveys as well. They also enter you into sweeps for prizes for doing updates on your profile or a few questions. A very fair site and again, they pay. I earned around $75 cash last year and did at least 8 product tests for them. All the products are name brand. I also got in on one focus group that paid $25.

Here is the email I received...

**It’s not too late to take advantage of this special opportunity to refer households to apply for membership on the PineCone Research panel.** If you have already assisted with this effort - thank you and please feel free to disregard this email.

PineCone Research continues to grow and we invite you to help! We are offering select members the opportunity to recommend membership to a friend or relative who is NOT a member of their household.

Do you know of households that would like to join the PineCone Research Panel? If so, please FORWARD A COPY of this email to each household you would like to refer so that they may click on the registration link shown below. That household should complete the registration form themselves and submit it. REMEMBER THAT ONLY ONE PERSON PER HOUSEHOLD MAY REGISTER. Multiple registrations of the same Household will void all registrations.

Here is the link to the registration:
