    Most of the time I get Walmart, sometimes Amazon. They are the same.

    I usually go for eBay or Amazon. Amazon is on 'sale' - 20 points lower than eBay for a $25 GC; 40 points lower for a $50 GC.

    I was able to complete the list tonight - no 'Activate Score' on the list. But it was tough getting to complete a survey. Had to take 12 - finally got one!
    I might make it through this 7 Day Challenge...

    I completed the To Do List last night as well, and it took me friggin forever to get a survey done! I think they make it harder on purpose during Bingo and 7 Day Challenges.

    All I need to complete it is one more Full To Do List, and the rest of my Watch.

    I'm sure soon enough they'll all go up in price. Lowes, Kohl's and CVS were previously on ''sale'' too.

    They're still on sale, just at a higher price.

    I knew this was coming. They just keep making it harder (and less interesting).

    Is anyone else getting bombarded with surveys that are 1-8 mins each and less than 30 pts each??

    I even have a bunch that are less than 10 pts. Who the heck wants to waste their time for that??

    No, I'm not getting those. I sometimes get the 5 mins for 43 points.

    yeah, I get them and they are liars!!! I have never even gotten the 5 point credit for not qualifying. I have answered screening questions for 20 minutes. it goes on and on for what is supposed to be a 7 minute survey. Eventually it says, "we have a survey that takes 30 minutes" or some such nonsense. for 9 freaking points. They are certifiably crazy.
