Snack Time: PayDay

I was so excited this evening when we arrived home to check our mail. I received the checks for doing the online parenting study I talked about here. There were four parts to this study. I was paid $30 for the first part, and then I had to do an interactive study for the next 3 parts. Well, the study sent me all three checks at once ($20 for each study), so I have $60 to cash on Monday! Woo Hoo!! Here's proof (if you can see it since I took the pic with my hubby's phone):

I also had a garage sale with my BFF's and I earned $300. I couldn't believe it. Everything we sold was stuff that was just laying in our basement collecting dust. I was glad to get rid of it! My BFF's did awesome too - each earned over $500! I think the location had something to do with it since it was at my BFF Gin's house during the community yard sale :-)

So, today, I guess you could say I got paid $360 for doing minimal amounts of work. The parenting study took about 20 minutes of my time for all three studies. The garage sale just took me gathering all of our stuff and working today on selling and stuff (my BFF's ran the ship all day yesterday).

I'm all about sharing what's helped me earn and save money. Right now, I'm loving these snacks that have been PayDay snacks for me, and can be for you too:

• Surveys: Check out my snack on earning extra money doing surveys. I have lots of money and points just waiting to be cashed out that I snacked on here. I also share a list of my fave survey sites here if you're interested. A few of the surveys offer sign-up bonuses which are always nice!
• CPA Storm: If you're a blogger (or have your own website) and want to look into making money blogging and using links for stuff on your site (you pick what you want to use too), check out my post on CPA Storm here. My first month was awesome for me!
• Revolution Money Exchange: If you're new to Mommy Snacks and want an easy way to make $25 right off the bat, read about Revolution Money Exchange here and sign up to get your own $25! This offer ends on May 15 so you'll have to move in the next week to get in on it! The best part about this is that when you sign up you can refer your friends and receive $10 for each referral!
• Ebates: I prefer shopping online and Ebates pays you to do it! If you're interested in making cash back on online purchases, check out my snack on Ebates here. If you sign up by May 31 and make an online purchase, you'll get a $10 sign-up bonus! They also have a special promotion going on if you refer friends. Again, you can read all about Ebates here.
• Upromise: Earn money for shopping online and at in-store retailers. You can read all about my Upromise snack here that includes a code to receive $5 just for signing up. This is a great program and I get cash everytime I shop at CVS and Kroger...so basically every week I get money in my account :-)

So, if you signed up for each of those snacks above offering a bonus or FREE money, you'll earn at least $50 just for signing up for stuff that pays YOU! No spam, no gimmicks. You won't get rich, but it's always nice coffee money (wait - I'm scaling back..I forgot!).
